At first, we put the tor_git_revision constant in tor_main.c, so
that we wouldn't have to recompile config.o every time the git
revision changed. But putting it there had unintended side effect
of forcing every program that wanted to link libor.a (including
test, test-slow, the fuzzers, the benchmarks, etc) to declare their
own tor_git_revision instance.
That's not very nice, especially since we want to start supporting
others who want to link against Tor (see 23846).
So, create a new git_revision.c file that only contains this
constant, and remove the duplicated boilerplate from everywhere
else.
Part of implementing ticket 23845.
This feature should help programs that want to launch and manage a
Tor process, as well as programs that want to launch and manage a
Tor instance in a separate thread. Right now, they have to open a
controlport, and then connect to it, with attendant authentication
issues. This feature allows them to just start with an
authenticated connection.
Bug 23900.
Our socket accounting functions assumed that we'd never be asked to
close a socket that we didn't open ourselves. But now we want to
support taking control sockets that we inherit -- so we need a way
of taking ownership of them, so we don't freak out later on when we
close them.
Stop attempting to unconditionally mirror the tor repository in GitLab
CI. This prevented developers from enabling GitLab CI on master
because the "update" job would attempt to run, causing an unuseful CI
failure. Fixes bug 23755.
Create a function that tells us if we can fetch or not the descriptor for the
given service key.
No behavior change. Mostly moving code but with a slight change so the
function can properly work by returning a boolean and also a possible fetch
status code.

Skip test_config_include_no_permission() when running as root, because
it will get an unexpected success from config_get_lines_include().
This affects some continuous integration setups. Fixes bug 23758.
Add more explanation in doc/HACKING about how to read gcov output,
including a reference to the gcov documentation in the GCC manual.
Also add details about how our postprocessing scripts modify gcov
output.
