- this allows the client to listen on via -bind specified addresses (e.g. 127.0.0.1), even when a network (IPv4 in that case) was blocked via e.g -onlynet="Tor" - introduce enum BindFlags to avoid passing multiple bools to Bind() - make -bind help text clear we ALWAYS listen on the specified address - remove an unused variable - remove 2 unneeded IsLimited() checks before calling Bind(), which does these checks anyway - usage case: specify -bind=127.0.0.1 -onlynet="Tor" to allow incoming connections to a Tor hidden service, but still don't allow other IPv4 nodes to connect / get connected |

Bitcoin integration/staging tree
Development process
Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think their feature or bug fix is ready.
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the bitcoin development team members simply pulls it.
If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on the mailing list: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=bitcoin-development
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing. Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if they don't match the project's coding conventions (see coding.txt) or are controversial.
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are regularly created to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin. If you would like to help test the Bitcoin core, please contact QA@BitcoinTesting.org.
Feature branches are created when there are major new features being worked on by several people.
From time to time a pull request will become outdated. If this occurs, and the pull is no longer automatically mergeable; a comment on the pull will be used to issue a warning of closure. The pull will be closed 15 days after the warning if action is not taken by the author. Pull requests closed in this manner will have their corresponding issue labeled 'stagnant'.
Issues with no commits will be given a similar warning, and closed after 15 days from their last activity. Issues closed in this manner will be labeled 'stale'.
Requests to reopen closed pull requests and/or issues can be submitted to QA@BitcoinTesting.org.
