Joey Hess 7189dfd77d git-annex (5.20131127) unstable; urgency=low
* webapp: Detect when upgrades are available, and upgrade if the user
    desires.
    (Only when git-annex is installed using the prebuilt binaries
    from git-annex upstream, not from eg Debian.)
  * assistant: Detect when the git-annex binary is modified or replaced,
    and either prompt the user to restart the program, or automatically
    restart it.
  * annex.autoupgrade configures both the above upgrade behaviors.
  * Added support for quvi 0.9. Slightly suboptimal due to limitations in its
    interface compared with the old version.
  * Bug fix: annex.version did not get set on automatic upgrade to v5 direct
    mode repo, so the upgrade was performed repeatedly, slowing commands down.
  * webapp: Fix bug that broke switching between local repositories
    that use the new guarded direct mode.
  * Android: Fix stripping of the git-annex binary.
  * Android: Make terminal app show git-annex version number.
  * Android: Re-enable XMPP support.
  * reinject: Allow to be used in direct mode.
  * Futher improvements to git repo repair. Has now been tested in tens
    of thousands of intentionally damaged repos, and successfully
    repaired them all.
  * Allow use of --unused in bare repository.

Spent too many hours last night tracking down a bug that caused the webapp
to hang when it got built with the new yesod 1.2 release. Much of that time
was spent figuring out that yesod 1.2 was causing the problem. It turned out to
be a stupid typo in my yesod compatability layer. `liftH = liftH` in
Haskell is an infinite loop, not the stack overflow you get in most
languages. ;)
Even though it's only been a week since the last release,
that was worth pushing a release out for, which I've just done.
This release is essentially all bug fixes (aside from the automatic
ionice and nicing of the daemon).
This website is now available over https. Perhaps more importantly, all the
links to download git-annex builds are https by default.
The [[success_stories|day_288__success_stories]] list is getting really
nice. Only way it could possibly be nicer is if you added your story! Hint. ;)
