Looks like he and the guy he had been talking to directly account for ~95% of the line changes over the last 15 years. The next 2 highest account for ~3.5% but haven't been active in years.

LGTM

Users should read through the changes before updating

https://trac.transmissionbt.com/browser/branches for pre-2016

https://github.com/transmissionbt from 2016

When we untar the source, the "Changelog" file is empty

  diff -U0 -r transmission-2.94 transmission-3.00|less

Look for compelling reasons to update

When statically compiled 2.94, stripped binaries were 3.4M; not too bad

Still had to make fixes by hand to get it to compile with musl. These were reported by a musl user on Github years ago. Oh well

Need to include bsdqueue.h instead of sys/queue.h in these two files

   third-party/miniupnp/portlistingparse.h

   third-party/miniupnp/upnpreplyparse.h

Needed to fix some libcurl problem in libtransmission/web.c, too

https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/5580

The need for web.c is debatable; "webseed" is not peer-to-peer, who even uses it

Wonder if its even worth the effort: https://trac.transmissionbt.com/log/trunk/libtransmission/we... "pulling my hair out"

Might have miscounted but looks something like

   Year Releases
   2006 6
   2007 8
   2008 19
   2009 50
   2010 21
   2011 10
   2012 11
   2013 7
   2014 2
   2015 0
   2016 1 +
   2017 0  
   2018 2  

   + In 2016 started using Github

Looks like the sys/queue.h problem got fixed in 3.00

Would be nice if there was a compile-time option to disable the BEP 17 BEP 19 feature
