-git-annex 6.20170519 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
-   * Ssh password prompting improved when using -J for concurrency.
-     When ssh connection caching is enabled (and when GIT\_ANNEX\_USE\_GIT\_SSH
-     is not set), only one ssh password prompt will be made per host, and
-     only one ssh password prompt will be made at a time.
-   * When built with concurrent-output 1.9, ssh password prompts will no
-     longer interfere with the -J display.
-   * Removed dependency on MissingH, instead depending on the split library.
-   * Progress is displayed for transfers of files of unknown size.
-   * Work around bug in git 2.13.0 involving GIT\_COMMON\_DIR that broke
-     merging changes into adjusted branches."""]]

+   * add: Replace work tree file atomically on systems supporting hard
+     links. Avoids a window where interrupting an add could result in
+     the file being moved into the annex, with no symlink yet created.
+   * webdav: Avoid unncessisarily creating the collection at the top
+     of the repository when storing files there, since that collection
+     is created by initremote.
+     (This seems to work around some brokenness of the box.com webdav
+     server, which caused uploads to be very slow or sometimes fail.)
+   * webdav: Make --debug show all webdav operations.
+   * get -J/move -J/copy -J/mirror -J/sync -J: Avoid "transfer already in
+     progress" errors when two files use the same key.
+   * Konqueror desktop file location changed to one used by plasma 5.
+     Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+   * Avoid repeated checking that files passed on the command line exist.
+   * Fix build with aws-0.17.
+   * stack.yaml: Update to lts-9.9."""]]
