@ -49,6 +49,25 @@ the upgrade would need to be run in a copy of the repository.
The upgrade events, so far:
## v7 -> v8 (git-annex version 8.x)
v7 repositories are automatically upgraded to v8.
Some sqlite databases that git-annex uses were changed in v8 and have to be
re-populated.
Any exports that were started in v7 and then interruped won't resume where
they left off after the v8 upgrade. Some unncessary file uploads can
happen in this situation.
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.
After the upgrade, git-annex will in some situations have to do extra
work while it finishes populating the new databases. After this one-time
speed cost, git-annex's speed will improve when using the new and improved
databases.
## v6 -> v7 (git-annex version 7.x)
v6 repositories are automatically upgraded to v7.
