-[[!toggleable text="""
-   * adjust --unlock: Enters an adjusted branch in which all annexed files
-     are unlocked. The v6 equivilant of direct mode, but much cleaner!
-   * Upgrading a direct mode repository to v6 has changed to enter
-     an adjusted unlocked branch. This makes the direct mode to v6 upgrade
-     able to be performed in one clone of a repository without affecting
-     other clones, which can continue using v5 and direct mode.
-   * init --version=6: Automatically enter the adjusted unlocked branch
-     when filesystem doesn't support symlinks.
-   * ddar remote: fix ssh calls
-     Thanks, Robie Basak
-   * log: Display time with time zone.
-   * log --raw-date: Use to display seconds from unix epoch.
-   * v6: Close pointer file handles more quickly, to avoid problems on Windows.
-   * sync: Show output of git commit.
-   * annex.thin and annex.hardlink are now supported on Windows.
-   * unannex --fast now makes hard links on Windows.
-   * Fix bug in annex.largefiles mimetype= matching when git-annex
-     is run in a subdirectory of the repository.
-   * Fix build with ghc v7.11. Thanks, Gabor Greif."""]]

-   * smudge: Print a warning when annex.thin is set, as git's smudge
-     interface does not allow honoring that configuration.
-   * webapp: When $HOME is a git repository, and has been initialized for
-     use by git-annex, opening the webapp went ahead and ran the assistant
-     there, annexing all files. Since this is almost certianly not
-     desirable, especially when the user is just opening the webapp from
-     a dekstop menu which happens to run it in $HOME, the webapp will now not
-     treat such a $HOME git repository as a git-annex repository.
-   * webapp: Update url to add gitlab.com ssh key.
-   * Fix bug in v6 mode that prevented treating unlocked executable files
-     as annexed. If you have such files, run git annex init --version=6
-     to update the cache after upgrading to this version of git-annex.
-   * Preserve execute bits of unlocked files in v6 mode.
-   * fsck: Warn when core.sharedRepository is set and an annex object file's
-     write bit is not set and cannot be set due to the file being owned
-     by a different user.
-   * Fix hang when dropping content needs to lock the content on a
-     ssh remote, which occurred when the remote has git-annex version
-     5.20151019 or newer. (The bug was in the client side; the remote
-     git-annex-shell does not need to be upgraded.)"""]]

+git-annex 6.20160527 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+   * Split lines in the git-annex branch on \r as well as \n, to deal
+     with \r\n terminated lines written by some versions of git-annex on
+     Windows. This fixes strange displays in some cases.
+   * assistant: Fix bug that caused v6 pointer files to be annexed by the
+     assistant.
+   * assistant: Fix race in v6 mode that caused downloaded file content to
+     sometimes not replace pointer files.
+   * add: Adding a v6 pointer file used to annex it; now the pointer file is
+     added to git as-is. (git add of a pointer file already did the right
+     thing)
+   * enableremote: Can now be used to explicitly enable git-annex to use
+     git remotes. Using the command this way prevents other git-annex
+     commands from probing new git remotes to auto-enable them.
+   * enableremote: Remove annex-ignore configuration from a remote.
+   * Change git annex info remote encryption description to use wording
+     closer to what's used in initremote.
+   * Pass the various gnupg-options configs to gpg in several cases where
+     they were not before. Most notably, gnupg-decrypt-options is now
+     passed when decrypting an encrypted cipher.
+   * adjust: Add --fix adjustment, which is useful when the git directory
+     is in a nonstandard place.
+   * adjust: If the adjusted branch already exists, avoid overwriting it,
+     since it might contain changes that have not yet been propigated to the
+     original branch.
+   * Work around git weirdness in handling of relative path to GIT\_INDEX\_FILE
+     when in a subdirectory of the repository. This affected git annex view.
+   * Fix crash when entering/changing view in a subdirectory of a repo that
+     has a dotfile in its root.
+   * webapp: Avoid confusing display of dead remotes.
+   * Support building with ghc 8.0.1.
+   * Updated cabal file explicitly lists source files. The tarball
+     on hackage will include only the files needed for cabal install;
+     it is NOT the full git-annex source tree.
+   * debian/changelog, debian/NEWS, debian/copyright: Converted to symlinks
+     to CHANGELOG, NEWS, and COPYRIGHT, which used to symlink to these instead."""]]
