From 1e3306d47bd3ad57cdca723db3195cd359600092 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michalis Kargakis Date: Sat, 26 Jul 2014 15:26:05 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Dont use github link to line number If any line above the linked line is ever added or removed from chainparams.cpp, the link pointing to L.123 will continue to point to L.123 but the start of the comment won't be there. See andrew.yurisich.com/work/2014/07/16/dont-link-that-line-number/ for the workaround i have used on this. --- ch07.asciidoc | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/ch07.asciidoc b/ch07.asciidoc index 650342d7..c06e17d2 100644 --- a/ch07.asciidoc +++ b/ch07.asciidoc @@ -71,8 +71,8 @@ The first block in the blockchain is called the _genesis block_ and was created Every node always starts with a blockchain of at least one block because the genesis block is statically encoded within the bitcoin client software, such that it cannot be altered. Every node always "knows" the genesis block's hash and structure, the fixed time it was created and even the single transaction within. Thus, every node has the starting point for the blockchain, a secure "root" from which to build a trusted blockchain. -See the statically encoded genesis block inside the Bitcoin Core client, in chainparams.cpp, line 123: -https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/chainparams.cpp#L123 +See the statically encoded genesis block inside the Bitcoin Core client, in chainparams.cpp: +https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/3955c3940eff83518c186facfec6f50545b5aab5/src/chainparams.cpp#L123 The genesis block has the identifier hash +000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f+.
