How to clone newest Bitcoin/Litecoin source?

[wsxdrfv]

Most articles, datas got googled based on very older version, even 4 years ago.

At that time's version, there is file of src/Main.cpp, src/Main.h  where some key parameters existed.

But recent source (Bitcoin, 0.15.1) does not have above files (Main.cpp, Main.h).

Maybe source code there was moved?

To where and how to locate them all to make alt-coin?
Are there no tutorial or documents about source code location changing guide?

Those files were split into validation.{cpp, h} and net_processing.{cpp, h}.

For lines that you have to change, many of them still exist just in different places. So you can use grep to search for them.

Thanks much!

I saw this series, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDGxGYvkDEE
but this is based on litecoin source version 0.8  (4 years ago version)

So there are many places to revise to make altcoin, are there no video or documents covering all the places needed to revise based on newest version?

Where is "PUBKEY_ADDRESS", "PUBKEY_ADDRESS_TEST" value moved to? originally at src/base58.h

AND what is   " std::vector<unsigned char>(1.0) " ?

originally this was just number based on https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/List_of_address_prefixes

Why they changed this part more hard? Why it is problem just use "PUBKEY_ADDRESS = 44"?
