-News for git-annex 6.20170101:
-
-   XMPP support has been removed from the assistant in this release.
-   If your repositories used XMPP to keep in sync, that will no longer
-   work, and you should enable some other remote to keep them in sync.
-   A ssh server is one way, or use the new Tor pairing feature.

-   * XMPP support has been removed from the assistant in this release.
-     If your repositories used XMPP to keep in sync, that will no longer
-     work, and you should enable some other remote to keep them in sync.
-     A ssh server is one way, or use the new Tor pairing feature.
-   * p2p --pair makes it easy to pair repositories, over Tor, using
-     Magic Wormhole codes to find the other repository.
-     See http://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/peer\_to\_peer\_network\_with\_tor/
-   * webapp: The "Share with a friend" and "Share with your other devices"
-     pages have been changed to pair repositories using Tor and Magic Wormhole.
-   * metadata --batch: Fix bug when conflicting metadata changes were
-     made in the same batch run.
-   * Pass annex.web-options to wget and curl after other options, so that
-     eg --no-show-progress can be set by the user to disable the default
-     --show-progress.
-   * Revert ServerAliveInterval change in 6.20161111, which caused problems
-     with too many old versions of ssh and unusual ssh configurations.
-     It should have not been needed anyway since ssh is supposted to
-     have TCPKeepAlive enabled by default.
-   * Make all --batch input, as well as fromkey and registerurl stdin
-     be processed without requiring it to be in the current encoding.
-   * p2p: --link no longer takes a remote name, instead the --name
-     option can be used.
-   * Linux standalone: Improve generation of locale definition files,
-     supporting locales such as en\_GB.UTF-8.
-   * rekey --force: Incorrectly marked the new key's content as being
-     present in the local repo even when it was not.
-   * enable-tor: Put tor sockets in /var/lib/tor-annex/, rather
-     than in /etc/tor/hidden\_service/.
-   * enable-tor: No longer needs to be run as root.
-   * enable-tor: When run as a regular user, also tests a connection back to
-     the hidden service over tor.
-   * Support all common locations of the torrc file.
-   * Always use filesystem encoding for all file and handle reads and
-     writes.
-   * Fix build with directory-1.3.
-   * Debian: Suggest tor and magic-wormhole.
-   * Debian: Build webapp on armel."""]]

+git-annex 6.20170321 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+   * Bugfix: Passing a command a filename that does not exist sometimes
+     did not display an error, when a path to a directory was also passed.
+   * status: Propigate nonzero exit code from git status.
+   * Linux standalone builds put the bundled ssh last in PATH,
+     so any system ssh will be preferred over it.
+   * assistant: Add 1/200th second delay between checking each file
+     in the full transfer scan, to avoid using too much CPU.
+   * get -J: Improve distribution of jobs amoung remotes when there are more
+     jobs than remotes.
+   * fsck -q: When a file has bad content, include the name of the file
+     in the warning message.
+   * Windows: Improve handling of shebang in external special remote
+     program, searching for the program in the PATH.
+   * Drop support for building with old versions of dns, http-conduit,
+     directory, feed, and http-types.
+   * Windows: Fix bug in shell script shebang lookup code that
+     caused a "delayed read on closed handle" error.
+   * git-annex-shell: Fix bug when used with a recently cloned repository,
+     where "merging" messages were included in the output of configlist
+     (and perhaps other commands) and caused a "Failed to get annex.uuid
+     configuration" error.
+   * Support GIT\_SSH and GIT\_SSH\_COMMAND, which are handled close the same
+     as they are by git. However, unlike git, git-annex sometimes needs to
+     pass the -n parameter when using these.
+   * sync --content-of=path (-C path) added for when you want to sync
+     only some files' contents, not the whole working tree."""]]
