git-annex 8.20210428 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text=""" * New annex.private and remote.name.annex-private configs that can
prevent storing information about a repository and remotes in the
git-annex branch.
* initremote: Added --private option to set up a private special remote.
* importfeed: Made "checking known urls" phase run 12 times faster.
* Added --debugfilter (and annex.debugfilter)
* diffdriver: Support unlocked files.
* forget: Preserve currently exported trees, avoiding problems with
exporttree remotes in some unusual circumstances.
* fsck: When downloading content from a remote, if the content is able
to be verified during the transfer, skip checksumming it a second time.
* directory: When cp supports reflinks, use it.
* Avoid excess commits to the git-annex branch when stall detection is
enabled.
* git-annex-config: Allow setting annex.securehashesonly, which has
otherwise been supported since 2019, but was missing from the list of
allowed repo-global configs.
* init: Fix a crash when the repo's was cloned from a repo that had an
adjusted branch checked out, and the origin remote is not named "origin".
* Fix some bugs that made git-annex not see recently recorded status
information when configured with annex.alwayscommit=false.
* When mincopies is set to a larger value than numcopies, make sure that
mincopies is satisfied. Before, it assumed a sane configuration would
have numcopies larger or equal to mincopies. It's still a good idea
not to configure git-annex this way.
* Avoid more than 1 gpg password prompt at the same time, which
could happen occasionally before when concurrency is enabled.
* Fix build with persistent-2.12.0.1"""]]
