-git-annex 4.20131024 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * webapp: Fix bug when adding a remote and git-remote-gcrypt
- is not installed.
- * The assitant can now run scheduled incremental fsck jobs on the local
- repository and remotes. These can be configured using vicfg or with the
- webapp.
- * repair: New command, which can repair damaged git repositories
- (even ones not using git-annex).
- * webapp: When git repository damange is detected, repairs can be
- done using the webapp UI.
- * Automatically and safely detect and recover from dangling
- .git/annex/index.lock files, which would prevent git from
- committing to the git-annex branch, eg after a crash.
- * assistant: Detect stale git lock files at startup time, and remove them.
- * addurl: Better sanitization of generated filenames.
- * Better sanitization of problem characters when generating URL and WORM
- keys.
- * The control socket path passed to ssh needs to be 17 characters
- shorter than the maximum unix domain socket length, because ssh
- appends stuff to it to make a temporary filename. Closes: #[725512](http://bugs.debian.org/725512)
- * status: Fix space leak in local mode, introduced in version 4.20130920.
- * import: Skip .git directories.
- * Remove bogus runshell loop check.
- * addurl: Improve message when adding url with wrong size to existing file.
- * Fixed handling of URL keys that have no recorded size.
- * status: Fix a crash if a temp file went away while its size was
- being checked for status.
- * Deal with git check-attr -z output format change in git 1.8.5.
- * Work around sed output difference that led to version containing a newline
- on OSX.
- * sync: Fix automatic resolution of merge conflicts where one side is an
- annexed file, and the other side is a non-annexed file, or a directory.
- * S3: Try to ensure bucket name is valid for archive.org.
- * assistant: Bug fix: When run in a subdirectory, files from incoming merges
- were wrongly added to that subdirectory, and removed from their original
- locations.
- * Windows: Deal with strange msysgit 1.8.4 behavior of not understanding
- DOS formatted paths for --git-dir and --work-tree.
- * Removed workaround for bug in git 1.8.4r0.
- * Added git-recover-repository command to git-annex source
- (not built by default; this needs to move to someplace else).
- * webapp: Move sidebar to the right hand side of the screen."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 5.20131127 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * webapp: Detect when upgrades are available, and upgrade if the user
+ desires.
+ (Only when git-annex is installed using the prebuilt binaries
+ from git-annex upstream, not from eg Debian.)
+ * assistant: Detect when the git-annex binary is modified or replaced,
+ and either prompt the user to restart the program, or automatically
+ restart it.
+ * annex.autoupgrade configures both the above upgrade behaviors.
+ * Added support for quvi 0.9. Slightly suboptimal due to limitations in its
+ interface compared with the old version.
+ * Bug fix: annex.version did not get set on automatic upgrade to v5 direct
+ mode repo, so the upgrade was performed repeatedly, slowing commands down.
+ * webapp: Fix bug that broke switching between local repositories
+ that use the new guarded direct mode.
+ * Android: Fix stripping of the git-annex binary.
+ * Android: Make terminal app show git-annex version number.
+ * Android: Re-enable XMPP support.
+ * reinject: Allow to be used in direct mode.
+ * Futher improvements to git repo repair. Has now been tested in tens
+ of thousands of intentionally damaged repos, and successfully
+ repaired them all.
+ * Allow use of --unused in bare repository."""]] \ No newline at end of file
