-git-annex 5.20131213 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
-   * Avoid using git commit in direct mode, since in some situations
-     it will read the full contents of files in the tree.
-   * assistant: Batch jobs are now run with ionice and nocache, when
-     those commands are available.
-   * assistant: Run transferkeys as batch jobs.
-   * Automatically fix up bad bare repositories created by
-     versions 5.20131118 through 5.20131127.
-   * rsync special remote: Fix fallback mode for rsync remotes that
-     use hashDirMixed. Closes: #[731142](http://bugs.debian.org/731142)
-   * copy --from, get --from: When --force is used, ignore the
-     location log and always try to get the file from the remote.
-   * Deal with box.com changing the url of their webdav endpoint.
-   * Android: Fix SRV record lookups for XMPP to use android getprop
-     command to find DNS server, since there is no resolv.conf.
-   * import: Add --skip-duplicates option.
-   * lock: Require --force. Closes: #[731606](http://bugs.debian.org/731606)
-   * import: better handling of overwriting an existing file/directory/broken
-     link when importing
-   * Windows: assistant and webapp work! (very experimental)
-   * Windows: Support annex.diskreserve.
-   * Fix bad behavior in Firefox, which was caused by an earlier fix to
-     bad behavior in Chromium.
-   * repair: Improve repair of git-annex index file.
-   * repair: Remove damaged git-annex sync branches.
-   * status: Ignore new files that are gitignored.
-   * Fix direct mode's handling when modifications to non-annexed files
-     are pulled from a remote. A bug prevented the files from being updated
-     in the work tree, and this caused the modification to be reverted.
-   * OSX: Remove ssh and ssh-keygen from dmg as they're included in OSX by
-     default."""]]

-   * 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."""]]

+   * sync --content: New option that makes the content of annexed files be
+     transferred. Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured
+     preferred content expressions.
+   * Remove --json option from commands not supporting it.
+   * status: Support --json.
+   * list: Fix specifying of files to list.
+   * Allow --all to be mixed with matching options like --copies and --in
+     (but not --include and --exclude).
+   * numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all
+     clones of a repository.
+   * The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies
+     command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies
+     git configs will be ignored.
+   * assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies.
+   * Add lackingcopies, approxlackingcopies, and unused to
+     preferred content expressions.
+   * Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories
+     now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies.
+   * Client, transfer, and source repositories now do not want to retain
+     unused file contents.
+   * assistant: Checks daily for unused file contents, and when possible
+     moves them to a repository (such as a backup repository) that
+     wants to retain them.
+   * assistant: annex.expireunused can be configured to cause unused
+     file contents to be deleted after some period of time.
+   * webapp: Nudge user to see if they want to expire old unused file
+     contents when a lot of them seem to be piling up in the repository.
+   * repair: Check git version at run time.
+   * assistant: Run the periodic git gc in batch mode.
+   * added annex.secure-erase-command config option.
+   * Optimise non-bare http remotes; no longer does a 404 to the wrong
+     url every time before trying the right url. Needs annex-bare to be
+     set to false, which is done when initially probing the uuid of a
+     http remote.
+   * webapp: After upgrading a git repository to git-annex, fix
+     bug that made it temporarily not be synced with.
+   * whereis: Support --all.
+   * All commands that support --all also support a --key option,
+     which limits them to acting on a single key."""]]
