+git-annex 5.20151116 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Use concurrent-output library when configured with -fConcurrentOutput.
+ This allows nicely displayed messages when using the -J flag.
+ * Additional commands now support the -J flag:
+ fsck, drop, add, addurl, import
+ * import: Avoid very ugly error messages when the directory files
+ are imported to is not a directort, but perhaps an annexed file.
+ * Concurrent progress bars are now displayed when using -J with a command
+ that moves file contents around.
+ * Fix race that could result in an annexed file's symlink not being
+ created, when eg, running concurrent git-annex adds.
+ * add: Fix error recovery rollback to not move the injested file content
+ out of the annex back to the file, because other files may point to
+ that same content. Instead, copy the injected file content out to
+ recover.
+ * quvi may output utf-8 encoded data when the conifigured locale doesn't
+ support that; avoid crashing on such invalid encoding.
+ * runshell: Avoid failing when $HOME/.ssh does not exist and cannot be
+ created.
+ * Make the git-annex-standalone.deb prevent runshell from installing
+ wrappers into $HOME/.ssh
+ * Make git-annex-standalone.deb include the git-annex html documentation,
+ desktop file, and base completion file, same as the regular git-annex.deb.
+ * fsck: When fscking a dead repo, avoid incorrect "fixing location log"
+ message, and display a warning about it being dead, since it's unusual
+ to have access to a dead repo.
+ * assistant: Pass ssh-options through 3 more git pull/push calls
+ that were missed before.
+ * Added annex.pidlock and annex.pidlocktimeout configuration to support
+ filesystems where POSIX fcntl locks cannot be used.
+ * init: Automatically enable annex.pidlock when necessary."""]] \ No newline at end of file
