This version reorganises the layout of git-annex's files in your repository.
There is an upgrade process to convert a repository from the old git-annex
to this version. While git-annex will attempt to transparently handle
upgrades, you may want to drive the upgrade process by hand.
See [[upgrades]] for details.
git-annex 0.20110316 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* New repository format, annex.version=2.
* The first time git-annex is run in an old format repository, it
will automatically upgrade it to the new format, staging all
necessary changes to git. Also added a "git annex upgrade" command.
* Colons are now avoided in filenames, so bare clones of git repos
can be put on USB thumb drives formatted with vFAT or similar
filesystems.
* Added two levels of hashing to object directory and .git-annex logs,
to improve scalability with enormous numbers of annexed
objects. (With one hundred million annexed objects, each
directory would contain fewer than 1024 files.)
* The setkey, fromkey, and dropkey subcommands have changed how
the key is specified. --backend is no longer used with these."""]]

git-annex 0.20110417 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* bup is now supported as a special type of remote.
* The data sent to special remotes (Amazon S3, bup, etc) can be encrypted
using GPG for privacy.
* Use lowercase hash directories for locationlog files, to avoid
some issues with git on OSX with the mixed-case directories.
No migration is needed; the old mixed case hash directories are still
read; new information is written to the new directories.
* Unused files on remotes, particulary special remotes, can now be
identified and dropped, by using "--from remote" with git annex unused
and git annex dropunused.
* Clear up short option confusion between --from and --force (-f is now
--from, and there is no short option for --force).
* Add build depend on perlmagick so docs are consistently built.
Closes: #[621410](http://bugs.debian.org/621410)
* Add doc-base file. Closes: #[621408](http://bugs.debian.org/621408)
* Periodically flush git command queue, to avoid boating memory usage
too much.
* Support "sha1" and "sha512" commands on FreeBSD, and allow building
if any/all SHA commands are not available. Thanks, Fraser Tweedale"""]]
