torrc man page missing components for Bridge line

The man page for torrc Bridge currently has an entry: Bridge [transport] IP:ORPort [fingerprint]

an example line i was just given had a bit more than this:

Bridge [transport] IP:ORPort [fp] [cert=...] ] iat-mode=0

perhaps a description of iat-mode and its values would be helpful? and extend the config line?

Milestone: N/A to Tor: unspecified

The extra args including iat-mode are specific to obfs4 and should not be part of the tor man page, especially since it's an entirely separate piece of software.

That said, the documentation for the bridge line could clarify that, transports can add arbitrary things to the bridge line.

+1 on this.

Trac:
Milestone: Tor: unspecified to Tor: 0.2.???
Points: N/A to 0.1

Milestone renamed

Trac:
Milestone: Tor: 0.2.??? to Tor: 0.3.???

Finally admitting that 0.3.??? was a euphemism for Tor: unspecified all along.

Moving up its milestone so it doesn't get forgotten.

(catalyst just bumped into the same bug.)

Trac:
Milestone: Tor: unspecified to Tor: 0.3.2.x-final

(I'd take a patch for this in 0.3.1 if someone writes one in time)

LGTM; just needs a changes file. (And maybe also an explanation that you'll need to look at the transport's documentation to see what kind of arguments it supports?)

Updated with changes file and your suggested addition.

This support looks like it was added to config.c in 757b03aacbf7051194bbe9faa2bfcc59e4cc3392 which is around tor-0.2.4.10-alpha?

Updated again, adding bug number and first-appeared details in the changes file.

lgtm; update looks good. Merged!
