Subject: #165: make 'tahoe restart --force' the default behavior: warn but do not stop if... 
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/vdrive/%22news.html/somewhere?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fdb0200ecad291e259fe46ca03bc5aeccd5008ee;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

#165: make 'tahoe restart --force' the default behavior: warn but do not stop if restart is used on something that wasn't a running node, and always try to start it afterwards. This is particularly important for #315 (restart -m), because otherwise a single not-already-running node will prevent all nodes from being restarted, resulting in longer downtime than necessary
