git-annex 8.20201129 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * New borg special remote. This is a new kind of remote, that examines
borg backups of git-annex repositories, learns what files have been
backed up, and can restore files from the backup and so on. As well
as backups, it can be useful for archival storage, since borg can
efficiently store many related versions of files.
* New config annex.stalldetection, remote.name.annex-stalldetection,
which can be used to deal with remotes that stall during transfers,
or are sometimes too slow to want to use.
* Support special remotes that are configured with importtree=yes but
without exporttree=yes.
* Fix bug that made the next download after an empty file from a ssh
or tor remote fail.
* Avoid spurious "verification of content failed" message when downloading
content from a ssh or tor remote fails due to the remote no longer
having a copy of the content.
* Fix bug that matched include= and exclude= in preferred/required content
expressions relative to the current directory, rather than the path
from the top of the repository.
(Reversion introduced in version 8.20201116.)
* Fix hang on shutdown of external special remote using ASYNC protocol
extension.
(Reversion introduced in version 8.20201007.)
* Guard against running in a repo where annex.uuid is set but
annex.version is not set, or vice-versa.
* Avoid autoinit when a repo does not have annex.version or annex.uuid
set, but has a git-annex objects directory, suggesting it was used
by git-annex before, and the git config may have been lost.
* importfeed: Avoid using youtube-dl when a feed does not contain an
enclosure, but only a link to an url which youtube-dl does not support.
* initremote: Prevent enabling encryption with exporttree=yes or
importtree=yes.
* Windows: include= and exclude= containing '/' will also match filenames
that are written using '\'. (And vice-versa, but it's better to use '/'
for portability.)
* Fix a bug that could prevent getting files from an importtree=yes
remote, because the imported tree was allowed to be garbage collected.
* stack.yaml: Updated to lts-16.27."""]]
