The old way was way too fragile and had felt like it had more special cases than normal cases. (see #1874, #1860, #1834, etc) It became very obvious the old algorithm didn't work when we made the output be pretty and try to show the user the command they need to run in 5ecc7c7200bda43f02f9a04fb684ad4f3614c48a for #1746) The new algorithm is to map the prefs (current and new) back to flags and then compare flags. This nicely handles the OS-specific flags and the n:1 and 1:n flag:pref cases. No change in the existing already-massive test suite, except some ordering differences (the missing items are now sorted), but some new tests are added for behavior that was broken before. In particular, it now: * preserves non-pref boolean flags set to false, and preserves exit node IPs (mapping them back from the ExitNodeID pref, as well as ExitNodeIP), * doesn't ignore --advertise-exit-node when doing an EditPrefs call (#1880) * doesn't lose the --operator on the non-EditPrefs paths (e.g. with --force-reauth, or when the backend was not in state Running).

Tailscale
Private WireGuard® networks made easy
Overview
This repository contains all the open source Tailscale client code and
the tailscaled
daemon and tailscale
CLI tool. The tailscaled
daemon runs primarily on Linux; it also works to varying degrees on
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Darwin, and Windows.
The Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
Using
We serve packages for a variety of distros at https://pkgs.tailscale.com .
Other clients
The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI wrappers that are not open source.
Building
go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}
If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh
instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled
If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of
build_dist.sh
, please do the equivalent of what it does in your
distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.
We only guarantee to support the latest Go release and any Go beta or release candidate builds (currently Go 1.16) in module mode. It might work in earlier Go versions or in GOPATH mode, but we're making no effort to keep those working.
Bugs
Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.
Contributing
PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference bugs.
