* Honor core.sharedrepository when receiving and adding files in direct
mode.
* enableremote: gpg keys can be removed from those a remote encrypts
to by passing "keyid-=$KEYID". keyid+= is also provided, although
"encryption=$KEYID" can also be used as always.
(Thanks, guilhem for the patch.)
* initremote: A new encryption scheme can be selected with
"encryption=pubkey keyid=$KEYID"
This causes files placed on special remotes to be directly
encrypted to the specified key(s). It is not possible to add
other keys later and have them immedately be able to access those
encrypted files, like can be done with the default encryption scheme.
However, pubkey encryption may be considered more secure due to being
and more standard use of gpg that avoids symmetric encryption algorythms,
or just simpler if you're the only person you ever intend to use a
particular encrypted special remote.
(Thanks, guilhem for the patch.)
