Add filename and SHA256 hash for Windows Rust package When running `make download` in the `depends` directory, the `download-win` target (which `download` depends on) generates an error when it runs the commands defined in `check_or_remove_sources`: ```Makefile sha256sum: /home/vagrant/zcash/depends/work/download/rust-1.16.0/..hash: no properly formatted SHA256 checksum lines found funcs.mk:242: recipe for target '/home/vagrant/gitian-builder/cache/common/download-stamps/.stamp_fetched-rust-.hash' failed make[1]: *** [/home/vagrant/gitian-builder/cache/common/download-stamps/.stamp_fetched-rust-.hash] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/vagrant/zcash/depends' Makefile:153: recipe for target 'download-win' failed make: *** [download-win] Error 2 ``` The reason for the error is that `depends/packages/rust.mk` defines `rust_file_name_linux` and `rust_file_name_darwin` but leaves `rust_file_name_mingw32` undefined. A directory of available rust downloads is here: https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/index.html The closest windows analog in that list (using the same version number as currently defined in `rust.mk`) appears to be `rust-mingw-1.16.0-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.tar.gz`. A corresponding sha256 value is also given in `rust-mingw-1.16.0-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.tar.gz.sha256`. After adding these values to `rust.mk`, the rust-mingw tar package was downloaded along with the rest of the dependencies and the above error message went away. |

Zcash 1.0.15
What is Zcash?
Zcash is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy through a sophisticated zero-knowledge proving scheme that preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata. Technical details are available in our Protocol Specification.
This software is the Zcash client. It downloads and stores the entire history of Zcash transactions; depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process could take a day or more once the blockchain has reached a significant size.
Security Warnings
See important security warnings on the Security Information page.
Zcash is experimental and a work-in-progress. Use at your own risk.
Deprecation Policy
This release is considered deprecated 16 weeks after the release day. There is an automatic deprecation shutdown feature which will halt the node some time after this 16 week time period. The automatic feature is based on block height and can be explicitly disabled.
Where do I begin?
We have a guide for joining the main Zcash network: https://github.com/zcash/zcash/wiki/1.0-User-Guide
