-git-annex 5.20131118 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * Direct mode repositories now have core.bare=true set, to prevent
- accidentally running git commands that try to operate on the work tree,
- and so do the wrong thing in direct mode.
- * annex.version is now set to 5 for direct mode repositories.
- This upgrade is handled fully automatically, no need to run
- git annex upgrade
- * The "status" command has been renamed to "info", to allow
- "git annex status" to be used in direct mode repositories, now that
- "git status" won't work in them.
- * The -c option now not only modifies the git configuration seen by
- git-annex, but it is passed along to every git command git-annex runs.
- * watcher: Avoid loop when adding a file owned by someone else fails
- in indirect mode because its permissions cannot be modified.
- * webapp: Avoid encoding problems when displaying the daemon log file.
- * webapp: Improve UI around remote that have no annex.uuid set,
- either because setup of them is incomplete, or because the remote
- git repository is not a git-annex repository.
- * Include ssh-keygen in standalone bundle.
- * Allow optionally configuring git-annex with -fEKG to enable awesome
- remote monitoring interfaceat http://localhost:4242/
- * Fix bug that caused bad information to be written to the git-annex branch
- when running describe or other commands with a remote that has no uuid.
- * Work around Android linker problem that had prevented git-annex from
- running on Android 4.3 and 4.4.
- * repair: Handle case where index file is corrupt, but all objects are ok.
- * assistant: Notice on startup when the index file is corrupt, and
- auto-repair.
- * Fix direct mode merge bug when a direct mode file was deleted and replaced
- with a directory. An ordering problem caused the directory to not get
- created in this case.
- Thanks to Tim for the test case.
- * Direct mode .git/annex/objects directories are no longer left writable,
- because that allowed writing to symlinks of files that are not present,
- which followed the link and put bad content in an object location.
- Thanks to Tim for the test case.
- * fsck: Fix up .git/annex/object directory permissions.
- * Switched to the tasty test framework.
- * Android: Adjust default .gitignore to ignore .thumbnails at any location
- in the tree, not just at its top.
- * webapp: Check annex.version."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 5.20131221 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * assistant: Fix OSX-specific bug that caused the startup scan to try to
+ follow symlinks to other directories, and add their contents to the annex.
+ * assistant: Set StrictHostKeyChecking yes when creating ssh remotes,
+ and add it to the configuration for any ssh remotes previously created
+ by the assistant. This avoids repeated prompts by ssh if the host key
+ changes, instead syncing with such a remote will fail. Closes: #[732602](http://bugs.debian.org/732602)
+ * Fix test suite to cover lock --force change.
+ * Add plumbing-level lookupkey and examinekey commands.
+ * find --format: Added hashdirlower, hashdirmixed, keyname, and mtime
+ format variables.
+ * assistant: Always batch changes found in startup scan.
+ * An armel Linux standalone build is now available, which includes the
+ webapp.
+ * Programs from Linux and OSX standalone builds can now be symlinked
+ into a directory in PATH as an alternative installation method, and will
+ use readlink to find where the build was unpacked.
+ * Include man pages in Linux and OSX standalone builds.
+ * Linux standalone build now includes its own glibc and forces the linker to
+ use it, to remove dependence on the host glibc."""]] \ No newline at end of file
