git-annex 8.20201103 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* move: Improve resuming a move that was interrupted after the object
was transferred, in cases where numcopies checks prevented the resumed
move from dropping the object from the source repository.
* When a special remote has chunking enabled, but no chunk sizes are
recorded (or the recorded ones are not found), speculatively try
chunks using the configured chunk size.
* Fixed some problems that prevented this command from working:
git submodule foreach git annex init
* Improve shutdown process for external special remotes and external
backends. Make sure to relay any remaining stderr from the process,
and potentially avoid the process getting a SIGPIPE if it writes to
stderr too late.
* Fix a bug that prevented linux standalone bundle from working on a fresh
install.
* Windows build changed to one done by the datalad-extensions project
using Github actions.
* Windows build now includes libmagic, so mimetype and mimeencoding
will work.
Thanks to John Thorvald Wodder II and Yaroslav Halchenko for their work
on this.
* view: Avoid using ':' from metadata when generating a view, because
it's a special character on Windows ("c:")
* Fix a memory leak introduced in the last release.
* add, import: Fix a reversion in 7.20191009 that broke handling
of --largerthan and --smallerthan.
* view: Fix a reversion in 8.20200522 that broke entering or changing views.
* Fix build on Windows with network-3.
* testremote: Display exceptions when tests fail, to aid debugging.

git-annex 8.20210223 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * annex.stalldetection can now be set to "true" to make git-annex
do automatic stall detection when it detects a remote is updating its
transfer progress consistently enough for stall detection to work.
* When annex.stalldetection is not enabled and a likely stall is
detected, display a suggestion to enable it.
* Commands can be added to git-annex, by installing a program in PATH
with a name starting with "git-annex-"
* Fix a reversion that made import of a tree from a special remote
result in a merge that deleted files that were not preferred content
of that special remote.
* Bugfix: fsck --from a ssh remote did not actually check that the
content on the remote is not corrupted.
* unannex, uninit: When an annexed file is modified, don't overwrite
the modified version with an older version from the annex.
* When adding files to an adjusted branch set up by --unlock-present,
add them unlocked, not locked.
* Fix an oddity in matching options and preferred content expressions
such as "foo (bar or baz)", which was incorrectly handled as if
it were "(foo or bar) and baz)" rather than the intended
"foo and (bar or baz)"
* Checksum as content is received from a remote git-annex repository,
rather than doing it in a second pass.
* Tahoe: Avoid verifying hash after download, since tahoe does sufficient
verification itself.
* unannex, uninit: Don't run git rm once per annexed file,
for a large speedup.
* When a git remote is configured with an absolute path, use that
path, rather than making it relative.
* get: Improve output when failing to get a file fails.
* Fix build on openbsd.
Thanks, James Cook for the patch.
* Include libkqueue.h file needed to build the assistant on BSDs."""]]
