I have been looking for all the source releases of Bitcoin and I am surprised that there is not one place to have them all.
With time they alse becomes nearly impossible to compile without the dependencies pre-compiled too.

I know that http://www.bitcointrading.com/forum/bitcoin-clients/original-bitcoin-source-code-archives/
had some, but this website is giving back an error.

Sourceforge has deleted all the work posted there when it moved to Github.

Github has version 0.11 up to latest (0.17.0.1 at the moment) but the dependencies are almost impossible to get for the old versions, they would not compile without errors with the current depends/compiler versions.

Nakamoto institute has pre versions until 0.13 https://satoshi.nakamotoinstitute.org/code/

But where are the version in between? And are there version WITH the dependencies so that they can be modified for learning and compiled?

If you get some, I will host them permanently on a domain and guarantee that they will be still here as long as I am alive.

The idea would be to have as many as possible version, ready to be compiled (with pre-compiled dependencies) on windows, Linux, MAC... as many as possible.

Today, I cannot find any old version that would be included with dependencies and easy to compile.
