-git-annex 10.20240701 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""  * git-annex remotes can now act as proxies that provide access to
-    their remotes. Configure this with remote.name.annex-proxy
-    and the git-annex update proxy command.
-  * Clusters are now supported. These are collections of nodes that can
-    be accessed as a single entity, accessed by one or more gateway
-    repositories.
-  * Added git-annex initcluster, updatecluster, and extendcluster commands.
-  * Fix a bug where interrupting git-annex while it is updating the
-    git-annex branch for an export could later lead to git fsck
-    complaining about missing tree objects.
-  * Tab completion of options like --from now includes special remotes,
-    as well as proxied remotes and clusters.
-  * Tab completion of many commands like info and trust now includes
-    remotes.
-  * P2P protocol version 2.
-  * Fix Windows build with Win32 2.13.4+
-    Thanks, Oleg Tolmatcev
-  * When --debugfilter or annex.debugfilter is set, avoid propigating
-    debug output from git-annex-shell, since it cannot be filtered."""]]

+git-annex 10.20241031 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""  * Sped up proxied downloads from special remotes, by streaming.
+  * Added GETORDERED request to external special remote protocol.
+    When the external special remote responds with ORDERED, it can stream
+    through a proxy.
+  * p2phttp: Support serving unauthenticated users while requesting
+    authentication for operations that need it. Eg, --unauth-readonly
+    can be combined with --authenv.
+  * p2phttp: Allow unauthenticated users to lock content by default.
+  * p2phttp: Added --unauth-nolocking option to prevent unauthenticated
+    users from locking content.
+  * Allow enabling the servant build flag with older versions of stm,
+    allowing building with ghc 9.0.2.
+  * git-remote-annex: Fix bug that prevented using it with external special
+    remotes, leading to protocol error messages involving "GITMANIFEST".
+  * adjust: Allow any order of options when combining --hide-missing with
+    options like --unlock.
+  * Support P2P protocol version 4. This allows DATA-PRESENT to be sent
+    after PUT (and in the HTTP P2P protocol, v4/put has a data-present
+    parameter). When used with a proxy to a special remote like a S3
+    bucket, this allows a custom client to upload content to S3 itself,
+    and then use the P2P protocol to inform the proxy that the content has
+    been stored there, which will result in the same git-annex branch state
+    updates as sending DATA via the proxy.
+  * Fix hang when receiving a large file into a proxied special remote."""]]
