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.

I tried various ways to install git-annex on my [TonidoPlug](http://www.tonidoplug.com/).
System Info:
root@TonidoPlug2:~# uname -a
Linux TonidoPlug2 2.6.31.8-topkick1281p2-001-004-20101214 #1 Thu Jun 16 10:06:20 CST 2011 armv5tel GNU/Linux
`apt-get` didn't work.
root@TonidoPlug2:~# apt-get install git-annex

E: Unable to locate package git-annex
The Linux standalone installation results in an error message like this, when calling `git-annex` (or `git annex`)
~$ git-annex.linux/git-annex
/home/gitolite/git-annex.linux/bin/git-annex: 1: Syntax error: \")\" unexpected
(git-annex.linux/bin/git-annex is a binary file and works fine on other distros)
When installing with cabal, I get the error message (tried as root and gitolite user)
~$ cabal install git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin -f\"-assistant -webapp -webdav -pairing -xmpp -dns\"
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: cannot configure git-annex-4.20130802. It requires base >=4.5 && <4.8
For the dependency on base >=4.5 && <4.8 there are these packages:
base-4.5.0.0, base-4.5.1.0, base-4.6.0.0 and base-4.6.0.1. However none of
them are available.
base-4.5.0.0 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any
base-4.5.1.0 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any
base-4.6.0.0 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any
base-4.6.0.1 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks for providing git-annex. I started cleaning up my backups with it yesterday and really like it.
