[tor-commits] [tor/master] Divide torrc.sample into torrc.sample and torrc.minimal



commit 8a79b56ac6709dfddaa15d9c76d0f856a502a6a1
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Sep 2 19:10:42 2014 -0400

    Divide torrc.sample into torrc.sample and torrc.minimal
    
    torrc.minimal is now the one that should change as infrequently as
    possible.  To schedule an change to go into it eventually, make your
    change to torrc.minimal.in-sample.
    
    torrc.sample is now the volatile one: we can change it to our hearts'
    content.

+  o New features (sample torrc):
+    - Add a new, infrequently-changed "torrc.minimal".  This file's
+      purpose is similar to torrc.sample, but it is meant to be small
+      and change as infrequently as possible, for the benefit of
+      users whose systems prompt them for intervention whenever a
+      default configuration file is changed. Making this change
+      allows us to update torrc.sample to be a more generally useful
+      "sample torrc".
