+News for git-annex 0.20110316:
+
+ 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 &lt;http://git-annex.branchable.com/upgrades/&gt; or
+ /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html
+
+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."""]] \ No newline at end of file
