-git-annex 6.20161111 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * Restarting a crashing git process could result in filename encoding
- issues when not in a unicode locale, as the restarted processes's
- handles were not read in raw mode.
- * Make .git/annex/ssh.config file work with versions of ssh older than
- 7.3, which don't support Include. When used with an older version
- of ssh, any ServerAliveInterval in ~/.ssh/config will be overridden
- by .git/annex/ssh.config.
- * S3: Support the special case endpoint needed for the cn-north-1 region.
- * Webapp: Don't list the Frankfurt S3 region, as this (and some other new
- regions) need V4 authorization which the aws library does not yet use.
- * reinject --known: Avoid second, unncessary checksum of file.
- * OSX: Remove RPATHs from git-annex binary, which are not needed,
- slow down startup, and break the OSX Sierra linker.
- * webapp: Explicitly avoid checking for auth in static subsite
- requests. Yesod didn't used to do auth checks for that, but this may
- have changed.
- * Linux standalone: Avoid using hard links in the tarball so it can be
- untarred on eg, afs which does not support them."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+git-annex 6.20170214 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Increase default cost for p2p remotes from 200 to 1000.
+ This makes git-annex prefer transferring data from special
+ remotes when possible.
+ * Remove -j short option for --json-progress; that option was already
+ taken for --json.
+ * vicfg: Include the numcopies configuation.
+ * config: New command for storing configuration in the git-annex branch.
+ * annex.autocommit can be configured via git-annex config, to control
+ the default behavior in all clones of a repository.
+ * New annex.synccontent config setting, which can be set to true to make
+ git annex sync default to --content. This may become the default at
+ some point in the future. As well as being configuable by git config,
+ it can be configured by git-annex config to control the default
+ behavior in all clones of a repository.
+ * stack.yaml: Update to lts-7.18.
+ * Some optimisations to string splitting code.
+ * unused: When large files are checked right into git, avoid buffering
+ their contents in memory.
+ * unused: Improved memory use significantly when there are a lot
+ of differences between branches.
+ * Wormhole pairing will start to provide an appid to wormhole on
+ 2021-12-31. An appid can't be provided now because Debian stable is going
+ to ship a older version of git-annex that does not provide an appid.
+ Assumption is that by 2021-12-31, this version of git-annex will be
+ shipped in a Debian stable release. If that turns out to not be the
+ case, this change will need to be cherry-picked into the git-annex in
+ Debian stable, or its wormhole pairing will break.
+ * Fix build with aws 0.16. Thanks, aristidb.
+ * assistant: Make --autostart --foreground wait for the children it
+ starts. Before, the --foreground was ignored when autostarting.
+ * initremote: When a uuid= parameter is passed, use the specified
+ UUID for the new special remote, instead of generating a UUID.
+ This can be useful in some situations, eg when the same data can be
+ accessed via two different special remote backends.
+ * import: Changed how --deduplicate, --skip-duplicates, and
+ --clean-duplicates determine if a file is a duplicate.
+ Before, only content known to be present somewhere was considered
+ a duplicate. Now, any content that has been annexed before will be
+ considered a duplicate, even if all annexed copies of the data have
+ been lost.
+ Note that --clean-duplicates and --deduplicate still check
+ numcopies, so won't delete duplicate files unless there's an annexed
+ copy.
+ * import: --deduplicate and --skip-duplicates were implemented
+ inneficiently; they unncessarily hashed each file twice. They have
+ been improved to only hash once.
+ * import: Added --reinject-duplicates.
+ * Added git template directory to Linux standalone tarball and OSX
+ app bundle.
+ * Improve pid locking code to work on filesystems that don't support hard
+ links.
+ * S3: Fix check of uuid file stored in bucket, which was not working.
+ * Work around sqlite's incorrect handling of umask when creating
+ databases."""]] \ No newline at end of file
