This will mainly help distributors by giving a way to set system or package defaults that a user can override, and that a later package can replace. No promises about the particular future location or semantics for this: we will probably want to tweak it some before 0.2.3.x-rc The file is searched for in CONFDIR/torrc-defaults , which can be overridden with the "--defaults-torrc" option on the command line.

o Minor features
|
|
- Slightly change behavior of "list" options (that is, options that
|
|
can appear more than once) when they appear both in torrc and on
|
|
the command line. Previously, the command-line options would be
|
|
appended to the ones from torrc. Now, the command-line options
|
|
override the torrc options entirely. This new behavior allows
|
|
the user to override list options (like exit policies and
|
|
ports to listen on) from the command line, rather than simply
|
|
appending to the list.
|
|
- You can get the old (appending) command-line behavior for "list"
|
|
"list" options, by prefixing the option name with a "+".
|
|
- You can remove all the values for a "list" option from the command
|
|
line without adding any new ones by prefixing the option name
|
|
with a "/".
|
|
- Add *experimental* support for a "defaults" torrc file to be parsed
|
|
before the regular torrc. Torrc options override the defaults file's
|
|
options in the same way that the command line overrides the torrc.
|
|
The SAVECONF controller command saves only those options which differ
|
|
between the current configuration and the defaults file. HUP reloads
|
|
both files. (Note: This is an experimental feature; its behavior will
|
|
probably be refined in future 0.2.3.x-alpha versions to better meet
|
|
packagers' needs.)
|
|
|
|
o Minor bugfixes:
|
|
- Restore behavior of overriding SocksPort, ORPort, and similar
|
|
options from the command line. Bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha.
