-This version reorganises the layout of git-annex's files in your repository.
-There is an upgrade process to convert a repository from the old git-annex
-to this version. While git-annex will attempt to transparently handle
-upgrades, you may want to drive the upgrade process by hand.
-See [[upgrades]] for details.

-git-annex 0.20110316 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * New repository format, annex.version=2.
- * The first time git-annex is run in an old format repository, it
- will automatically upgrade it to the new format, staging all
- necessary changes to git. Also added a "git annex upgrade" command.
- * Colons are now avoided in filenames, so bare clones of git repos
- can be put on USB thumb drives formatted with vFAT or similar
- filesystems.
- * Added two levels of hashing to object directory and .git-annex logs,
- to improve scalability with enormous numbers of annexed
- objects. (With one hundred million annexed objects, each
- directory would contain fewer than 1024 files.)
- * The setkey, fromkey, and dropkey subcommands have changed how
- the key is specified. --backend is no longer used with these."""]]

+ * bup is now supported as a special type of remote.
+ * The data sent to special remotes (Amazon S3, bup, etc) can be encrypted
+ using GPG for privacy.
+ * Use lowercase hash directories for locationlog files, to avoid
+ some issues with git on OSX with the mixed-case directories.
+ No migration is needed; the old mixed case hash directories are still
+ read; new information is written to the new directories.
+ * Unused files on remotes, particulary special remotes, can now be
+ identified and dropped, by using "--from remote" with git annex unused
+ and git annex dropunused.
+ * Clear up short option confusion between --from and --force (-f is now
+ --from, and there is no short option for --force).
+ * Add build depend on perlmagick so docs are consistently built.
+ Closes: #[621410](http://bugs.debian.org/621410)
+ * Add doc-base file. Closes: #[621408](http://bugs.debian.org/621408)
+ * Periodically flush git command queue, to avoid boating memory usage
+ too much.
+ * Support "sha1" and "sha512" commands on FreeBSD, and allow building
+ if any/all SHA commands are not available. Thanks, Fraser Tweedale"""]] \ No newline at end of file
