In v6 repository mode, this makes git add - add files to the annex in unlocked mode, unless overridden by - annex.largefiles configuration. -* assistant: In v6 mode, adds files in unlocked mode, so they can - continue to be modified. -* Added annex.thin setting, which makes unlocked files in v6 repositories - be hard linked to their content, instead of a copy. This saves disk - space but means any modification of an unlocked file will lose the local - (and possibly only) copy of the old version. -* Enable annex.thin by default on upgrade from direct mode to v6, since - direct mode made the same tradeoff. -* fix: Adjusts unlocked files as configured by annex.thin. -* persistent-sqlite is now a hard build dependency, since v6 repository - mode needs it. -* status: On crippled filesystems, was displaying M for all annexed files - that were present. Probably caused by a change to what git status - displays in this situation. Fixed by treating files git thinks are - modified the same as typechanged files. -* addurl: Added --batch and --with-files options. -* addurl: Support --json, particularly useful in --batch mode. -* addurl: Refuse to overwrite any existing, non-annexed file. -* Debian: Adjust build dependencies for webapp, DAV. Now available on - mips, mipsel, but temporarily removed armel since build is failing - there. -* info: Fix "backend usage" numbers, which were counting present keys - twice. -* info --json: Improve json for "backend usage", using a nested object - with fields for each backend instead of the previous weird nested lists. - This may break existing parsers of this json output, if there were any. -* whereis --json: Make url list be included in machine-parseable form. -* test: Added --keep-failures option. -* unused: Bug fix when a new file was added to the annex, and then - removed (but not git rmed). git still has the add staged in this case, - so the content should not be unused and was wrongly treated as such. -* migrate: Copy over metadata to new key. -* rekey: No longer copies over urls from the old to the new key. - It makes sense for migrate to do that, but not for this low-level - (and little used) plumbing command to. -* view: Fix crash in non-unicode capable locale when entering a view - of metadata containing a slash or backslash. -* When annex.http-headers is used to set the User-Agent header, avoid - sending User-Agent: git-annex -* Windows: Fix rsync cross-drive hack to work with msys2 rsync. - Thanks, Pieter Kitslaar."""]] |
