git-annex 6.20180409 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* Added adb special remote which allows exporting files to Android devices.
* For url downloads, git-annex now defaults to using a http library,
rather than wget or curl. But, if annex.web-options is set, it will
use curl. To use the .netrc file, run:
git config annex.web-options --netrc
* git-annex no longer uses wget (and wget is no longer shipped with
git-annex builds).
* Enable HTTP connection reuse across multiple files for improved speed.
* Fix calculation of estimated completion for progress meter.
* OSX app: Work around libz/libPng/ImageIO.framework version skew
by not bundling libz, assuming OSX includes a suitable libz.1.dylib.
* Added annex.retry, annex.retry-delay, and per-remote versions
to configure transfer retries.
* Also do forward retrying in cases where no exception is thrown,
but the transfer failed.
* When adding a new version of a file, and annex.genmetadata is enabled,
don't copy the data metadata from the old version of the file,
instead use the mtime of the file.
* Avoid running annex.http-headers-command more than once.
* info: Added "combined size of repositories containing these files"
stat when run on a directory.
* info: Changed sorting of numcopies stats table, so it's ordered
by the variance from the desired number of copies.
* Fix resuming a download when using curl."""]]
