Something is wrong with task age calculation

[tiagommmelo]

Hello community.
A long time ago, I've changed some of the custom attributes of TaskWarrior to suit my needs, then I stopped using it for some time. Now I'm getting back to it and just noticed that something is wrong with how the age is being calculated:

As you can see, the age is being calculated getting this value 0.033 and multiplying it by 2.
I know that there's an easy way to fix the coefficient (2 in this example) by inserting the line below in the .taskrc file and some int or float value for 'x':

urgency.age.coefficient=x

By the way, my config is set with the value 2

What I did in the past, however, was editing the value for the number that is multiplying it and I cannot find where I did it and how I actually changed that value (it should be something different than 0.033 I believe) as there's nothing like this in my .taskrc config file.

How could I change it back to default without having to reinstall or some other drastic measure, as I have other configurations on .taskrc file that I would not like to change?

Thanks in advance

The 0.033 in this case is the age of the task, as a fraction of urgency.age.max both in days. So for example if urgency.age.max is 300 and the task is 10 days old, the "age" for purposes of urgency calculations is 10/300 = 0.033. With urgency.age.coefficient = 2 that makes a total of 0.066 "urgency points" contributed by the task's age.

got it, it changes over time and it is not something I've altered by mistake, but the usual behavior of taskwarrior and, if I want to boost that, I should just change the urgency.age.coefficient. Thanks a lot for clarifying, @djmitche
