+I've had to release git-annex twice this week to fix reversions. On Monday,
+just after I made a planned release, I discovered a bug in it, and had to
+update it with a .1 release. Today's release fixes 2 other reversions
+introduced by recent changes, both only affecting the assistant.
+
+Before making today's release, I did a bunch of other minor bugfixes and
+improvements, including adding a new `contentlocationn` plumbing command.
+This release also changes `git annex add` when annex.largefiles is
+configured, so it will `git add` the non-large files. That is particularly
+useful in direct mode.
+
+I feel that the assistant needs some TLC, so I might devote a week to it in
+the latter part of this month. My current funding doesn't cover work
+on the assistant, but I should have some spare time toward the end of the
+month.

+There's not a lot of places where git-annex could make this slower.
+git-annex copy is just running rsync to the ssh server.
+
+Have you tried benchmarking rsync of a large file to the server w/o
+git-annex? rsync does do considerably more client-side work than does
+scp, in order to support resuming, so that might be it.

- * glacier: Detect when the glacier command in PATH is the wrong one,
- from boto, rather than from glacier-cli, and refuse to use it,
- since the boto program fails to fail when passed
- parameters it does not understand.
- * groupwanted: New command to set the groupwanted preferred content
- expression.
- * import: Support file matching options such as --exclude, --include,
- --smallerthan, --largerthan
- * The file matching options are now only accepted by commands that
- can actually use them, instead of by all commands.
- * import: Avoid checksumming file twice when run in the default
- or --duplicate mode.
- * Windows: Fix bug in dropping an annexed file, which
- caused a symlink to be staged that contained backslashes.
- * webapp: Fix reversion in opening webapp when starting it manually
- inside a repository.
- * assistant: Improve sanity check for control characters when pairing.
- * Improve race recovery code when committing to git-annex branch.
- * addurl: Avoid crash if quvi is not installed, when git-annex was
- built with process-1.2
- * bittorrent: Fix mojibake introduced in parsing arai2c progress output.
- * fsck --from: If a download from a remote fails, propagate the failure.
- * metadata: When setting metadata, do not recurse into directories by
- default, since that can be surprising behavior and difficult to recover
- from. The old behavior is available by using --force.
- * sync, assistant: Include repository name in head branch commit message.
- * The ssh-options git config is now used by gcrypt, rsync, and ddar
- special remotes that use ssh as a transport.
- * sync, assistant: Use the ssh-options git config when doing git pull
- and push.
- * remotedaemon: Use the ssh-options git config.
- * Linux standalone: Improved process names of linker shimmed programs."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+ * This fixes a bug in the assistant introduced by the literal pathspec
+ changes in version 5.20150406.
+ * --quiet now suppresses progress displays from eg, rsync.
+ (Second time's the charm..)
+ * fromkey, registerurl: When reading from stdin, allow the
+ filename and url, respectively, to contain whitespace.
+ * add: If annex.largefiles is set and does not match a file that's being
+ added, the file will be checked into git rather than being added to the
+ annex. Previously, git annex add skipped over such files; this new
+ behavior is more useful in direct mode.
+ * proxy: Made it work when run in a new repository before initial
+ commit.
+ * info: Display repository mode: bare when in a bare (non-direct mode)
+ repo.
+ * importfeed: Fix feed download when curl is used.
+ * importfeed: Error out when passed a non-url.
+ * webapp: When adding another local repository, and combining it
+ with the current repository, the new repository's remote path
+ was set to "." rather than the path to the current repository.
+ This was a reversion caused by the relative path changes in 5.20150113.
