git-annex 5.20150812 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* Added support for SHA3 hashed keys (in 8 varieties), when git-annex is
built using the cryptonite library.
* metadata: Fix reversion introduced in 5.20150727 that caused recursive
display of metadata to not work.
* Windows: Fix bug that caused git-annex sync to fail due to missing
environment variable.
* Fix setting/setting/viewing metadata that contains unicode or other
special characters, when in a non-unicode locale.
* Simplify setup process for a ssh remote. Now it suffices to run git
remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the remote is automatically
initialized for use by git-annex, where before the git-annex branch had
to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync. Note that this
involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is using an old
version, the manual push is still needed.
* git-annex-shell: Don't let configlist auto-init repository when in
readonly mode.
* Perform a clean shutdown when --time-limit is reached.
This includes running queued git commands, and cleanup actions normally
run when a command is finished.
* fsck: Commit incremental fsck database when --time-limit is reached.
Previously, some of the last files fscked did not make it into the
database when using --time-limit.
* fsck: Commit incremental fsck database after every 1000 files
fscked, or every 5 minutes, whichever comes first. Previously,
commits were made every 1000 files fscked.
* Linux standalone: Work around problem that prevented it from working
properly if unpacked into a directory that contains ":" or ";" in its
name.
* proxy: Fix proxy git commit of non-annexed files in direct mode.
* proxy: If a non-proxied git command, such as git revert
would normally fail because of unstaged files in the work tree,
make the proxied command fail the same way.
* proxy: Fix removal of files deleted by the proxied command.
* proxy: Fix behavior when run in subdirectory of git repo.
* Improve Setup.hs file so that cabal copy --destdir works.
Thanks, Magnus Therning.
* Tighten dependency on optparse-applicative to 0.11.0.
* Added back debian/cabal-wrapper, since it still seems needed after all."""]]
