git-annex (3.20120119) unstable; urgency=low
There was a bug in the handling of directory special remotes that
could cause partial file contents to be stored in them. If you use
a directory special remote, you should fsck it, to avoid potential
data loss.
Example: git annex fsck --from mydirectory

git-annex (3.20110624) experimental; urgency=low
There has been another change to the git-annex data store.
Use `git annex upgrade` to migrate your repositories to the new
layout. See <http://git-annex.branchable.com/upgrades/> or
/usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html
The significant change this time is that the .git-annex/ directory
is gone; instead there is a git-annex branch that is automatically
maintained by git-annex, and encapsulates all its state nicely out
of your way.
You should make sure you include the git-annex branch when
git pushing and pulling.

git-annex (0.20110316) experimental; urgency=low
This version reorganises the layout of git-annex's files in your repository.
There is an upgrade process to convert a repository from the old git-annex
to this version. See <http://git-annex.branchable.com/upgrades/> or
