commit c94f7669daecea8994561e25e7f2c3ed6f44d478 Author: Damian Johnson <atagar@torproject.org> Date: Wed Jul 20 07:44:23 2011 -0700 fix: writing blank torrc without GETINFO option When "GETINFO config-text" we save a blank torrc rather than providing the user with an error. This option was introduced in Tor 0.2.2.7.
