Backporting

Timeline

  • Immediate: patchset needed as soon as possible
  • Next Minor Stable Release: patchset that needs to be verified in nightly before backport
  • Eventually: patchset that needs to be verified in alpha before backport
  • No Backport (preferred): patchset for the next major stable

(Optional) Justification

  • Emergency security update: patchset fixes CVEs, 0-days, etc
  • Censorship event: patchset enables censorship circumvention
  • Critical bug-fix: patchset fixes a bug in core-functionality
  • Consistency: patchset which would make development easier if it were in both the alpha and release branches; developer tools, build system changes, etc
  • Sponsor required: patchset required for sponsor
  • Other: please explain

Change Description

Handles what screen to show within onResume() (which is called whenever the app comes back from being backgrounded) based on the torController's lastKnownStatus. We need to do this because when the app was backgrounded the viewModel doesn't currently update with onTorStatusUpdate() like it normally does

How Tested

Background the app while bootstrapping and come back when it should be bootstrapped and observe it behaves as expected
