Microbenchmarks show around 10-25% speedup of sqlite database operations.
* Improved serialization of filenames and keys to the sqlite databases,
avoiding encoding problems.
* annex.dotfiles configuration setting can be used to let dotfiles
be added to the annex the same as other files. When it's set,
annex.largefiles can be used to match whatever dotfiles should be added.
* add: Explicitly passing dotfiles no longer adds them to the annex,
unless you set annex.dotfiles=true.
* add: When adding a whole directory, any dotfiles found in it will
not be skipped, but will be added to git by default. This behavior
can be configured with annex.dotfiles.
* add: Removed special case for explicitly passing dotfiles,
that no longer adds them to the annex, but to git. This behavior
can be configured with annex.dotfiles.
* add: Removed the --include-dotfiles option.

After the upgrade, git-annex will in some situations have to do extra

Also, there are some behavior changes around adding dotfiles. While before
git-annex add skipped adding dotfiles when operating on whole directories,
and added dotfiles that were explicitly listed to the annex, it now adds
