X-Git-Tag: tor-0.2.2.20-alpha~13 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=45c302efe0156636fbe1ce9e14c724e47949fa71;p=thirdparty%2Ftor.git Correct information about support for guards being called helper nodes. The spec stated that support for the helper-nodes command would be removed in 0.1.3.x, however support for this command is still in Tor. Updated the spec to reflect this and added a node that the command is deprecated. --- diff --git a/doc/spec/control-spec.txt b/doc/spec/control-spec.txt index 14b5903f59..66ad11c53c 100644 --- a/doc/spec/control-spec.txt +++ b/doc/spec/control-spec.txt @@ -502,10 +502,10 @@ Status = "up" / "never-connected" / "down" / "unusable" / "unlisted" - [From 0.1.1.4-alpha to 0.1.1.10-alpha, this was called "helper-nodes". - Tor still supports calling it that for now, but support will be - removed in 0.1.3.x.] - + [From 0.1.1.4-alpha to 0.1.1.10-alpha, entry-guards was called + "helper-nodes".
