Available from: https://github.com/petertodd/bitcoin/tree/full-rbf-v24.0.1

eg:

    git clone -b full-rbf-v24.0.1 https://github.com/petertodd/bitcoin.git

What is this? It's Bitcoin Core v24.0.1, with Antoine Riard's full-rbf peering code, and some additional minor updates to it. This does two things for full-rbf nodes:

1) Advertises a FULL_RBF service bit when mempoolfullrbf=1 is set.
2) Connects to four additional FULL_RBF peers.

Doing this ensures that a core group of nodes are reliably propagating full-rbf replacements. We don't need everyone to run this. But it'd be helpful if more people did.

Right now I'd estimate that there are ~30 reliable nodes accepting incoming connections and running the v24.0 version of this branch. Additionally there are another ~50 reliable Bitcoin Knots nodes accepting incoming connections; Knots advertises the service bit, but doesn't have the peering code.
