The --dht-node flag can be used to add DHT bootstrap nodes to new torrents.
This is the only piece of metainfo-related functionality in BEP 5, so we can mark BEP
5 as implemented.
type: added
Adds the command `imdl` torrent verify` to verify the contents of torrents.
This implementation is extremely naive. It does successfully verify torrents,
but it will produce unsatisfying results when a torrent fails verification. In
particular, it won't give any information about which pieces in a file were
corrupt.
type: added
By default, skip the following when creating a torrent:
- Junk files, like `Thumbs.db`
- Files and directories that begin with a `.`
- Files and directories that have the OS or Windows hidden attribute set
- Symlinks
These can be overridden with, respectively:
- `--include-junk`
- `--include-hidden`
- `--include-hidden`
- `--follow-symlinks`
type: changed
Colored output can be controlled on the command line with
`--use-color auto|always|never`. The default is `auto`, which enables
color if `imdl` detects that it is printing to a terminal.
Color can be disabled entirely by setting the `NO_COLOR` environment
variable.
