git-annex 6.20171003 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* webdav: Improve error message for failed request to include the request
method and path.
* metadata: Added --remove-all.
* Warn when metadata is inherited from a previous version of a file,
to avoid the user being surprised in cases where that behavior is not
desired or expected.
* sync: Added --cleanup, which removes local and remote synced/ branches.
* external: When the external special remote program crashed, a newline
could be output, which messed up the expected output for --batch mode.
* external: Avoid checking EXPORTSUPPORTED for special remotes that are
not configured to use exports.
* test: Fix reversion that made it only run inside a git repository.
* copy, move: Behave same with --fast when sending to remotes located
on a local disk as when sending to other remotes.
* Fix process and file descriptor leak that was exposed when
git-annex was built with ghc 8.2.1. Broke git-annex test on OSX
due to running out of FDs, and may have also leaked in other situations.
* info: Improve cleanup of stale transfer info files."""]]

* add: Replace work tree file atomically on systems supporting hard
links. Avoids a window where interrupting an add could result in
the file being moved into the annex, with no symlink yet created.
* webdav: Avoid unncessisarily creating the collection at the top
of the repository when storing files there, since that collection
is created by initremote.
(This seems to work around some brokenness of the box.com webdav
server, which caused uploads to be very slow or sometimes fail.)
* webdav: Make --debug show all webdav operations.
* get -J/move -J/copy -J/mirror -J/sync -J: Avoid "transfer already in
progress" errors when two files use the same key.
* Konqueror desktop file location changed to one used by plasma 5.
Thanks, Félix Sipma.
* Avoid repeated checking that files passed on the command line exist.
* Fix build with aws-0.17.
* stack.yaml: Update to lts-9.9."""]]

* Use youtube-dl rather than quvi to download media from web pages,
since quvi is not being actively developed and youtube-dl supports
many more sites.
* addurl --relaxed got slower, since youtube-dl has to hit the network
to check for embedded media. If you relied on --relaxed not hitting the
network for speed reasons, using --relaxed --raw will get the old level
of speed, but can't be used for urls with embedded videos.
* importfeed now downloads things linked to by feeds, even when they are
not media files.
* Removed no longer needed dependency on yesod-default.
* Allow exporttree remotes to be marked as dead.
* initremote, enableremote: Really support gpg subkeys suffixed with an
exclamation mark, which forces gpg to use a specific subkey.
(Previous try had a bug.)
* lookupkey: Support being given an absolute filename to a file
within the current git repository.
* A top-level .noannex file will prevent git-annex init from being used
in a repository. This is useful for repositories that have a policy
reason not to use git-annex. The content of the file will be displayed
to the user who tries to run git-annex init."""]]
