git-annex 8.20201129 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * New borg special remote. This is a new kind of remote, that examines
borg backups of git-annex repositories, learns what files have been
backed up, and can restore files from the backup and so on. As well
as backups, it can be useful for archival storage, since borg can
efficiently store many related versions of files.
* New config annex.stalldetection, remote.name.annex-stalldetection,
which can be used to deal with remotes that stall during transfers,
or are sometimes too slow to want to use.
* Support special remotes that are configured with importtree=yes but
without exporttree=yes.
* Fix bug that made the next download after an empty file from a ssh
or tor remote fail.
* Avoid spurious "verification of content failed" message when downloading
content from a ssh or tor remote fails due to the remote no longer
having a copy of the content.
* Fix bug that matched include= and exclude= in preferred/required content
expressions relative to the current directory, rather than the path
from the top of the repository.
(Reversion introduced in version 8.20201116.)
* Fix hang on shutdown of external special remote using ASYNC protocol
extension.
(Reversion introduced in version 8.20201007.)
* Guard against running in a repo where annex.uuid is set but
annex.version is not set, or vice-versa.
* Avoid autoinit when a repo does not have annex.version or annex.uuid
set, but has a git-annex objects directory, suggesting it was used
by git-annex before, and the git config may have been lost.
* importfeed: Avoid using youtube-dl when a feed does not contain an
enclosure, but only a link to an url which youtube-dl does not support.
* initremote: Prevent enabling encryption with exporttree=yes or
importtree=yes.
* Windows: include= and exclude= containing '/' will also match filenames
that are written using '\'. (And vice-versa, but it's better to use '/'
for portability.)
* Fix a bug that could prevent getting files from an importtree=yes
remote, because the imported tree was allowed to be garbage collected.
* stack.yaml: Updated to lts-16.27."""]]

git-annex 8.20210428 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * New annex.private and remote.name.annex-private configs that can
prevent storing information about a repository and remotes in the
git-annex branch.
* initremote: Added --private option to set up a private special remote.
* importfeed: Made "checking known urls" phase run 12 times faster.
* Added --debugfilter (and annex.debugfilter)
* diffdriver: Support unlocked files.
* forget: Preserve currently exported trees, avoiding problems with
exporttree remotes in some unusual circumstances.
* fsck: When downloading content from a remote, if the content is able
to be verified during the transfer, skip checksumming it a second time.
* directory: When cp supports reflinks, use it.
* Avoid excess commits to the git-annex branch when stall detection is
enabled.
* git-annex-config: Allow setting annex.securehashesonly, which has
otherwise been supported since 2019, but was missing from the list of
allowed repo-global configs.
* init: Fix a crash when the repo's was cloned from a repo that had an
adjusted branch checked out, and the origin remote is not named "origin".
* Fix some bugs that made git-annex not see recently recorded status
information when configured with annex.alwayscommit=false.
* When mincopies is set to a larger value than numcopies, make sure that
mincopies is satisfied. Before, it assumed a sane configuration would
have numcopies larger or equal to mincopies. It's still a good idea
not to configure git-annex this way.
* Avoid more than 1 gpg password prompt at the same time, which
could happen occasionally before when concurrency is enabled.
* Fix build with persistent-2.12.0.1"""]]
