Why do we compare strings here instead of use the `enum DatabaseFormat`?

I think since we don't set `shell` for this specific step, we use [PowerShell by default on Windows](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idstepsshell). Slightly unclear [documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#exit-codes-and-error-action-preference) on what the expected exit code behavior is.

@ldionne, do you know if `-O2` could have any adverse effects on coverage created with clang's `-fprofile-instr-generate -fcoverage-mapping`?

Thanks for the doc links. I guess this means there is no reliable way to get fail-fast behavior as expected by default on GHA for Windows?

Also, it looks like it would be possible to set a default shell. Also, it looks like it would be possible to use bash from Git on Windows.

Thus, I wonder if the default shell could be set to bash globally for our GHA to get reliable fail-fast.

An alternative would be to implement the CI logic in a standalone script with a well-defined language and be

There might be some limited value in using cmd/PowerShell on Windows in order to execute in a closer-to-end-user environment and tolerate the "&& \`". But I'm not totally against switching to bash/scripts either.

These docs are indeed outdated, last update was 4 years back: https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/developer.bitcoin.org. Only the code in this repo should be treated as source of truth.

Almost ACK 7f57ad00d301b9564ece511d2e99cb0678b21174, just fix the path to the binaries which were recently relocated from `src` to `bin`.

I would be happy to review an extension to this that also does the fuzz part. That would involve compiling into another directory for fuzzing, running the fuzz tests, gathering their `.profraw` files as well and adding `--object=buildfuzz/bin/fuzz` to `llvm-cov`.

nit: `test_runner.py` also supports `-j N` for parallel jobs.

After https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31161 the binaries are now in `bin/`:

```suggestion

> Is this comment outdated? I don't understand where are the default args here that are referred to in the above comment.

In C++, function overloading can be used as a tool to set default values for function parameters. This is done here, by setting the default value in the function implementation, as opposed to in the function signature.

For me, it is not so much about tolerating the ugly "&& `", but more about it being easy to forget in the future, or it already being missing in other run commands. Allowing a foot-gun that allows the CI to silently pass on failures seems like it should be avoided, but no strong opinion, if reviewers are fine with this.

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32059#issuecomment-2724442464)
Looking at the diff, this seems to be dropping the linux restriction, so "adding support for macOS" doesn't seem entirely accurate. It could be better to say "drop linux restriction" or "add support for non-linux". For example, OpenBSD may work as well now.

Thank you for highlighting this. I started looking into it and found a language level `assert` at the start of this function. Doesn't that make the `Assert` inside the for-loop redundant like it was before this change as well?

Oh I see this comment referred to the new implementation of this older function caused by the introduction of function overloading here. Yeah, I am not in favour of this as well, seem unnecessary for just a `version` param, the function signature defaults can suffice.

I was trying to say in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31936#discussion_r1986292978 that a default doesn't make sense at all here (in any way), because:

* Every call site that omits the default has the same fallback, so changing the default in the future will make review harder.
* Every call site needs to document the default in the RPC help anyway, so simply using the default from the docs is self-consistent and self-documenting and avoids the need for a default here

Checking the [policy documentation](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/doc/policy) I think I noticed that some things are outdated since Version 3 transaction relay / TRUC.

Some sentences [like](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/policy/packages.md#package-fees-and-feerate):
