Problem
As per some conversation on the Telegram RPC channel, we should make the RPC-output changes in #33419 more obvious
Summary of Changes
Add to changelog
Some additional details for posterity: before #33419 , for multiple addresses within the same block, those pulled from local Blockstore were returned in signature order, whereas those from Bigtable were returned in block-inclusion order. This meant, for nodes backed by Bigtable, there were inconsistencies in return data over time and at the boundary between local Blockstore ledger and Bigtable (
minimumLedgerSlot
).After the change, ordering will be consistent regardless of which data store a particular slot is queried from.
