Re: Skip verifying local data when adding torrents

Why try to "fix" this at the .resume level at all? Why not just replace most of loadProgress() with a simple for loop that sets all of the pieces' mtimes to the current time or something?
As you can see in the source code, loadProgress() actually sets all of the pieces' timeChecked to a same time ...

Skip verifying local data when adding torrents

Firstly, in the previous 2.1x version of Transmission, I found a trick to do this. I just wrote a script to build a .resume file corresponding to the torrent I wanted to add *BEFORE* I really added it to Transmission and moved that .resume file to the directory where it should be. The .resume file I ...
