git-annex 8.20200309 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
|
||||
[[!toggleable text="""
|
||||
* Fix bug that caused unlocked annexed dotfiles to be added to git by the
|
||||
smudge filter when annex.dotfiles was not set.
|
||||
* Upgrade other repos than the current one by running git-annex upgrade
|
||||
inside them, which avoids problems with upgrade code making assumptions
|
||||
that the cwd will be inside the repo being upgraded. In particular,
|
||||
this fixes a problem where upgrading a v7 repo to v8 caused an ugly
|
||||
git error message.
|
||||
* Fix upgrade failure when a file has been deleted from the working tree.
|
||||
* Fix regression 1 month ago that prevented external special remotes from
|
||||
using GETCONFIG to query values like "name".
|
||||
* Improve behavior when a directory git-annex is writing to gets
|
||||
unmounted. Previously it could in some cases re-create the mount point
|
||||
and directory tree, and even write object contents to the wrong disk.
|
||||
* Don't ignore --debug when it is followed by -c.
|
||||
* whereis: If a remote fails to report on urls where a key
|
||||
is located, display a warning, rather than giving up and not displaying
|
||||
any information.
|
||||
* When external special remotes fail but neglect to provide an error
|
||||
message, say what request failed, which is better than displaying an
|
||||
empty error message to the user.
|
||||
* git-annex config: Only allow configs be set that are ones git-annex
|
||||
actually supports reading from repo-global config, to avoid confusion.
|
||||
* Avoid converting .git file in a worktree or submodule to a symlink
|
||||
when the repository is not a git-annex repository.
|
||||
* Linux standalone: Use md5sum to shorten paths in .cache/git-annex/locales
|
||||
* Fix build with ghc 8.8 (MonadFail)
|
||||
Thanks, Peter Simons
|
||||
* stack.yaml: Updated to lts-14.27."""]]

git-annex 8.20200720 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
|
||||
[[!toggleable text="""
|
||||
* import: Added --no-content option, which avoids downloading files
|
||||
from a special remote. Currently only supported by the directory
|
||||
special remote.
|
||||
* Honor annex.largefiles when importing a tree from a special remote.
|
||||
(Except for when --no-content is used.)
|
||||
* Fix a deadlock that could occur after git-annex got an unlocked
|
||||
file, causing the command to hang indefinitely. Known to happen on
|
||||
vfat filesystems, possibly others.
|
||||
* Build with the http-client-restricted and git-lfs libraries when
|
||||
available, otherwise use the vendored copy as before.
|
||||
* testremote: Fix over-allocation of resources and bad caching,
|
||||
including starting up a large number of external special remote processes.
|
||||
(Regression introduced in version 8.20200501)
|
||||
* test: Fix some test cases that assumed git's default branch name.
|
||||
* importfeed: Added some additional --template variables:
|
||||
itempubyear, itempubmonth, itempubday, itempubhour,
|
||||
itempubminute, itempubsecond.
|
||||
* Made several special remotes support locking content on them,
|
||||
which allows dropping from other special remotes in some situations
|
||||
where it was not possible before. Supported special remotes:
|
||||
S3 (with versioning=yes), git-lfs, tahoe
|
||||
* Fix reversion that broke passing annex.* and remote.*.annex-*
|
||||
git configs with -c. (Since version 8.20200330.)
|
||||
* Bring back git-annex branch read cache. This speeds up some operations,
|
||||
eg git-annex sync --content --all gets 20% faster.
|
||||
* Fix a recently introduced bug that could cause a "fork: resource exhausted"
|
||||
after getting several thousand files.
|
||||
* Sped up the --all option by 2x to 16x by using git cat-file --buffer.
|
||||
Thanks to Lukey for finding this optimisation.
|
||||
* Sped up seeking for annexed files to operate on by a factor of nearly 2x.
|
||||
* Sped up sync --content by 2x and other commands like fsck --fast and
|
||||
whereis by around 50%, by using git cat-file --buffer.
|
||||
* importfeed: Made checking known urls step around 15% faster.
|
||||
* fsck: Detect if WORM keys contain a carriage return, and recommend
|
||||
upgrading the key. (git-annex could have maybe created such keys back
|
||||
in 2013).
|
||||
* When on an adjust --hide-missing branch, fix handling of files that
|
||||
have been deleted but the deletion is not yet staged."""]]
