Important new features:

  • Subwallets: 7538a94, d1b8aef, 82086c9 (see the Subwallets wiki page for
    additional information)

  • BIP69 ordering of transaction inputs and outputs: 6b2c138

  • Support for Microsoft Windows via MSYS2: dcab109, 13ab257 (see the
    Install MMGen on Microsoft Windows wiki page for complete
    information. Windows users should note the following caveats:

    • no autosigning support
    • no Monero wallet creation/syncing support (due to password file
      descriptor issues with monero-wallet-cli)
    • due to unpredictable behavior of MSYS2's Python getpass()
      implementation, passwords containing non-ASCII symbols should be entered
      using the --echo-passphrase option or via a password file. Otherwise,
      these symbols might end up being silently ignored.
    • Though MSYS2 support is well tested and considered stable, it’s a new
      feature and other glitches might remain. If you think you've found a
      bug, don't hesistate to file an issue at
      https://github.com/mmgen/mmgen/issues.

    of Keccak hash function: a7126ed
  • dependencies on all Ethereum packages except py_ecc eliminated: 66d0f76,
