#24431: Provide fallback mirror lists -------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: iwakeh | Owner: metrics-team Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Metrics/CollecTor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Actual Points: Parent ID: #24429 | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: -------------------------------+------------------------------
Comment (by karsten): I started working on a CollecTor module for retrieving and storing fallback mirror lists. It uses [https://www.eclipse.org/jgit/ JGit] internally. In the first run it clones `tor.git` and copies all versions of `fallback_dirs.inc` to the local file system. In subsequent runs it fetches `tor.git`, checks for updates to `fallback_dirs.inc`, copies only new versions to the local file system, and pulls from origin/master. This code is not ready for production yet. I'll resume working on it as time permits. If there are questions/comments on the general approach, I'm happy to hear those! -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24431#comment:1> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
