-git-annex 4.20130417 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * initremote: Generates encryption keys with high quality entropy.
- This can be disabled using --fast to get the old behavior.
- The assistant still uses low-quality entropy when creating encrypted
- remotes, to avoid delays. (Thanks, guilhem for the patch.)
- * Bugfix: Direct mode no longer repeatedly checksums duplicated files.
- * assistant: Work around horrible, terrible, very bad behavior of
- gnome-keyring, by not storing special-purpose ssh keys in ~/.ssh/*.pub.
- Apparently gnome-keyring apparently will load and indiscriminately use
- such keys in some cases, even if they are not using any of the standard
- ssh key names. Instead store the keys in ~/.ssh/annex/,
- which gnome-keyring will not check.
- * addurl: Bugfix: Did not properly add file in direct mode.
- * assistant: Bug fix to avoid annexing the files that git uses
- to stand in for symlinks on FAT and other filesystem not supporting
- symlinks.
- * Adjust preferred content expressions so that content in archive
- directories is preferred until it has reached an archive or smallarchive
- repository.
- * webapp: New --listen= option allows running the webapp on one computer
- and connecting to it from another. (Note: Does not yet use HTTPS.)
- * Added annex.web-download-command setting.
- * Added per-remote annex-rsync-transport option. (guilhem again)
- * Ssh connection caching is now also used by rsync special remotes.
- (guilhem yet again)
- * The version number is now derived from git, unless built with
- VERSION\_FROM\_CHANGELOG.
- * assistant: Stop any transfers the assistant initiated on shutdown.
- * assistant: Added sequence numbers to XMPP git push packets. (Not yet used.)
- * addurl: Register transfer so the webapp can see it.
- * addurl: Automatically retry downloads that fail, as long as some
- additional content was downloaded.
- * webapp: Much improved progress bar display for downloads from encrypted
- remotes.
- * Avoid using runghc, as that needs ghci.
- * webapp: When a repository's group is changed, rescan for transfers.
- * webapp: Added animations.
- * webapp: Include the repository directory in the mangled hostname and
- ssh key name, so that a locked down ssh key for one repository is not
- re-used when setting up additional repositories on the same server.
- * Fall back to internal url downloader when built without curl.
- * fsck: Check content of direct mode files (only when the inode cache
- thinks they are unmodified)."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 4.20130621 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Supports indirect mode on encfs in paranoia mode, and other
+ filesystems that do not support hard links, but do support
+ symlinks and other POSIX filesystem features.
+ * Android: Add .thumbnails to .gitignore when setting up a camera
+ repository.
+ * Android: Make the "Open webapp" menu item open the just created
+ repository when a new repo is made.
+ * webapp: When the user switches to display a different repository,
+ that repository becomes the default repository to be displayed next time
+ the webapp gets started.
+ * glacier: Better handling of the glacier inventory, which avoids
+ duplicate uploads to the same glacier repository by `git annex copy`.
+ * Direct mode: No longer temporarily remove write permission bit of files
+ when adding them.
+ * sync: Better support for bare git remotes. Now pushes directly to the
+ master branch on such a remote, instead of to synced/master. This
+ makes it easier to clone from a bare git remote that has been populated
+ with git annex sync or by the assistant.
+ * Android: Fix use of cp command to not try to use features present
+ only on build system.
+ * Windows: Fix hang when adding several files at once.
+ * assistant: In direct mode, objects are now only dropped when all
+ associated files are unwanted. This avoids a repreated drop/get loop
+ of a file that has a copy in an archive directory, and a copy not in an
+ archive directory. (Indirect mode still has some buggy behavior in this
+ area, since it does not keep track of associated files.)
+ Closes: #[712060](http://bugs.debian.org/712060)
+ * status: No longer shows dead repositories.
+ * annex.debug can now be set to enable debug logging by default.
+ The webapp's debugging check box does this.
+ * fsck: Avoid getting confused by Windows path separators
+ * Windows: Multiple bug fixes, including fixing the data written to the
+ git-annex branch.
+ * Windows: The test suite now passes on Windows (a few broken parts are
+ disabled).
+ * assistant: On Linux, the expensive transfer scan is run niced.
+ * Enable assistant and WebDAV support on powerpc and sparc architectures,
+ which now have the necessary dependencies built."""]] \ No newline at end of file
