-git-annex 6.20180926 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * [ Joey Hess ]
-   * Fixes a reversion in the last release that broke interoperation with
-     older versions of git-annex-shell.
-   * init: Improve generated post-receive hook, so it won't fail when
-     run on a system whose git-annex is too old to support git-annex post-receive
-   * init: Update the post-receive hook when re-run in an existing repository.
-   * S3: Fix url construction bug when the publicurl has been set to an url
-     that does not end with a slash.
-   * --debug shows urls accessed by git-annex, like it used to do when
-     git-annex used wget and curl.
-   * Fix support for filenames containing newlines when querying git
-     cat-file, though less efficiently than other filenames.
-     This should make git-annex fully support filenames containing newlines
-     as the rest of git's interface is used in newline-safe ways.
-   * Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for
-     supporting filenames containing newlines.
-   * Added annex.maxextensionlength for use cases where extensions longer
-     than 4 characters are needed.
-   * Added remote.name.annex-security-allow-unverified-downloads, a
-     per-remote setting for annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads.
-   * More FreeBSD build fixes.
- * [ Yaroslav Halchenko ]
-   * debian/control
-     + add netbase to Depends: since required for basic tcp interactions
-       (see e.g. https://github.com/nipy/heudiconv/issues/260)"""]]

+git-annex 7.20181121 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+   * git-annex-shell: Fix hang when transferring the same objects to two
+     different clients at the same time. (Or when annex.pidlock is used,
+     two different objects.)
+   * Fixed some other potential hangs in the P2P protocol.
+   * Fix bash completion of "git annex" to propertly handle files with
+     spaces and other problem characters. (Completion of "git-annex"
+     already did.)
+   * Fix resume of download of url when the whole file content is
+     already actually downloaded.
+   * When an export conflict prevents accessing a special remote,
+     be clearer about what the problem is and how to resolve it.
+   * export, sync --content: Avoid unnecessarily trying to upload files
+     to an exporttree remote that already contains the files.
+   * smudge: When passed a file located outside the working tree, eg by git
+     diff, avoid erroring out.
+   * drop -J: Avoid processing the same key twice at the same time when
+     multiple annexed files use it.
+   * When a command is operating on multiple files and there's an error
+     with one, try harder to continue to the rest. (As was already done
+     for many types of errors including IO errors.)
+   * Fixed a crash when using -J with ssh password prompts in
+     --quiet/--json mode.
+     Thanks to Yaroslav Halchenko and the DataLad&ReproNim team for
+     helping to track down this bug.
+   * Remove esqueleto dependency to allow upgrading other dependencies to
+     newer versions.
+     Thanks Sean Parsons.
+   * Fix build with persistent-sqlite older than 2.6.3.
+   * Updated stack.yaml to lts-12.19; added stack-lts-9.9.yaml
+     to support old versions of stack."""]]
