-systemd init file
-=========
-
-The systemd init file (`contrib/init/bitcoind.service`) has been changed to use
-`/var/lib/bitcoind` as the data directory instead of `~bitcoin/.bitcoin`. This
-change makes Bitcoin Core more consistent with other services, and makes the
-systemd init config more consistent with existing Upstart and OpenRC configs.
-
-The configuration, PID, and data directories are now completely managed by
-systemd, which will take care of their creation, permissions, etc. See
-[`systemd.exec (5)`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html#RuntimeDirectory=)
-for more details.
-
-When using the provided init files under `contrib/init`, overriding the
-`datadir` option in `/etc/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf` will have no effect. This is
-because the command line arguments specified in the init files take precedence
-over the options specified in `/etc/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf`.
