-[[!toggleable text="""
- * Now handles the case where a file that's being transferred to a remote
- is modified in place, which direct mode allows. When this
- happens, the transfer now fails, rather than allow possibly corrupt
- data into the remote.
- * fsck: Better checking of file content in direct mode.
- * drop: Suggest using git annex move when numcopies prevents dropping a file.
- * webapp: Repo switcher filters out repos that do not exist any more
- (or are on a drive that's not mounted).
- * webapp: Use IP address, rather than localhost, since some systems may
- have configuration problems or other issues that prevent web browsers
- from connecting to the right localhost IP for the webapp.
- * webapp: Adjust longpoll code to work with recent versions of
- shakespeare-js.
- * assistant: Support new gvfs dbus names used in Gnome 3.6.
- * In direct mode, files with the same key are no longer hardlinked, as
- that would cause a surprising behavior if modifying one, where the other
- would also change.
- * webapp: Avoid illegal characters in hostname when creating S3 or
- Glacier remote.
- * assistant: Avoid committer crashing if a file is deleted at the wrong
- instant."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 4.20130314 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Bugfix: git annex add, when ran without any file or directory specified,
+ should add files in the current directory, but not act on unlocked files
+ elsewhere in the tree.
+ * Bugfix: drop --from an unavailable remote no longer updates the location
+ log, incorrectly, to say the remote does not have the key.
+ * Bugfix: If the UUID of a remote is not known, prevent --from, --to,
+ and other ways of specifying remotes by name from selecting it,
+ since it is not possible to sanely use it.
+ * Bugfix: Fix bug in inode cache sentinal check, which broke
+ copying to local repos if the repo being copied from had moved
+ to a different filesystem or otherwise changed all its inodes
+ * Switch from using regex-compat to regex-tdfa, as the C regex library
+ is rather buggy.
+ * status: Can now be run with a directory path to show only the
+ status of that directory, rather than the whole annex.
+ * Added remote.&lt;name&gt;.annex-gnupg-options setting.
+ Thanks, guilhem for the patch.
+ * addurl: Add --relaxed option.
+ * addurl: Escape invalid characters in urls, rather than failing to
+ use an invalid url.
+ * addurl: Properly handle url-escaped characters in file:// urls.
+ * assistant: Fix dropping content when a file is moved to an archive
+ directory, and getting contennt when a file is moved back out.
+ * assistant: Fix bug in direct mode that could occur when a symlink is
+ moved out of an archive directory, and resulted in the file not being
+ set to direct mode when it was transferred.
+ * assistant: Generate better commits for renames.
+ * assistant: Logs are rotated to avoid them using too much disk space.
+ * assistant: Avoid noise in logs from git commit about typechanged
+ files in direct mode repositories.
+ * assistant: Set gc.auto=0 when creating repositories to prevent
+ automatic commits from causing git-gc runs.
+ * assistant: If gc.auto=0, run git-gc once a day, packing loose objects
+ very non-aggressively.
+ * assistant: XMPP git pull and push requests are cached and sent when
+ presence of a new client is detected.
+ * assistant: Sync with all git remotes on startup.
+ * assistant: Get back in sync with XMPP remotes after network reconnection,
+ and on startup.
+ * assistant: Fix syncing after XMPP pairing.
+ * assistant: Optimised handling of renamed files in direct mode,
+ avoiding re-checksumming.
+ * assistant: Detects most renames, including directory renames, and
+ combines all their changes into a single commit.
+ * assistant: Fix ~/.ssh/git-annex-shell wrapper to work when the
+ ssh key does not force a command.
+ * assistant: Be smarter about avoiding unncessary transfers.
+ * webapp: Work around bug in Warp's slowloris attack prevention code,
+ that caused regular browsers to stall when they reuse a connection
+ after leaving it idle for 30 seconds.
+ (See https://github.com/yesodweb/wai/issues/146)
+ * webapp: New preferences page allows enabling/disabling debug logging
+ at runtime, as well as configuring numcopies and diskreserve.
+ * webapp: Repository costs can be configured by dragging repositories around
+ in the repository list.
+ * webapp: Proceed automatically on from "Configure jabber account"
+ to pairing.
+ * webapp: Only show up to 10 queued transfers.
+ * webapp: DTRT when told to create a git repo that already exists.
+ * webapp: Set locally paired repositories to a lower cost than other
+ network remotes.
+ * Run ssh with -T to avoid tty allocation and any login scripts that
+ may do undesired things with it.
+ * Several improvements to Makefile and cabal file. Thanks, Peter Simmons
+ * Stop depending on testpack.
+ * Android: Enable test suite."""]] \ No newline at end of file
