-git-annex 5.20131213 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * Avoid using git commit in direct mode, since in some situations
- it will read the full contents of files in the tree.
- * assistant: Batch jobs are now run with ionice and nocache, when
- those commands are available.
- * assistant: Run transferkeys as batch jobs.
- * Automatically fix up bad bare repositories created by
- versions 5.20131118 through 5.20131127.
- * rsync special remote: Fix fallback mode for rsync remotes that
- use hashDirMixed. Closes: #[731142](http://bugs.debian.org/731142)
- * copy --from, get --from: When --force is used, ignore the
- location log and always try to get the file from the remote.
- * Deal with box.com changing the url of their webdav endpoint.
- * Android: Fix SRV record lookups for XMPP to use android getprop
- command to find DNS server, since there is no resolv.conf.
- * import: Add --skip-duplicates option.
- * lock: Require --force. Closes: #[731606](http://bugs.debian.org/731606)
- * import: better handling of overwriting an existing file/directory/broken
- link when importing
- * Windows: assistant and webapp work! (very experimental)
- * Windows: Support annex.diskreserve.
- * Fix bad behavior in Firefox, which was caused by an earlier fix to
- bad behavior in Chromium.
- * repair: Improve repair of git-annex index file.
- * repair: Remove damaged git-annex sync branches.
- * status: Ignore new files that are gitignored.
- * Fix direct mode's handling when modifications to non-annexed files
- are pulled from a remote. A bug prevented the files from being updated
- in the work tree, and this caused the modification to be reverted.
- * OSX: Remove ssh and ssh-keygen from dmg as they're included in OSX by
- default."""]] \ No newline at end of file

-[[!toggleable text="""
- * assistant: Fix OSX-specific bug that caused the startup scan to try to
- follow symlinks to other directories, and add their contents to the annex.
- * assistant: Set StrictHostKeyChecking yes when creating ssh remotes,
- and add it to the configuration for any ssh remotes previously created
- by the assistant. This avoids repeated prompts by ssh if the host key
- changes, instead syncing with such a remote will fail. Closes: #[732602](http://bugs.debian.org/732602)
- * Fix test suite to cover lock --force change.
- * Add plumbing-level lookupkey and examinekey commands.
- * find --format: Added hashdirlower, hashdirmixed, keyname, and mtime
- format variables.
- * assistant: Always batch changes found in startup scan.
- * An armel Linux standalone build is now available, which includes the
- webapp.
- * Programs from Linux and OSX standalone builds can now be symlinked
- into a directory in PATH as an alternative installation method, and will
- use readlink to find where the build was unpacked.
- * Include man pages in Linux and OSX standalone builds.
- * Linux standalone build now includes its own glibc and forces the linker to
- use it, to remove dependence on the host glibc."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * sync --content: New option that makes the content of annexed files be
+ transferred. Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured
+ preferred content expressions.
+ * Remove --json option from commands not supporting it.
+ * status: Support --json.
+ * list: Fix specifying of files to list.
+ * Allow --all to be mixed with matching options like --copies and --in
+ (but not --include and --exclude).
+ * numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all
+ clones of a repository.
+ * The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies
+ command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies
+ git configs will be ignored.
+ * assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies.
+ * Add lackingcopies, approxlackingcopies, and unused to
+ preferred content expressions.
+ * Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories
+ now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies.
+ * Client, transfer, and source repositories now do not want to retain
+ unused file contents.
+ * assistant: Checks daily for unused file contents, and when possible
+ moves them to a repository (such as a backup repository) that
+ wants to retain them.
+ * assistant: annex.expireunused can be configured to cause unused
+ file contents to be deleted after some period of time.
+ * webapp: Nudge user to see if they want to expire old unused file
+ contents when a lot of them seem to be piling up in the repository.
+ * repair: Check git version at run time.
+ * assistant: Run the periodic git gc in batch mode.
+ * added annex.secure-erase-command config option.
+ * Optimise non-bare http remotes; no longer does a 404 to the wrong
+ url every time before trying the right url. Needs annex-bare to be
+ set to false, which is done when initially probing the uuid of a
+ http remote.
+ * webapp: After upgrading a git repository to git-annex, fix
+ bug that made it temporarily not be synced with.
+ * whereis: Support --all.
+ * All commands that support --all also support a --key option,
+ which limits them to acting on a single key."""]] \ No newline at end of file
