git-annex (3.20111123) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
- * Put a workaround in the directory special remote for strange behavior
- with VFAT filesystems on Linux (mounted with shortname=mixed)
+ * The VFAT filesystem on recent versions of Linux, when mounted with
+ shortname=mixed, does not get along well with git-annex's mixed case
+ .git/annex/objects hash directories. To better support it, bare
+ repositories (and the directory special remote) now store content
+ in all-lowercase hash directories. Mixed case hash directories are
+ still used for non-bare directories, which cannot be put in VFAT.
* Flush json output, avoiding a buffering problem that could result in
doubled output.
* Avoid needing haskell98 and other fixes for new ghc. Thanks, Mark Wright.
