From 410b30b9caaf59a78a29d8b924e14395b7daa59d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Martin=20Habov=C5=A1tiak?= Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2021 22:19:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] docs: remove warning about pruned nodes This removes a warning in the documentation saying that pruned nodes are not supported. This is no longer the case as [pruning is supported since 0.13](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5154). So instead it now says pruning is supported and notes the version and implications of pruning. --- docs/INSTALL.md | 9 ++------- docs/release-notes/release-notes-0.14.0.md | 7 ++++++- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/INSTALL.md b/docs/INSTALL.md index 9bb48e7f..6e1241cd 100644 --- a/docs/INSTALL.md +++ b/docs/INSTALL.md @@ -248,13 +248,8 @@ time of writing of this document, there are three available chain backends: `btcd`, `neutrino`, `bitcoind`.
