-git-annex 6.20160211 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
-   * annex.addsmallfiles: New option controlling what is done when
-     adding files not matching annex.largefiles.
-   * Fix reversion in lookupkey, contentlocation, and examinekey which
-     caused them to sometimes output side messages.
-   * webapp: Fix deletion of current repository directory.
-   * Added "nothing" to preferred content expression syntax.
-   * annex.largefiles can be configured in .gitattributes too;
-     this is particulary useful for v6 repositories, since the
-     .gitattributes configuration will apply in all clones of the
-     repository.
-   * Limit annex.largefiles parsing to the subset of preferred content
-     expressions that make sense in its context. So, not "standard"
-     or "lackingcopies", etc.
-   * annex.largefiles: Add support for mimetype=text/* etc, when git-annex
-     is linked with libmagic.
-   * matchexpression: Added --largefiles option to parse an annex.largefiles
-     expression.
-   * Brought back the dbus and xmpp build flags, so build from source can be
-     done without C libraries that may be hard to install.
-   * init: Fix bugs in submodule .git symlink fixup, that occurred when
-     initializing in a subdirectory of a submodule and a submodule of a
-     submodule.
-   * WebDAV: Set depth 1 in PROPFIND request, for better compatibility with
-     some servers. Thanks, wzhd.
-   * WebDAV: Remove a bogus trailing slash from the end of the url to the
-     temporary store location for a key. Thanks, wzhd.
-   * S3: Allow configuring with requeststyle=path to use path-style bucket
-     access instead of the default DNS-style access."""]]

+git-annex 6.20160418 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+   * smudge: Print a warning when annex.thin is set, as git's smudge
+     interface does not allow honoring that configuration.
+   * webapp: When $HOME is a git repository, and has been initialized for
+     use by git-annex, opening the webapp went ahead and ran the assistant
+     there, annexing all files. Since this is almost certianly not
+     desirable, especially when the user is just opening the webapp from
+     a dekstop menu which happens to run it in $HOME, the webapp will now not
+     treat such a $HOME git repository as a git-annex repository.
+   * webapp: Update url to add gitlab.com ssh key.
+   * Fix bug in v6 mode that prevented treating unlocked executable files
+     as annexed. If you have such files, run git annex init --version=6
+     to update the cache after upgrading to this version of git-annex.
+   * Preserve execute bits of unlocked files in v6 mode.
+   * fsck: Warn when core.sharedRepository is set and an annex object file's
+     write bit is not set and cannot be set due to the file being owned
+     by a different user.
+   * Fix hang when dropping content needs to lock the content on a
+     ssh remote, which occurred when the remote has git-annex version
+     5.20151019 or newer. (The bug was in the client side; the remote
+     git-annex-shell does not need to be upgraded.)"""]]
