git-annex 8.20210621 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * New matching options --excludesamecontent and --includesamecontent
* When two files have the same content, and a required content expression
matches one but not the other, dropping the latter file will fail as it
would also remove the content of the required file.
* drop, move, mirror: When two files have the same content, and
different numcopies or requiredcopies values, use the higher value.
* drop --auto: When two files have the same content, and a preferred content
expression matches one but not the other, do not drop the content.
* sync --content, assistant: When two unlocked files have the same
content, and a preferred content expression matches one but not the
other, do not drop the content. (This was already the case for locked
files.)
* sync --content, assistant: Fix an edge case where a file that is not
preferred content did not get dropped.
* filter-branch: New command, useful to produce a filtered version of the
git-annex branch, eg when splitting a repository.
* fromkey: Create an unlocked file when used in an adjusted branch
where the file should be unlocked, or when configured by annex.addunlocked.
* Fix behavior of several commands, including reinject, addurl, and rmurl
when given an absolute path to an unlocked file, or a relative path
that leaves and re-enters the repository.
* smudge: Fix a case where an unlocked annexed file that annex.largefiles
does not match could get its unchanged content checked into git,
due to git running the smudge filter unecessarily.
* reinject: Error out when run on a file that is not annexed, rather
than silently skipping it.
* assistant: Fix a crash on startup by avoiding using forkProcess.
* init: When annex.commitmessage is set, use that message for the commit
that creates the git-annex branch.
* Added annex.adviceNoSshCaching config.
* Added --size-limit option.
* Future proof activity log parsing.
* Fix an exponential slowdown when large numbers of duplicate files are
being added in unlocked form."""]]

git-annex 8.20211011 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * Added annex.bwlimit and remote.name.annex-bwlimit config to limit
the bandwidth of transfers. It works for git remotes and many
but not all special remotes.
* Bug fix: Git configs such as annex.verify were incorrectly overriding
per-remote git configs such as remote.name.annex-verify.
(Reversion in version 4.20130323)
* borg: Significantly improved memory use when a borg repository
contains many archives.
* borg: Avoid trying to extract xattrs, ACLS, and bsdflags when
retrieving from a borg repository.
* Sped up git-annex smudge --clean by 25%.
* Resume where it left off when copying a file to/from a local git remote
was interrupted.
* sync --content: Avoid a redundant checksum of a file that was
incrementally verified, when used on NTFS and perhaps other filesystems.
* reinject: Fix crash when reinjecting a file from outside the repository.
(Reversion in version 8.20210621)
* Avoid cursor jitter when updating progress display."""]]
