+git-annex 5.20150508 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Improve behavior when a git-annex command is told to operate
+ on a file that doesn't exist. It will now continue to other
+ files specified after that on the command line, and only error out at
+ the end.
+ * S3: Enable debug logging when annex.debug or --debug is set.
+ * S3: git annex info will show additional information about a S3 remote
+ (endpoint, port, storage class)
+ * S3: Let git annex enableremote be used, without trying to recreate
+ a bucket that should already exist.
+ * S3: Fix incompatability with bucket names used by hS3; the aws library
+ cannot handle upper-case bucket names. git-annex now converts them to
+ lower case automatically.
+ * import: Check for gitignored files before moving them into the tree.
+ (Needs git 1.8.4 or newer.)
+ * import: Don't stop entire import when one file fails due to being
+ gitignored or conflicting with something in the work tree.
+ * import: Before removing a duplicate file in --deduplicate or
+ --clean-duplicates mode, verify that enough copies of its content still
+ exist.
+ * Improve integration with KDE's file manager to work with dolphin
+ version 14.12.3 while still being compatable with 4.14.2.
+ Thanks, silvio.
+ * assistant: Added --autostop to complement --autostart.
+ * Work around wget bug #784348 which could cause it to clobber git-annex
+ symlinks when downloading from ftp.
+ * Support checking ftp urls for file presence.
+ * Fix bogus failure of fsck --fast.
+ * fsck: Ignore error recording the fsck in the activity log,
+ which can happen when running fsck in a read-only repository.
+ Closes: #[698559](http://bugs.debian.org/698559)
+ (fsck can still need to write to the repository if it find problems,
+ but a successful fsck can be done read-only)
+ * Improve quvi 0.4 output parsing to handle cases wher there is no known
+ filename extension. This is currently the case when using quvi with
+ youtube. In this case, the extension ".m" will be used.
+ * Dropped support for older versions of yesod, warp, and dbus than the ones
+ in Debian Jessie.
+ * Switch from the obsolete dataenc library for base64 encoding to sandi.
+ (Thanks, Magnus Therning)
+ * Debian's ghc now supports TH on arm! Adjust build dependencies
+ to build the webapp on arm, and enable DAV support on arm. \o/
+ * Adjust some other arch specific build dependencies that are now
+ available on more architectures in Devian unstable.
+ * Windows: Remove cygwin ssh, the newer version of which has stopped
+ honoring the setting of HOME. Instead, copy msysgit's ssh into PATH.
+ Note that setting up a remote ssh server using password authentication
+ is known to be broken in this release on Windows.
+ * Windows: Roll back to an older version of rsync from cygwin.
+ The newer version has some dependency on a newer ssh from cygwin."""]] \ No newline at end of file
