c88e87c3b2be3f97b712107e04285d06dfef3878 Remove nFileVersion from CWalletScanState (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The wallet file version is stored in the "minversion" record, not the "version" record. However "version" is no longer used anywhere except to record the highest versioned client which has opened a wallet file (which is currently only used to check whether this was most recently opened by a 0.4.0 or 0.5.0rc1 client which had a broken wallet encryption implementation). Furthermore, "version" was logged to the debug.log which is confusing because it is not the actual wallet file version.
This PR changes it so that this confusion largely no longer exists. The wallet file version logging is changed to use "minversion" and reading and writing the "version" record is no longer publicly exposed to prevent potential confusion about whether the actual file version is being read or written. Lastly, in the one place it is actually used, the variable name is changed from nFileVersion to last_client to better reflect what that record actually represents.

ACK 35e60e7, I compiled locally as a quick sanity check.

utACK 35e60e790f2cd602d1bdd0be835d27f0ba37efa9. This code still pretty confusing, but a little simpler now. And the previous log statement was really misleading and useless compared to the new one here.
meshcollider:
Looks good, thanks! utACK 35e60e790f2cd602d1bdd0be835d27f0ba37efa9

Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree
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.
For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/, or read the original whitepaper.
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 and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
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, that are run automatically on the build server.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The Travis CI system makes 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.
Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
