libtorrent 2.0.9 regression: content after the end of the file is not removed.
Kirill8P opened this issue · comments
Hello!
I made three identical files with 1000 text lines in different directories and another file with 500 text lines (exactly the same)+one unique text line. Then created a torrent file and downloaded it to different directories .
libtorrent 1.2.19.0: extra lines cut off, files 100% match.
libtorrent 2.0.9.0: extra lines are not cut, files do not match.
I tested three clients qBittorrent 4.5.5 libtorrent 1.2.19, qBittorrent 4.5.5 libtorrent 2.0.9.0, qBittorrent 4.6.9RC2 libtorrent 1.2.19 and qBittorrent 4.6.9RC2 libtorrent 2.0.9.0.

Nothing is clear from the video, but it seems to be related #7472
from qBit qbittorrent/qBittorrent#19686 qbittorrent/qBittorrent#19553
The behavior of (automatically) truncating files was changed. It's now up to the client to explicitly truncate files (docs).
