-git-annex 6.20160419 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * Fix bug that prevented resuming of uploads to encrypted special remotes
- that used chunking.
- * That bug could also expose the names of keys to such remotes when
- attempting to resume an upload, so it is a minor security issue.
- * Fix duplicate progress meter display when downloading from a git remote
- over http with -J.
- * reinject: When src file's content cannot be verified, leave it alone,
- instead of deleting it.
- * reinject: Added new mode which can reinject known files into the annex.
- For example: git-annex reinject --known /mnt/backup/*
- * calckey: New plumbing command, calculates the key that would be used
- to refer to a file.
- * Fix bug that prevented annex.sshcaching=false configuration from taking
- effect when on a crippled filesystem. Thanks, divergentdave.
- * git 2.9.0 is going to prevent git merge from merging in unrelated
- branches. Since the webapp's pairing etc features often combine
- together repositories with unrelated histories, work around
- this behavior change when the assistant merges, by passing
- --allow-unrelated-histories. Note though that this is not done
- for git annex sync's merges, so it will follow git's default or
- configured behavior.
- * When git-annex is used with a git version older than 2.2.0, disable
- support for adjusted branches, since GIT\_COMMON\_DIR is needed to update
- them and was first added in that version of git.
- * Avoid setting LOCPATH in linux standalone builds that are built with
- a ghc that has been fixed to not hang when it cannot find locale files.
- * Isolate test suite from global git config settings."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 6.20160619 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * get, drop: Add --batch and --json options.
+ * testremote: Fix crash when testing a freshly made external special remote.
+ * Remove unnecessary rpaths in the git-annex binary, but only when
+ it's built using make, not cabal.
+ This speeds up git-annex startup time by around 50%.
+ * Speed up startup time by caching the refs that have been merged into
+ the git-annex branch.
+ This can speed up git-annex commands by as much as a second,
+ depending on the number of remotes.
+ * fsck: Fix a reversion in direct mode fsck of a file that is
+ present when the location log thinks it is not. Reversion introduced
+ in version 5.20151208.
+ * uninit: Fix crash due to trying to write to deleted keys db.
+ Reversion introduced by v6 mode support, affects v5 too.
+ * Fix a similar crash when the webapp is used to delete a repository.
+ * Support checking presence of content at a http url that redirects to
+ a ftp url.
+ * log: Added --all option.
+ * New url for git-remote-gcrypt, now maintained by spwhitton.
+ * webapp: Don't allow deleting a remote that has syncing disabled,
+ as such a deletion will never finish.
+ Thanks, Farhan Kathawala.
+ * webapp: Escape unusual characters in ssh hostnames when generating
+ mangled hostnames. This allows IPv6 addresses to be used on filesystems
+ not supporting : in filenames.
+ * Avoid any access to keys database in v5 mode repositories, which
+ are not supposed to use that database.
+ * Remove the EKG build flag, since Gentoo for some reason decided to
+ enable this flag, depsite it not being intended for production use and
+ so disabled by default."""]] \ No newline at end of file
