git-annex 7.20191017 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* initremote: Added --sameas option, allows for two special remotes that
access the same data store.
* Note that due to complications of the sameas feature, any external
special remotes that try to send SETSTATE or GETSTATE during INITREMOTE
or EXPORTSUPPORTED will now get back an ERROR. That would be a very
hackish thing for an external special remote to do, needing some kind
of hard-coded key value to be used, so probably nothing will be affected.
* forget --drop-dead: Remove several classes of git-annex log files
when they become empty, further reducing the size of the git-annex branch.
* OSX: Deal with symbolic link problem that caused git to not be included in
the git-annex.dmg.
* Fix build with persistent-2.10."""]]

[[!toggleable text="""
* git-lfs: The url provided to initremote/enableremote will now be
stored in the git-annex branch, allowing enableremote to be used without
an url. initremote --sameas can be used to add additional urls.
* git-lfs: When there's a git remote with an url that's known to be
used for git-lfs, automatically enable the special remote.
* sync, assistant: Pull and push from git-lfs remotes.
* Fix bug that made bare repos be treated as non-bare when --git-dir
was used.
* inprogress: Support --key.
* Sped up many git-annex commands that operate on many files, by
avoiding reserialization of keys.
find is 7% faster; whereis is 3% faster; and git-annex get when
all files are already present is 5% faster
* Stop displaying rsync progress, and use git-annex's own progress display
for local-to-local repo transfers.
* benchmark: Changed --databases to take a parameter specifiying the size
of the database to benchmark.
* benchmark --databases: Display size of the populated database.
* benchmark --databases: Improve the "addAssociatedFile (new)"
benchmark to really add new values, not overwriting old values.
* Windows: Fix handling of changes to time zone. (Used to work but was
broken in version 7.20181031.)"""]]
