[tor-talk] Difference between "torrc" and "torrc-defaults" file ?

[Andre Mankel]

Hey Ben,

Tor uses torrc-defaults as the default config file and then (later) overrides them with torrc. This behaviour is just in case when torrc is missing any required information.

When I go in a TorBrowser installation into folder

then there are two torrc files which seem to be used:

"torrc"

and

"torrc-defaults"

What is the difference?

Are both used? In which sequence?

Which statements have higher priority?

Ben
