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.

Replace uses of Encoder2 with prefixed encoders

Throughout the code, there are myriad instances of
Encoder2<CompactSizeEncoder, Bytes/SliceEncoder> used to encode a length
prefixed element vector or byte slice. With the new prefixed encoders
these can all be replaced with the PrefixedBytes/SliceEncoder types.

Replace uses of Encoder2<CompactSizeEncoder, Bytes/SliceEncoder> with
the corresponding PrefixedBytes/SliceEncoder type.

This commit is a straightforward internal cleanup in the rust-bitcoin library. It replaces verbose pairs of encoders (a length counter plus a raw slice/bytes encoder) with new combined 'prefixed' encoder types that do the same job. There is no change to the actual bytes produced on the wire, no new behavior exposed to users, and no indication of a security bug being fixed.

This commit only updates generated API snapshot text files to reflect a function renaming (adding '_decoder' suffix to several decode helper functions). It changes no source code, logic, or behavior. There is no security relevance.

docs: Update dep-tree

The workspace dependency trees have changed a bit:

- Added `internals` dep to `encoding`
- Added `crypto` crate

Run `cd docs; rm dep-tree; just gen-dep-tree > dep-tree`.

consensus_encoding: Add decode_from_hex_with

Recently, decode_from_*_with functions have been added that take a
Decoder generic type instead of a Decode generic. The decode_from_hex
function does not currently have such a counterpart.

Introduce decode_from_hex_with counterpart to decode_from_hex.

This commit adds a new public helper function called decode_from_hex_with to a Rust Bitcoin encoding library. It is a pure feature addition that mirrors existing decode helpers and gives callers a way to decode hex strings by specifying a decoder type directly, rather than through an existing Decode trait. There is no bug fix, no change to existing behavior, and no security relevance in the code itself.

This commit only updates generated API snapshot text files in the rust-bitcoin repository. These files list what functions and types are publicly exposed by the library, similar to a table of contents. No actual source code, logic, or behavior changed. The additions simply record two new helper functions that were already added elsewhere in the project. There is no security issue here.

This commit only updates two generated API listing files (text snapshots of public functions and types). It records that several new script helper methods, such as checking whether a script is a pay-to-public-key-hash or pay-to-witness-public-key-hash output, are now part of the public API. There is no actual code change, no bug fix, and no security-related content in the commit message or diff.

Remove unused const values

The const values SEGWIT_MARKER and SEGWIT_FLAG are only used in
consensus encoding code. Since the duplicate implementation in bitcoin
for the old traits is being deleted, the duplicates of these const
values can be removed and only the copies in primitives left.

Remove const values SEGWIT_MARKER and SEGWIT_FLAG.

This commit simply deletes two unused internal constant definitions (SEGWIT_MARKER and SEGWIT_FLAG) from one source file because identical copies already exist elsewhere in the project. It is a routine code cleanup with no functional or security change.

Use TxOutEncoder for TxOut encoding

TxOut has a TxOutEncoder newtype for consensus encoding TxOut
objects, but the Encode implementation currently uses a bare
Encoder3.

This fails to properly encapsulate the inner state of the
TxOut type and its encoding behavior. Switch the implementation
to use TxOutEncoder.

This is a small internal code cleanup in the rust-bitcoin library. It changes how transaction output (TxOut) objects are prepared for serialization so they use a dedicated wrapper type (TxOutEncoder) instead of directly combining two lower-level encoders. The commit message frames this as improving encapsulation, but the diff itself does not show any actual security bug, exploit path, or behavior change in the serialized output. It is best treated as a defensive maintenance patch.

This is a small internal code cleanup in the rust-bitcoin library. It changes how transaction input (TxIn) objects are prepared for serialization so they use a dedicated wrapper type (TxInEncoder) instead of a generic three-field encoder. The commit message frames this as better encapsulation, but the diff itself only shows a refactor with no change to the actual serialized bytes or to public behavior. There is no direct evidence of a security vulnerability being fixed.

This commit only updates an automatically generated API listing file. It reflects a change in how an error type is declared in the source code (from a public enum to a public struct wrapper), but the commit itself does not contain any actual code changes, logic changes, or security fixes. There is no indication this is a security patch.

AI review queuedClose FromHexErrorby Mitchell Bagot · f0e8e7bc · Jun 30, 2026 · 4 filesMessage 41 · ThinInformational 18Details
Commit message · Mitchell Bagot

Close FromHexError

The FromHexError is currently unreleased but is necessary for hex
functionality. Since it is not ready for 1.0 as an enum, it should be
enclosed in a private struct as is typical for error types from units,
primitives, etc.

Rename FromHexError enum to FromHexErrorInner and add a new
FromHexError struct to privately wrap the inner enum.

This commit is a routine API design change, not a security fix. It renames an internal error enum and wraps it in a private struct so the library can keep the error type flexible before its first stable release. No vulnerability is patched and no exploit is possible.

Adjust fuzz targets to use consensus_encoding

Various fuzz targets use the old consensus code for serialisation and
deserialisation. Since we want to remove this consensus code, the fuzz
targets must be updated.

Replace all uses of old consensus code in fuzz targets with
consensus_encoding.

This commit only updates three text files that list the public API surface of the `bitcoin_hashes` crate. It records two newly added methods (`hash` and `with_input`) on the `HashEngine` trait. There are no code changes, no bug fixes, and no security-sensitive behavior introduced by this commit itself.
