git-annex 5.20140817 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
[[!toggleable text="""
* New chunk= option to chunk files stored in special remotes.
Supported by: directory, S3, webdav, gcrypt, rsync, and all external
and hook special remotes.
* Partially transferred files are automatically resumed when using
chunked remotes!
* The old chunksize= option is deprecated. Do not use for new remotes.
* Legacy code for directory remotes using the old chunksize= option
will keep them working, but more slowly than before.
* webapp: Automatically install Konqueror integration scripts
to get and drop files.
* repair: Removing bad objects could leave fsck finding no more
unreachable objects, but some branches no longer accessible.
Fix this, including support for fixing up repositories that
were incompletely repaired before.
* Fix cost calculation for non-encrypted remotes.
* Display exception message when a transfer fails due to an exception.
* WebDAV: Sped up by avoiding making multiple http connections
when storing a file.
* WebDAV: Avoid buffering whole file in memory when uploading and
downloading.
* WebDAV: Dropped support for DAV before 1.0.
* testremote: New command to test uploads/downloads to a remote.
* Dropping an object from a bup special remote now deletes the git branch
for the object, although of course the object's content cannot be deleted
due to the nature of bup.
* unlock: Better error handling; continue past files that are not available
or cannot be unlocked due to disk space, and try all specified files.
* Windows: Now uses actual inode equivilants in new direct mode
repositories, for safer detection of eg, renaming of files with the same
size and mtime.
* direct: Fix ugly warning messages.
* WORM backend: When adding a file in a subdirectory, avoid including the
subdirectory in the key name.
* S3, Glacier, WebDAV: Fix bug that prevented accessing the creds
when the repository was configured with encryption=shared embedcreds=yes.
* direct: Avoid leaving file content in misctemp if interrupted.
* git-annex-shell sendkey: Don't fail if a remote asks for a key to be sent
that already has a transfer lock file indicating it's being sent to that
remote. The remote may have moved between networks, or reconnected.
* Switched from the old haskell HTTP library to http-conduit."""]]
