Intro: Never change the prune checkbox after the user has touched it #658

   Re-PR from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18729

   Now includes a bugfix too (-prune=2+ disabled the checkbox, but -prune=0/1 did not; this behaviour is necessary since -prune overrides GUI settings)

   Do we need to set m_prune_checkbox_is_default to true here? Wasn’t it true already having entered into this block?

   Title and description mismatch of the PR confuse me, I tested bitcoin-qt before and after the change and I don’t see the difference in the behaviour (from the UI point of view, haven’t checked the proper prunning). I’ve ticked & unticked the prune checkbox and set a value, verifying the value is persisted in the config. Also combined the previous starting qt with -prune param set to 0, 1 and 600. Perhaps I’ve some config that bypass this change? Could you please clarify? Sorry if I miss anything too obvius here.

   -prune=2+ disabled the checkbox

   Looks like a bug in the master branch, as it should be like that:

   0$ ./src/bitcoind -prune=2
   1Error: Prune configured below the minimum of 550 MiB.  Please use a higher number.

    🤔 There hasn’t been much activity lately and the CI seems to be failing.

    If no one reviewed the current pull request by commit hash, a rebase can be considered. While the CI failure may be a false positive, the CI hasn’t been running for some time, so there may be a real issue hiding as well. A rebase triggers the latest CI and makes sure that no silent merge conflicts have snuck in.
