commit 56ee61b8aed058c20edc9c7e10dc48f1ab798bbc Author: Roger Dingledine arma@torproject.org Date: Wed Jul 23 12:23:49 2014 -0400
Add and use a new NumEntryGuards consensus parameter.
When specified, it overrides our default of 3 entry guards.
(By default, it overrides the number of directory guards too.)
