@ -7,14 +7,15 @@ git-annex (6.20180622) upstream; urgency=high
A related security fix prevents git-annex from connecting to http
servers on localhost or private networks. This can be overridden,
at your own risk, using annex.security.allowed-http-addresses.
Setting annex.web-options no longer is enough to make curl be used,
and youtube-dl is also no longer used by default. See the
documentation of annex.security.allowed-http-addresses for
details and how to enable them.
The annex.web-download-command configuration has been removed,
use annex.web-options instead.
Setting annex.web-options no longer is enough to make curl be used.
See the documentation of annex.security.allowed-http-addresses for
why and how to enable curl.
