* If you accidentally try to add a lot of duplicates -- for example, by starting up with a lot of duplicate torrents in the watchdir -- then coalesce all of them into a single error dialog instead of spamming the desktop with a different dialog for every duplicate. * Make the duplicate torrent dialog's error message slightly terser to make it accommodate a long list of torrents: omit the ".torrent" file suffixes and show an abbreviated form of the existing torrent's hash. * Support searching by torrent hash in the filterbar's text entry. This is useful when copy/pasting the hash from the duplicate torrent error dialog and is also consistent with the GTK client behavior. * Copy the GTK client's behavior of appending ".added" to the end of .torrent files after they've been added to the session. |

About
Transmission is a fast, easy, and free BitTorrent client. It comes in several flavors:
- A native Mac OS X GUI application
- GTK+ and Qt GUI applications for Linux, BSD, etc.
- A headless daemon for servers and routers
- A web UI for remote controlling any of the above
Visit https://transmissionbt.com/ for more information.
Command line interface notes
Transmission is fully supported in transmission-remote, the preferred cli client.
Three standalone tools to examine, create, and edit .torrent files exist: transmission-show, transmission-create, and transmission-edit, respectively.
Prior to development of transmission-remote, the standalone client transmission-cli was created. Limited to a single torrent at a time, transmission-cli is deprecated and exists primarily to support older hardware dependent upon it. In almost all instances, transmission-remote should be used instead.
Different distributions may choose to package any or all of these tools in one or more separate packages.
Building
Transmission has an Xcode project file (Transmission.xcodeproj) for building in Xcode.
For a more detailed description, and dependencies, visit: https://github.com/transmission/transmission/wiki
Building a Transmission release from the command line
$ tar xf transmission-2.92.tar.xz
$ cd transmission-2.92
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install
Building Transmission from the nightly builds
Download a tarball from https://build.transmissionbt.com/job/trunk-linux/ and follow the steps from the previous section.
If you're new to building programs from source code, this is typically easier than building from Git.
Building Transmission from Git (first time)
$ git clone https://github.com/transmission/transmission Transmission
$ cd Transmission
$ git submodule update --init
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install
Building Transmission from Git (updating)
$ cd Transmission/build
$ make clean
$ git pull --rebase --prune
$ git submodule update
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install

Code Style
You would want to setup your editor to make use of uncrustify.cfg and .jsbeautifyrc configuration files located in the root of this repository.
If for some reason you are unwilling or unable to do so, there is a shell script which you could run either directly or via docker-compose:
$ ./code_style.sh
or
$ docker-compose build --pull
$ docker-compose run --rm code_style
