- * webapp: Repository list is now included in the dashboard, and other
- UI tweaks.
- * webapp: Improved UI for pairing your own devices together using XMPP.
- * webapp: Display an alert when there are XMPP remotes, and a cloud
- transfer repository needs to be configured.
- * Add incrementalbackup repository group.
- * webapp: Encourage user to install git-annex on a server when adding
- a ssh server, rather than just funneling them through to rsync.
- * xmpp: --debug now enables a sanitized dump of the XMPP protocol
- * xmpp: Try harder to detect presence of clients when there's a git push
- to send.
- * xmpp: Re-enable XA flag, since disabling it did not turn out to help
- with the problems Google Talk has with not always sending presence
- messages to clients.
- * map: Combine duplicate repositories, for a nicer looking map.
- * Fix several bugs caused by a bad Ord instance for Remote.
- * webapp: Switch all forms to POST.
- * assistant: Avoid syncing with annex-ignored remotes when reconnecting
- to the network, or connecting a drive.
- * assistant: Fix OSX bug that prevented committing changed files to a
- repository when in indirect mode.
- * webapp: Improved alerts displayed when syncing with remotes, and
- when syncing with a remote fails.
- * webapp: Force wrap long filenames in transfer display.
- * assistant: The ConfigMonitor left one zombie behind each time
- it checked for changes, now fixed.
- * get, copy, move: Display an error message when an identical transfer
- is already in progress, rather than failing with no indication why.
- * assistant: Several optimisations to file transfers.
- * OSX app and standalone Linux tarball now both support being added to
- PATH; no need to use runshell to start git-annex.
- * webapp: When adding a removable drive, you can now specify the
- directory inside it to use.
- * webapp: Confirm whether user wants to combine repositories when
- adding a removable drive that already has a repository on it."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+ * Sanitize debian changelog version before putting it into cabal file.
+ Closes: #[708619](http://bugs.debian.org/708619)
+ * Switch to MonadCatchIO-transformers for better handling of state while
+ catching exceptions.
+ * Fix a zombie that could result when running a process like gpg to
+ read and write to it.
+ * Allow building with gpg2.
+ * Disable building with the haskell threaded runtime when the webapp
+ is not built. This may fix builds on mips, s390x and sparc, which are
+ failing to link -lHSrts\_thr
+ * Temporarily build without webapp on kfreebsd-i386, until yesod is

+ * Direct mode bug fix: After a conflicted merge was automatically resolved,
+ the content of a file that was already present could incorrectly
+ be replaced with a symlink.
+ * Fix a bug in the git-annex branch handling code that could
+ cause info from a remote to not be merged and take effect immediately.
+ * Direct mode is now fully tested by the test suite.
+ * Detect bad content in ~/.config/git-annex/program and look in PATH instead.
+ * OSX: Fixed gpg included in dmg.
+ * Linux standalone: Back to being built with glibc 2.13 for maximum
+ portability."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+is a hook program for git-annex to use mega.co.nz as backend
+
+# Requirements:
+
+ requests>=0.10
+ pycrypto
+
+Credit for the mega api interface goes to:
+<https://github.com/richardasaurus/mega.py>
+
+## Install
+
+Clone the git repository in your home folder.
+
+ git clone git://github.com/TobiasTheViking/megaannex.git
+
+This should make a ~/megannex folder
+
+## Setup
+
+Run the program once to make an empty config file.
+
+ cd ~/megaannex; python2 megaannex.py
+
+Edit the megaannex.conf file. Add your mega.co.nz username and password
+
+Note: The folder option in the megaannex.conf file isn't yet used.
+
+## Configuring git-annex
+
+ git config annex.mega-store-hook 'python2 ~/megaannex/megaannex.py store --subject $ANNEX_KEY --file $ANNEX_FILE'
+ git config annex.mega-retrieve-hook 'python2 ~/megaannex/megaannex.py getfile --subject $ANNEX_KEY --file $ANNEX_FILE'
+ git config annex.mega-checkpresent-hook 'python2 ~/megaannex/megaannex.py fileexists --subject $ANNEX_KEY'
+ git config annex.mega-remove-hook 'python2 ~/megaannex/megaannex.py delete --subject $ANNEX_KEY'
+
+ git annex initremote mega type=hook hooktype=mega encryption=shared
+ git annex describe mega "the mega.co.nz library"
+
+## Notes

+on your python installation.

mega.co.nz has 50gb for free accounts. They also have an API, so I guess it wouldn't be too hard to use it as a special remote.
