+Scripted diffs
+--------------
+
+For reformatting and refactoring commits where the changes can be easily automated using a bash script, we use
+scripted-diff commits. The bash script is included in the commit message and our Travis CI job checks that
+the result of the script is identical to the commit. This aids reviewers since they can verify that the script
+does exactly what it's supposed to do. It is also helpful for rebasing (since the same script can just be re-run
+on the new master commit).
+
+To create a scripted-diff:
+
+- start the commit message with `scripted-diff:` (and then a description of the diff on the same line)
+- in the commit message include the bash script between lines containing just the following text:
+ - `-BEGIN VERIFY SCRIPT-`
+ - `-END VERIFY SCRIPT-`
+
+The scripted-diff is verified by the tool `contrib/devtools/commit-script-check.sh`
+
+Commit `bb81e173` is an example of a scripted-diff.

+How to Upgrade
+==============
+
+If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
+shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
+installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on Mac)
+or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
+
+The first time you run version 0.15.0 or higher, your chainstate database will
+be converted to a new format, which will take anywhere from a few minutes to
+half an hour, depending on the speed of your machine.
+
+The file format of `fee_estimates.dat` changed in version 0.15.0. Hence, a
+downgrade from version 0.15.0 or upgrade to version 0.15.0 will cause all fee
+estimates to be discarded.
+
+Note that the block database format also changed in version 0.8.0 and there is no
+automatic upgrade code from before version 0.8 to version 0.15.0. Upgrading
+directly from 0.7.x and earlier without redownloading the blockchain is not supported.
+However, as usual, old wallet versions are still supported.
+
+Downgrading warning
+-------------------
+
+The chainstate database for this release is not compatible with previous
+releases, so if you run 0.15 and then decide to switch back to any
+older version, you will need to run the old release with the `-reindex-chainstate`
+option to rebuild the chainstate data structures in the old format.
+
+If your node has pruning enabled, this will entail re-downloading and
+processing the entire blockchain.
+
+Compatibility
+==============
+
+Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using
+the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later. Windows XP is not supported.
+
+Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not
+frequently tested on them.
+
+Notable changes
+===============
+
+GUI startup crash issue
+-------------------------
+
+After upgrade to 0.15.0, some clients would crash at startup because a custom
+fee setting was configured that no longer exists in the GUI. This is a minimal
+patch to avoid this issue from occuring.
+
+0.15.0.1 Change log
+====================
+
+- #11332 `46c8d23` Fix possible crash with invalid nCustomFeeRadio in QSettings (achow101, TheBlueMatt)
+
+Also the manpages were updated, as this was forgotten for 0.15.0.
