Felix Lange a9f26dcd0d accounts: cache key addresses
In order to avoid disk thrashing for Accounts and HasAccount,
address->key file mappings are now cached in memory. This makes it no
longer necessary to keep the key address in the file name. The address
of each key is derived from file content instead.

There are minor user-visible changes:

- "geth account list" now reports key file paths alongside the address.
- If multiple keys are present for an address, unlocking by address is
  not possible. Users are directed to remove the duplicate files
  instead. Unlocking by index is still possible.
- Key files are overwritten written in place when updating the password.

Automated development builds

The following builds are build automatically by our build servers after each push to the develop branch.

Building the source

For prerequisites and detailed build instructions please read the Installation Instructions on the wiki.

Building geth requires both a Go and a C compiler. You can install them using your favourite package manager. Once the dependencies are installed, run

make geth

Executables

Go Ethereum comes with several wrappers/executables found in the cmd directory:

Command
geth Ethereum CLI (ethereum command line interface client)
bootnode runs a bootstrap node for the Discovery Protocol
ethtest test tool which runs with the tests suite: /path/to/test.json > ethtest --test BlockTests --stdin.
evm is a generic Ethereum Virtual Machine: evm -code 60ff60ff -gas 10000 -price 0 -dump. See -h for a detailed description.
disasm disassembles EVM code: `echo "6001"
rlpdump prints RLP structures

Command line options

geth can be configured via command line options, environment variables and config files.

To get the options available:

geth help

For further details on options, see the wiki

Contribution

If you'd like to contribute to go-ethereum please fork, fix, commit and send a pull request. Commits who do not comply with the coding standards are ignored (use gofmt!). If you send pull requests make absolute sure that you commit on the develop branch and that you do not merge to master. Commits that are directly based on master are simply ignored.

See Developers' Guide for more details on configuring your environment, testing, and dependency management.
