Does the history explain itself?

Message quality measures whether a commit identifies its scope, purpose, rationale, testing, and supporting references. It does not change the security-severity score.

Security candidateAdd unwrapping function to XOnlyPublicKeyby Mitchell Bagot · 4c5ffffc · Nov 1, 2025 · 1 fileMessage 68 · AdequateInformational 15Details
Commit message · Mitchell Bagot

Add unwrapping function to XOnlyPublicKey

The XOnlyPublicKey struct wraps a similar secp256k1 struct, and can
be constructed from the secp256k1 type. For code that requires the
secp key type, we have no way to convert our XOnlyPublicKey type back
to a secp type.

Add an into_inner() function on the XOnlyPublicKey struct
implementation to return the internal secp256k1 XOnlyPublicKey.

Change secp256k1 format in docs

The docs occasionally use 'secp', 'Secp256k1' and 'secp256k1' all
to refer to the secp256k1 library. This is inconsistent and conflicts
with the naming of the Secp256k1 context object.

Change instances of 'Secp256k1' to lowercase and use full name in
place of 'secp' shorthand.

This is a minor code-quality change. A constant used only in tests that require the 'alloc' feature was not itself behind that feature gate, causing a compiler warning (Clippy lint) when building without that feature. The patch adds the missing feature gate so the constant is only compiled when needed. There is no security impact.

This commit is a test-only fix. The developers accidentally removed the lines that include separate test files for several hash modules (RIPEMD160, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512), meaning those tests were not being compiled or run. The commit re-adds those test modules and makes minor updates to the tests themselves so they compile with the current API. There is no change to production code and no security vulnerability is introduced or fixed.

This commit is a purely cosmetic documentation and comment change. It rewrites Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) references from formats like 'BIP-32' or 'BIP 68' to a new standardized four-digit format like 'BIP-0032' or 'BIP-0068' across changelogs, examples, source code comments, and markdown docs. No program logic, code behavior, or security properties were changed.

Improve bip links

We decided (in #4859) to use markdown links with the link at the
bottom of the docs section.

PR #4881 closed this PR, this is a follow up to fix the links.

This commit only reformats documentation comments. It changes how web links to Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) are written in source-code documentation, moving the actual URL to the bottom of the doc block rather than embedding it inline. No program logic, math, cryptography, or transaction handling code is modified.

This commit fixes a typo in an example program's error message. The message previously told users to call a non-existent function; now it points to the correct function name. There is no security issue.

This commit fixes two typos in code comments within an example file. One misspelled word ('scep' instead of 'secp') and one grammar issue ('an watch-only' instead of 'a watch-only') were corrected. There are no code behavior changes, no security fixes, and no functional impact.
