git-annex 8.20210223 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * annex.stalldetection can now be set to "true" to make git-annex
do automatic stall detection when it detects a remote is updating its
transfer progress consistently enough for stall detection to work.
* When annex.stalldetection is not enabled and a likely stall is
detected, display a suggestion to enable it.
* Commands can be added to git-annex, by installing a program in PATH
with a name starting with "git-annex-"
* Fix a reversion that made import of a tree from a special remote
result in a merge that deleted files that were not preferred content
of that special remote.
* Bugfix: fsck --from a ssh remote did not actually check that the
content on the remote is not corrupted.
* unannex, uninit: When an annexed file is modified, don't overwrite
the modified version with an older version from the annex.
* When adding files to an adjusted branch set up by --unlock-present,
add them unlocked, not locked.
* Fix an oddity in matching options and preferred content expressions
such as "foo (bar or baz)", which was incorrectly handled as if
it were "(foo or bar) and baz)" rather than the intended
"foo and (bar or baz)"
* Checksum as content is received from a remote git-annex repository,
rather than doing it in a second pass.
* Tahoe: Avoid verifying hash after download, since tahoe does sufficient
verification itself.
* unannex, uninit: Don't run git rm once per annexed file,
for a large speedup.
* When a git remote is configured with an absolute path, use that
path, rather than making it relative.
* get: Improve output when failing to get a file fails.
* Fix build on openbsd.
Thanks, James Cook for the patch.
* Include libkqueue.h file needed to build the assistant on BSDs."""]]

git-annex 8.20210630 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * Fixed bug that interrupting git-annex repair (or assistant) while
it was fixing repository corruption would lose objects that were
contained in pack files. Also the assistant might sometimes have
crashed with the same result.
* repair: Fix reversion in version 8.20200522 that prevented fetching
missing objects from remotes.
* sync: Partly work around github behavior that first branch to be pushed
to a new repository is assumed to be the head branch, by not pushing
synced/git-annex first.
* Added annex.freezecontent-command and annex.thawcontent-command
configs.
* Improve display of errors when transfers fail.
* Dropping an unused object with drop --unused or dropunused will
mark it as dead, preventing fsck --all from complaining about it
after it's been dropped from all repositories.
* addurl, importfeed: Added --no-raw option that forces download
with youtube-dl or a special remote. In particular this can avoid
falling back to raw download when youtube-dl is blocked for some
reason."""]]
