Shorten comment to fix lint
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only shortens a code comment to satisfy a Rust lint rule. No program logic, behavior, or security properties were changed.
No action required; this is a non-security documentation/comment-only change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff changes a single line comment in bitcoin/src/consensus/encode.rs from ‘Disable lint because this match is reachable on < 64 bit platforms’ to ‘This is only reachable on < 64 bit platforms’. The #[allow(unreachable_patterns)] attribute and the surrounding match expression remain identical. There is no functional change.
