git-annex 5.20131213 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* Avoid using git commit in direct mode, since in some situations
it will read the full contents of files in the tree.
* assistant: Batch jobs are now run with ionice and nocache, when
those commands are available.
* assistant: Run transferkeys as batch jobs.
* Automatically fix up bad bare repositories created by
versions 5.20131118 through 5.20131127.
* rsync special remote: Fix fallback mode for rsync remotes that
use hashDirMixed. Closes: #[731142](http://bugs.debian.org/731142)
* copy --from, get --from: When --force is used, ignore the
location log and always try to get the file from the remote.
* Deal with box.com changing the url of their webdav endpoint.
* Android: Fix SRV record lookups for XMPP to use android getprop
command to find DNS server, since there is no resolv.conf.
* import: Add --skip-duplicates option.
* lock: Require --force. Closes: #[731606](http://bugs.debian.org/731606)
* import: better handling of overwriting an existing file/directory/broken
link when importing
* Windows: assistant and webapp work! (very experimental)
* Windows: Support annex.diskreserve.
* Fix bad behavior in Firefox, which was caused by an earlier fix to
bad behavior in Chromium.
* repair: Improve repair of git-annex index file.
* repair: Remove damaged git-annex sync branches.
* status: Ignore new files that are gitignored.
* Fix direct mode's handling when modifications to non-annexed files
are pulled from a remote. A bug prevented the files from being updated
in the work tree, and this caused the modification to be reverted.
* OSX: Remove ssh and ssh-keygen from dmg as they're included in OSX by
default."""]]

git-annex 5.20131221 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* assistant: Fix OSX-specific bug that caused the startup scan to try to
follow symlinks to other directories, and add their contents to the annex.
* assistant: Set StrictHostKeyChecking yes when creating ssh remotes,
and add it to the configuration for any ssh remotes previously created
by the assistant. This avoids repeated prompts by ssh if the host key
changes, instead syncing with such a remote will fail. Closes: #[732602](http://bugs.debian.org/732602)
* Fix test suite to cover lock --force change.
* Add plumbing-level lookupkey and examinekey commands.
* find --format: Added hashdirlower, hashdirmixed, keyname, and mtime
format variables.
* assistant: Always batch changes found in startup scan.
* An armel Linux standalone build is now available, which includes the
webapp.
* Programs from Linux and OSX standalone builds can now be symlinked
into a directory in PATH as an alternative installation method, and will
use readlink to find where the build was unpacked.
* Include man pages in Linux and OSX standalone builds.
* Linux standalone build now includes its own glibc and forces the linker to
use it, to remove dependence on the host glibc."""]]

* sync --content: New option that makes the content of annexed files be
transferred. Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured
preferred content expressions.
* Remove --json option from commands not supporting it.
* status: Support --json.
* list: Fix specifying of files to list.
* Allow --all to be mixed with matching options like --copies and --in
(but not --include and --exclude).
* numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all
clones of a repository.
* The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies
command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies
git configs will be ignored.
* assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies.
* Add lackingcopies, approxlackingcopies, and unused to
preferred content expressions.
* Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories
now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies.
* Client, transfer, and source repositories now do not want to retain
unused file contents.
* assistant: Checks daily for unused file contents, and when possible
moves them to a repository (such as a backup repository) that
wants to retain them.
* assistant: annex.expireunused can be configured to cause unused
file contents to be deleted after some period of time.
* webapp: Nudge user to see if they want to expire old unused file
contents when a lot of them seem to be piling up in the repository.
* repair: Check git version at run time.
* assistant: Run the periodic git gc in batch mode.
* added annex.secure-erase-command config option.
* Optimise non-bare http remotes; no longer does a 404 to the wrong
url every time before trying the right url. Needs annex-bare to be
set to false, which is done when initially probing the uuid of a
http remote.
* webapp: After upgrading a git repository to git-annex, fix
bug that made it temporarily not be synced with.
* whereis: Support --all.
* All commands that support --all also support a --key option,
which limits them to acting on a single key."""]]
