-News for git-annex 3.20120123:
-
- There was a bug in the handling of directory special remotes that
- could cause partial file contents to be stored in them. If you use
- a directory special remote, you should fsck it, to avoid potential
- data loss.
- Example: git annex fsck --from mydirectory
-
-git-annex 3.20120123 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * fsck --from: Fscking a remote is now supported. It's done by retrieving
- the contents of the specified files from the remote, and checking them,
- so can be an expensive operation. Still, if the remote is a special
- remote, or a git repository that you cannot run fsck in locally, it's
- nice to have the ability to fsck it.
- * If you have any directory special remotes, now would be a good time to
- fsck them, in case you were hit by the data loss bug fixed in the
- previous release!
- * fsck --from remote --fast: Avoids expensive file transfers, at the
- expense of not checking file size and/or contents.
- * Ssh connection caching is now enabled automatically by git-annex.
- Only one ssh connection is made to each host per git-annex run, which
- can speed some things up a lot, as well as avoiding repeated password
- prompts. Concurrent git-annex processes also share ssh connections.
- Cached ssh connections are shut down when git-annex exits.
- * To disable the ssh caching (if for example you have your own broader
- ssh caching configuration), set annex.sshcaching=false."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+ * "here" can be used to refer to the current repository,
+ which can read better than the old "." (which still works too).
+ * Directory special remotes now support chunking files written to them,
+ avoiding writing files larger than a specified size.
+ * Add progress bar display to the directory special remote.
+ * Add configurable hooks that are run when git-annex starts and stops
+ using a remote: remote.name.annex-start-command and
+ remote.name.annex-stop-command
+ * Fix a bug in symlink calculation code, that triggered in rare
+ cases where an annexed file is in a subdirectory that nearly
+ matched to the .git/annex/object/xx/yy subdirectories."""]] \ No newline at end of file
