You should add a test plan.
As far as I know, you used this file to set up the systemd service on a server, so you can write that in the test plan.

Also, I notice that we already have bitcoind.service in this directory. Wouldn't it make more sense to replace or modify that file, rather than ending up with two different but similar versions in here?

Following Antony's suggestion, abandon the creation of a new ecashd.service file and instead replace the outdated bitcoind.service.

There's something wrong with this Diff, it's not showing the actual change against master.
You probably need to squash some commits

I couldn't find any issues between 'in' and '~'. By the way, I tested -deamonwait on three nodes, and it worked perfectly.

Minor nit, but looks like you're making very wide lines in init.md
I'm not sure what the standard is, but usually something like 80 or 100 characters per line is good. I also wonder why the linter doesn't catch this.

This not enforced on markdown files.
One extra duplicated line to remove and it's good to go.
