When used, purges all transactions from wallet.dat and forces a rescan. Useful for solving problems with invalid transactions stored in wallet.dat (for example, after wallet.dat manipulations).
Corrected russian translation.
Added -purgetx command line option. #256

Can you split the russian translation to a new commit, and maybe update to latest git (as per http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=8390.0)?

I am a newbie in GIT. Must I fork&clone your branch?

TheBlueMatt commented at 2:18 AM on May 24, 2011: member
No, just the one russian file. Just make your own branch (off master) and grab the russian bitcoin.po file from my repo (downloading via github should work fine).

Just published a .po file: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=8390.msg138197#msg138197

I hoped that your po-file is based on the last translation file but it seems that it is not.

Anyway, I hope that -purgetx will be in the official client. :)

indeed, needs rebasing to remove the translations

IMHO this belongs in Bitcointools or other similar software, not in Bitcoin (feature creep and its more wallet recovery which IMHO should be encouraged not using Bitcoin, but using external tools as there is too much chance to make it worse), but maybe others disagree?

I think that it may be used with -rescan option... So I think it should be in Bitcoin.

gmaxwell commented at 7:05 AM on July 18, 2011: contributor
Instead, perhaps, there should be a needsrecan key that tools can set? That would be generally useful for tools that modify the wallet.

sipa commented at 8:30 AM on July 18, 2011: member
-rescan only adds transactions not already in the wallet - it will never remove things from the wallet.
Also, it is possible to force bitcoin to do a rescan by clearing (= setting to a singe 0 byte) the "bestblock" entry in wallet.dat.

Agreed, that this is a bit of an esoteric option, that will not be widely used (or tested).
It does make more sense as a bitcointools add-on, as BlueMatt suggested.
