It looks like the latest version of `git-annex` currently published on Hackage has a dependency on `feed` package without an upper bound specified. FYI, as per https://github.com/bergmark/feed/pull/20, a new version of `feed` will be released soon, incorporating non-backwards compatible changes to `feed` interface (`String` was replaced with `Text` throughout and `xml-types` types were adopted). Changes are largely mechanical but you'll probably want to ensure that future version of `git-annex` can build with newer `feed`. To prevent breakage for users, you may want to release a new version of `git-annex` with an upper bound specified now, then push a version compatible with `feed-1.0` after that comes out later.
