git-annex 4.20130709 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* --all: New switch that makes git-annex operate on all data stored
in the git annex, including old versions of files. Supported by
fsck, get, move, copy.
* --unused: New switch that makes git-annex operate on all data found
by the last run of git annex unused. Supported by fsck, get, move, copy.
* get, move, copy: Can now be run in a bare repository,
like fsck already could. --all is enabled automatically in this case.
* merge: Now also merges synced/master or similar branches, which
makes it useful to put in a post-receive hook to make a repository
automatically update its working copy when git annex sync or the assistant
sync with it.
* webapp: Fix ssh setup with nonstandard port, broken in last release.
* init: Detect systems on which git commit fails due to not being able to
determine the FQDN, and put in a workaround so committing to the git-annex
branch works.
* addurl --pathdepth: Fix failure when the pathdepth specified is deeper
than the urls's path.
* Windows: Look for .exe extension when searching for a command in path.
* Pass -f to curl when downloading a file with it, so it propigates failure.
* Windows: Fix url to object when using a http remote.
* webapp: Fix authorized\_keys line added when setting up a rsync remote
on a server that also supports git-annex, to not force running
git-annex-shell.
* OSX Mountain Lion: Fixed gpg bundled in dmg to not fail due to a missing
gpg-agent.
* Android: gpg is built without --enable-minimal, so it interoperates
better with other gpg builds that may default to using other algorithms
for encryption.
* dropunused, addunused: Complain when asked to operate on a number that
does not correspond to any unused key.
* fsck: Don't claim to fix direct mode when run on a symlink whose content
is not present.
* Make --numcopies override annex.numcopies set in .gitattributes."""]]

git-annex 4.20130723 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* Fix data loss bug when adding an (uncompressed) tarball of a
git-annex repository, or other file that begins with something
that can be mistaken for a git-annex link. Closes: #[717456](http://bugs.debian.org/717456)
* New improved version of the git-annex logo, contributed by
John Lawrence.
* Rsync.net have committed to support git-annex and offer a special
discounted rate for git-annex users. Updated the webapp to reflect this.
http://www.rsync.net/products/git-annex-pricing.html
* Install XDG desktop icon files.
* Support unannex and uninit in direct mode.
* Support import in direct mode.
* webapp: Better display of added files.
* fix: Preserve the original mtime of fixed symlinks.
* uninit: Preserve .git/annex/objects at the end, if it still
has content, so that old versions of files and deleted files
are not deleted. Print a message with some suggested actions.
* When a transfer is already being run by another process,
proceed on to the next file, rather than dying.
* Fix checking when content is present in a non-bare repository
accessed via http.
* Display byte sizes with more precision.
* watcher: Fixed a crash that could occur when a directory was renamed
or deleted before it could be scanned.
* watcher: Partially worked around a bug in hinotify, no longer crashes
if hinotify cannot process a directory (but can't detect changes in it)
* directory special remote: Fix checking that there is enough disk space
to hold an object, was broken when using encryption.
* webapp: Differentiate between creating a new S3/Glacier/WebDav remote,
and initializing an existing remote. When creating a new remote, avoid
conflicts with other existing (or deleted) remotes with the same name.
* When an XMPP server has SRV records, try them, but don't then fall
back to the regular host if they all fail.
* For long hostnames, use a hash of the hostname to generate the socket
file for ssh connection caching."""]]

git-annex 4.20130909 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* initremote: Syntax change when setting up an encrypted special remote.
Now use keyid=$KEYID rather than the old encryption=$KEYID
* forget: New command, causes git-annex branch history to be forgotten
in a way that will spread to other clones of the repository.
(As long as they're running this version or newer of git-annex.)
* forget --drop-dead: Completely removes mentions of repositories that
have been marked as dead from the git-annex branch.
* sync, assistant: Force push of the git-annex branch. Necessary
to ensure it gets pushed to remotes after being rewritten by forget.
* Added gcrypt support. This combines a fully encrypted git
repository (using git-remote-gcrypt) with an encrypted git-annex special
remote.
* sync: Support syncing with gcrypt remotes.
* importfeed: Also ignore transient problems with downloading content
from feeds.
* Honor core.sharedrepository when receiving and adding files in direct
mode.
* enableremote: gpg keys can be removed from those a remote encrypts
to by passing "keyid-=$KEYID". keyid+= is also provided.
(Thanks, guilhem for the patch.)
* Added encryption=pubkey scheme, which encrypts to public keys directly
rather than the hybrid approach. See documentation for advantages
and disadvantages, but encryption=hybrid is the recommended scheme still.
(Thanks, guilhem for the patch.)
* Fix Feeds display in build flags.
* Remind user when annex-ignore is set for some remotes, if unable to
get or drop a file, possibly because it's on an ignored remote.
* gpg: Force --no-textmode in case the user has it turned on in config.
* webapp: Improve javascript's handling of longpolling connection
failures, by reloading the current page in this case.
Works around chromium behavior where ajax connections to urls
that were already accessed are denied after navigating back to
a previous page.
* Allow building without quvi support."""]]
