git-annex (8.20200523) upstream; urgency=medium

  Transition notice: Commands like `git-annex get foo*` silently skip over
  files that are not checked into git. Since that can be surprising in many
  cases, the behavior will change to erroring out when one of the listed
  files is not checked into git. This change is planned for a git-annex
  release in early 2022. If you would like to keep the current
  behavior, use git config to set annex.skipunknown to true.

git-annex (8.20200226) upstream; urgency=medium
  
  This version of git-annex uses repository version 8 for all repositories.

  Existing repositories will be automatically upgraded by default.
  You can prevent this, by runing: git config annex.autoupgraderepository false
 
  The upgrade process involves regenerating some sqlite databases. There are a
  couple consequences of the upgrade to keep in mind:

  * Any incremental fscks that were started in v7 won't resume where
    they left off in v8, but will instead begin again from the first file.
  * An interrupted export that was started in v7 won't resume where it left
    off after upgrade to v8; files will be re-uploaded to the export remote.
  * After the upgrade, git-annex will in some situations have to do extra
    work while it finishes populating its sqlite databases.

  Also, there are some behavior changes around adding dotfiles. While before
  git-annex add skipped adding dotfiles when operating on whole directories,
  and added dotfiles that were explicitly listed to the annex, it now adds
  dotfiles to git by default, unless annex.dotfiles is set to true.

git-annex (7.20200226) upstream; urgency=high

  There was a serious regression in gcrypt and encrypted git-lfs remotes.
  Since version 7.20200202.7, git-annex incorrectly stored content
  on those remotes without encrypting it.

  If your remotes are affected, you will want to make sure to delete
  any content that git-annex has stored on them that is not encrypted!

  One way to do so is, before upgrading to this version,
  run git-annex move --from the affected remotes. It will move
  only the content that was not encrypted.

git-annex (7.20191024) upstream; urgency=medium

  When annex.largefiles is not configured, `git add` and `git commit -a`
  add files to git, not to the annex. If you have gotten used to `git add`
  adding all files to the annex, you can get that behavior back by running:
  git config annex.largefiles anything

git-annex (7.20190912) upstream; urgency=medium

  This version of git-annex uses repository version 7 for all repositories.

  Existing v5 repositories will be automatically upgraded by default.
  You can prevent this, by runing: git config annex.autoupgraderepository false

  A v7 repository can can have some files locked while other files are
  unlocked, and all git and git-annex commands can be used on both locked and
  unlocked files. It's a good idea to make sure that all users of the
  repository have upgraded git-annex and upgraded their repositories
  to the new version before starting to use that feature, since old
  versions of git-annex will ignore the new unlocked files.

  The behavior of some commands changes in an upgraded repository:
  
  * `git add` will add files to the annex, rather than adding them directly
     to the git repository. To cause some files to be added directly
     to git, you can configure `annex.largefiles`. For example:

     git config annex.largefiles "largerthan=100kb and not (include=*.c or include=*.h)"

  * `git annex unlock` and `git annex lock` change how the pointer to 
    the annexed content is stored in git. If you commit the change,
    that will impact all clones of the repository.

git-annex (7.20181031) upstream; urgency=medium

  Repository version 7 is now available. v6 repositories will automatically
  upgrade to v7. v5 repositories are still supported and will not be
  automatically upgraded yet.

  Direct mode is deprecated, and upgrading direct mode repositories to v7 is
  encouraged, unless they need to remain usable by older versions of git-annex.
  Just run `git annex upgrade`.

  git-annex will no longer initialize new repositories on crippled filesystems
  using direct mode, instead it uses v7.

  The git-annex Android app is no longer being updated. Users of the app
  should remove it and install using the new Termux based installation method.

git-annex (6.20180626) upstream; urgency=high

  A security fix has changed git-annex to refuse to download content from
  some special remotes when the content cannot be verified with a hash check.
  In particular URL and WORM keys stored on such remotes won't be downloaded.
  See the documentation of the annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads
  configuration for how to deal with this if it affects your files.

  A security fix has changed git-annex to only support http, https, and ftp
  URL schemes by default. You can enable other URL schemes, at your own risk,
  using annex.security.allowed-url-schemes.

  A related security fix prevents git-annex from connecting to http
  servers (and proxies) on localhost or private networks. This can
  be overridden, at your own risk, using annex.security.allowed-http-addresses.
  
  Setting annex.web-options no longer is enough to make curl be used,
  and youtube-dl is also no longer used by default. See the
  documentation of annex.security.allowed-http-addresses for
  details and how to enable them.

  The annex.web-download-command configuration has been removed,
  use annex.web-options instead.

git-annex (6.20180309) upstream; urgency=medium

  Note that, due to not using rsync to transfer files over ssh
  any longer, permissions and other file metadata of annexed files
  will no longer be preserved when copying them to and from ssh remotes.
  Other remotes never supported preserving that information, so
  this is not considered a regression.

git-annex (6.20170228) upstream; urgency=medium

  This version of git-annex has mitigations for SHA1 hash collision
  problems.
  
  A new annex.securehashesonly configuration, when used in combination with
  signed git commits, avoids potential hash collision problems in git-annex
  repositories. For details, see this web page:
  <https://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/using_signed_git_commits/>

git-annex (6.20170101) upstream; urgency=medium

  XMPP support has been removed from the assistant in this release.

  If your repositories used XMPP to keep in sync, that will no longer
  work, and you should enable some other remote to keep them in sync.
  A ssh server is one way, or use the new Tor pairing feature.

git-annex (4.20131002) upstream; urgency=low

   The layout of gcrypt repositories has changed, and
   if you created one you must manually upgrade it.
   See /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades/gcrypt.html

git-annex (3.20120123) upstream; urgency=low

  There was a bug in the handling of directory special remotes that
  could cause partial file contents to be stored in them. If you use
  a directory special remote, you should fsck it, to avoid potential
  data loss.

  Example: git annex fsck --from mydirectory

git-annex (3.20110624) upstream; urgency=low

  There has been another change to the git-annex data store.
  Use `git annex upgrade` to migrate your repositories to the new
  layout. See <http://git-annex.branchable.com/upgrades/> or
  /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html

  The significant change this time is that the .git-annex/ directory
  is gone; instead there is a git-annex branch that is automatically
  maintained by git-annex, and encapsulates all its state nicely out
  of your way.

  You should make sure you include the git-annex branch when
  git pushing and pulling.

git-annex (0.20110316) upstream; urgency=low

  This version reorganises the layout of git-annex's files in your repository.
  There is an upgrade process to convert a repository from the old git-annex
  to this version. See <http://git-annex.branchable.com/upgrades/> or
  /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html
