* unannex, uninit: Avoid committing after every file is unannexed, for massive speedup. * --notify-finish switch will cause desktop notifications after each file upload/download/drop completes (using the dbus Desktop Notifications Specification) * --notify-start switch will show desktop notifications when each file upload/download starts. * webapp: Automatically install Nautilus integration scripts to get and drop files. * tahoe: Pass -d parameter before subcommand; putting it after the subcommand no longer works with tahoe-lafs version 1.10. (Thanks, Alberto Berti) * forget --drop-dead: Avoid removing the dead remote from the trust.log, so that if git remotes for it still exist anywhere, git annex info will still know it's dead and not show it. * git-annex-shell: Make configlist automatically initialize a remote git repository, as long as a git-annex branch has been pushed to it, to simplify setup of remote git repositories, including via gitolite. * add --include-dotfiles: New option, perhaps useful for backups. * Version 5.20140227 broke creation of glacier repositories, not including the datacenter and vault in their configuration. This bug is fixed, but glacier repositories set up with the broken version of git-annex need to have the datacenter and vault set in order to be usable. This can be done using git annex enableremote to add the missing settings. For details, see http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/problems_with_glacier/ * Added required content configuration. * assistant: Improve ssh authorized keys line generated in local pairing or for a remote ssh server to set environment variables in an alternative way that works with the non-POSIX fish shell, as well as POSIX shells. # imported from the archive

The big news: Important behavior change in `git annex dropunused`. Now it
|
|
checks, just like `git annex drop`, that it's not dropping the last copy of
|
|
the file. So to lose data, you have to use `--force`. This continues the
|
|
recent theme of making git-annex hold on more tenaciously to old data, and
|
|
AFAIK it was the last place data could be removed without `--force`.
|
|
|
|
Also a nice little fix to `git annex unused` so it doesn't identify
|
|
temporary files as unused if they're being used to download a file.
|
|
Fixing it was easy thanks to all the transfer logs and locking
|
|
infrastucture built for the assistant.
|
|
|
|
Fixed a bug in the assistant where even though syncing to a network
|
|
remote was disabled, it would still sync with it every hour, or whenever
|
|
a network connection was detected.
|
|
|
|
Working on some direct mode scalability problems when thousands of the
|
|
identical files are added. Fixing this may involvie replacing the current
|
|
simple map files with something more scalable like a sqllite database.
|
|
|
|
While tracking that down, I also found a bug with adding a ton of files
|
|
in indirect mode, that could make the assistant stall.
|
|
Turned out to be a laziness problem. (Worst kind of Haskell bug.) Fixed.
