-News for git-annex 3.20120123:
-
-   There was a bug in the handling of directory special remotes that
-   could cause partial file contents to be stored in them. If you use
-   a directory special remote, you should fsck it, to avoid potential
-   data loss.
-   Example: git annex fsck --from mydirectory

-   * fsck --from: Fscking a remote is now supported. It's done by retrieving
-     the contents of the specified files from the remote, and checking them,
-     so can be an expensive operation. Still, if the remote is a special
-     remote, or a git repository that you cannot run fsck in locally, it's
-     nice to have the ability to fsck it.
-   * If you have any directory special remotes, now would be a good time to
-     fsck them, in case you were hit by the data loss bug fixed in the
-     previous release!
-   * fsck --from remote --fast: Avoids expensive file transfers, at the
-     expense of not checking file size and/or contents.
-   * Ssh connection caching is now enabled automatically by git-annex.
-     Only one ssh connection is made to each host per git-annex run, which
-     can speed some things up a lot, as well as avoiding repeated password
-     prompts. Concurrent git-annex processes also share ssh connections.
-     Cached ssh connections are shut down when git-annex exits.
-   * To disable the ssh caching (if for example you have your own broader
-     ssh caching configuration), set annex.sshcaching=false."""]]

+   * "here" can be used to refer to the current repository,
+     which can read better than the old "." (which still works too).
+   * Directory special remotes now support chunking files written to them,
+     avoiding writing files larger than a specified size.
+   * Add progress bar display to the directory special remote.
+   * Add configurable hooks that are run when git-annex starts and stops
+     using a remote: remote.name.annex-start-command and
+     remote.name.annex-stop-command
+   * Fix a bug in symlink calculation code, that triggered in rare
+     cases where an annexed file is in a subdirectory that nearly
+     matched to the .git/annex/object/xx/yy subdirectories."""]]
