-git-annex 10.20240430 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""  * Bug fix: While redundant concurrent transfers were already
-    prevented in most cases, it failed to prevent the case where
-    two different repositories were sending the same content to
-    the same repository.
-  * addurl, importfeed: Added --verifiable option, which improves
-    the safety of --fast or --relaxed by letting the content of
-    annexed files be verified with a checksum that is calculated
-    on a later download from the web. This will become the default later.
-  * Added rclone special remote, which can be used without needing
-    to install the git-annex-remote-rclone program. This needs
-    a forthcoming version of rclone (1.67.0), which supports
-    "rclone gitannex".
-  * sync, assist, import: Allow -m option to be specified multiple
-    times, to provide additional paragraphs for the commit message.
-  * reregisterurl: New command that can change an url from being
-    used by a special remote to being used by the web remote.
-  * annex.maxextensions configuration controls how many filename
-    extensions to preserve.
-  * find: Fix --help for --copies.
-    Thanks, Gergely Risko
-  * Windows: Fix escaping output to terminal when using old
-    versions of MinTTY.
-  * Added dependency on unbounded-delays."""]]

+git-annex 10.20240831 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""  * Special remotes configured with exporttree=yes annexobjects=yes
+    can store objects in .git/annex/objects, as well as an exported tree.
+  * Support proxying to special remotes configured with
+    exporttree=yes annexobjects=yes, and allow such remotes to be used as
+    cluster nodes.
+  * post-retrieve: When proxying is enabled for an exporttree=yes
+    special remote (or it is a cluster node) and the configured
+    remote.name.annex-tracking-branch is received, the tree is
+    exported to the special remote.
+  * Support "balanced=", "fullybalanced=", "sizebalanced=" and
+    "fullysizebalanced=" in preferred content expressions.
+  * Added --rebalance option.
+  * Added the annex.fullybalancedthreshhold git config.
+  * maxsize: New command to tell git-annex how large the expected maximum
+    size of a repository is, and to display repository sizes.
+  * vicfg: Include maxsize configuration.
+  * info: Improved speed by using new repository size tracking.
+  * lookupkey: Allow using --ref in a bare repository.
+  * export: Added --from option.
+  * git-remote-annex: Store objects in exportree=yes special remotes
+    in the same paths used by annexobjects=yes. This is a backwards
+    compatible change.
+  * updateproxy, updatecluster: Prevent using an exporttree=yes special
+    remote that does not have annexobjects=yes, since it will not work.
+  * The config versioning=true is now reserved for use by versioned special
+    remotes. External special remotes should not use that config for their
+    own purposes."""]]
