git-annex 6.20160229 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* Update perlmagick build dependency. Closes: #[789225](http://bugs.debian.org/789225)
* Fix memory leak in last release, which affected commands like
git-annex status when a large non-annexed file is present in the work
tree.
* fsck: When the only copy of a file is in a dead repository, mention
the repository.
* info: Mention when run in a dead repository.
* Linux and OSX standalone builds put the bundled gpg last in PATH,
so any system gpg will be preferred over it.
* Avoid crashing when built with MagicMime support, but when the magic
database cannot be loaded.
* Include magic database in the linux and OSX standalone builds.
* Fix memory leak when hashing files, which triggered during fsck
when an external hash program was not used.
(This leak was introduced in version 6.20160114.)
* Support --metadata field<number, --metadata field>number etc
to match ranges of numeric values.
* Similarly, support preferred content expressions like
metadata=field<number and metadata=field>number
* The pre-commit-annex hook script that automatically extracts
metadata has been updated to also use exiftool.
Thanks, Klaus Ethgen."""]]
