I hope we soon and finally apply the clang-format ;).

Yes, it's completely inconsequential, but pedantically the return true should be on the next line and indented.

a1ba077 Ignore getheaders requests when not synced. (Suhas Daftuar)
|
Shouldn't we still send headers for the blocks we have? |
|
@rebroad Please see related comment here: #5927 (comment). Before IBD has finished, it's possible to be on a chain that would violate a checkpoint, and responding to a getheaders request at that point could then cause an honest peer to disconnect. |

An improvement over bitcoin#6172. Fixes bitcoin#6971 rather than bypasses it as bitcoin#6974 did, and reduces overloading of whitelisting.

Sending headers suggests to our peers that they can download from us, so don't respond to getheaders requests while in initial block download (just as we don't relay blocks on tip updates either).
