-   * When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata,
-     etc, only operate on the provided files when they match those options.
-     Otherwise, a blank line is output in the batch protocol.
-     Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get
-   * Make metadata --batch combined with matching options refuse to run,
-     since it does not seem worth supporting that combination.
-   * v6 add: Take advantage of improved SIGPIPE handler in git 2.5 to
-     speed up the clean filter by not reading the file content from the
-     pipe. This also avoids git buffering the whole file content in memory.
-   * v6: After updating the worktree for an add/drop, update git's index,
-     so git status will not show the files as modified.
-   * v6: When annex.largefiles is not configured for a file, running git
-     add or git commit, or otherwise using git to stage a file
-     will add it to the annex if the file was in the annex before,
-     and to git otherwise. This is to avoid accidental conversion.
-     Note that git-annex add's behavior has not changed.
-   * v6: Update associated files database when git has staged changes
-     to pointer files.
-   * v6: Fix some race conditions.
-   * v6: Fix annex object file permissions when git-annex add is run
-     on a modified unlocked file, and in some related cases.
-   * v6: When a file is unlocked but has not been modified,
-     and the unlocking is only staged, git-annex add did not lock it.
-     Now it will, for consistency with how modified files are handled and
-     with v5.
-   * Fix git command queue to be concurrency safe.
-   * linux standalone: When LOCPATH is already set, use it instead of the
-     bundled locales. It can be set to an empty string to use the system
-     locales too.
-   * Stop using external hash programs, since cryptonite is faster.
-   * Fix build on FreeBSD.
-   * S3: Support buckets with versioning enabled. When a remote
-     is configured with exporttree=yes versioning=yes, git-annex can
-     download past versions of exported files from it.
-   * S3: Multipart uploads are now only supported when git-annex is built
-     with aws-0.16.0 or later, as earlier versions of the library don't
-     support versioning with multipart uploads.
-   * S3: Support AWS\_SESSION\_TOKEN.
-   * Don't use GIT\_PREFIX when GIT\_WORK\_TREE=. because it seems git
-     does not intend GIT\_WORK\_TREE to be relative to GIT\_PREFIX in that
-     case, despite GIT\_WORK\_TREE=.. being relative to GIT\_PREFIX.
-   * Don't use GIT\_PREFIX to fix up a relative GIT\_DIR, because
-     git 2.11 sets GIT\_PREFIX to a path it's not relative to.
-     and apparently GIT\_DIR is never relative to GIT\_PREFIX.
-   * git-annex.cabal: Fix build without assistant, and some other refinements.
-     Thanks fftehnik."""]]
