5a77abd4e6[style] Clean up BroadcastTransaction() (John Newbery)7282d4c036[test] Allow rebroadcast for same-txid-different-wtxid transactions (glozow)cd48372b67[mempool] Allow rebroadcast for same-txid-different-wtxid transactions (John Newbery)847b6ed48d[test] Test transactions are not re-added to unbroadcast set (Duncan Dean)2837a9f1ea[mempool] Only add a transaction to the unbroadcast set when it's added to the mempool (John Newbery) Pull request description: 1. Only add a transaction to the unbroadcast set when it's added to the mempool Currently, if BroadcastTransaction() is called to rebroadcast a transaction (e.g. by ResendWalletTransactions()), then we add the transaction to the unbroadcast set. That transaction has already been broadcast in the past, so peers are unlikely to request it again, meaning RemoveUnbroadcastTx() won't be called and it won't be removed from m_unbroadcast_txids. Net processing will therefore continue to attempt rebroadcast for the transaction every 10-15 minutes. This will most likely continue until the node connects to a new peer which hasn't yet seen the transaction (or perhaps indefinitely). Fix by only adding the transaction to the broadcast set when it's added to the mempool. 2. Allow rebroadcast for same-txid-different-wtxid transactions There is some slightly unexpected behaviour when: - there is already transaction in the mempool (the "mempool tx") - BroadcastTransaction() is called for a transaction with the same txid as the mempool transaction but a different witness (the "new tx") Prior to this commit, if BroadcastTransaction() is called with relay=true, then it'll call RelayTransaction() using the txid/wtxid of the new tx, not the txid/wtxid of the mempool tx. For wtxid relay peers, in SendMessages(), the wtxid of the new tx will be taken from setInventoryTxToSend, but will then be filtered out from the vector of wtxids to announce, since m_mempool.info() won't find the transaction (the mempool contains the mempool tx, which has a different wtxid from the new tx). Fix this by calling RelayTransaction() with the wtxid of the mempool transaction in this case. The third commit is a comment/whitespace only change to tidy up the BroadcastTransaction() function.

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.

License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
