-   * watch: New subcommand, a daemon which notices changes to
-     files and automatically annexes new files, etc, so you don't
-     need to manually run git commands when manipulating files.
-     Available on Linux, BSDs, and OSX!
-   * Enable diskfree on kfreebsd, using kqueue.
-   * unused: Fix crash when key names contain invalid utf8.
-   * sync: Avoid recent git's interactive merge."""]]

+git-annex 3.20120924 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+   * assistant: New command, a daemon which does everything watch does,
+     as well as automatically syncing file contents between repositories.
+   * webapp: An interface for managing and configuring the assistant.
+   * The default backend used when adding files to the annex is changed
+     from SHA256 to SHA256E, to simplify interoperability with OSX, media
+     players, and various programs that needlessly look at symlink targets.
+     To get old behavior, add a .gitattributes containing: * annex.backend=SHA256
+   * init: If no description is provided for a new repository, one will
+     automatically be generated, like "joey@gnu:~/foo"
+   * test: Set a lot of git environment variables so testing works in strange
+     environments that normally need git config to set names, etc.
+     Closes: #[682351](http://bugs.debian.org/682351) Thanks, gregor herrmann
+   * Disable ssh connection caching if the path to the control socket would be
+     too long (and use relative path to minimise path to the control socket).
+   * migrate: Check content before generating the new key, to avoid generating
+     a key for corrupt data.
+   * Support repositories created with --separate-git-dir. Closes: #[684405](http://bugs.debian.org/684405)
+   * reinject: When the provided file doesn't match, leave it where it is,
+     rather than moving to .git/annex/bad/
+   * Avoid crashing on encoding errors in filenames when writing transfer info
+     files and reading from checksum commands.
+   * sync: Pushes the git-annex branch to remote/synced/git-annex, rather
+     than directly to remote/git-annex.
+   * Now supports matchig files that are present on a number of remotes
+     with a specified trust level. Example: --copies=trusted:2
+     Thanks, Nicolas Pouillard"""]]
