git-annex (5.20141125) unstable; urgency=medium


  * Remove fixup code for bad bare repositories created by
    versions 5.20131118 through 5.20131127. That fixup code would
    accidentially fire when --git-dir was incorrectly
    pointed at the working tree of a git-annex repository,
    possibly resulting in data loss. Closes: #768093
  * Windows: Fix crash when user.name is not set in git config.

git-annex (5.20141024) unstable; urgency=medium


  * vicfg: Deleting configurations now resets to the default, where
    before it has no effect.
  * Remove hurd stuff from cabal file, since hackage currently rejects
    it, and the test suite fails on hurd.
  * initremote: Don't allow creating a special remote that has the same
    name as an existing git remote.
  * Windows: Use haskell setenv library to clean up several ugly workarounds
    for inability to manipulate the environment on windows. This includes
    making git-annex not re-exec itself on start on windows, and making the
    test suite on Windows run tests without forking.
  * glacier: Fix pipe setup when calling glacier-cli to retrieve an object.
  * info: When run on a single annexed file, displays some info about the 
    file, including its key and size.
  * info: When passed the name or uuid of a remote, displays info about that
    remote. Remotes that support encryption, chunking, or embedded
    creds will include that in their info.
  * enableremote: When the remote has creds, update the local creds cache
    file. Before, the old version of the creds could be left there, and
    would continue to be used.

  * Adjust cabal file to support building w/o assistant on the hurd.
  * Support building with yesod 1.4.
  * S3: Fix embedcreds=yes handling for the Internet Archive.
  * map: Handle .git prefixed remote repos. Closes: #614759
  * repair: Prevent auto gc from happening when fetching from a remote.

git-annex (5.20140717) unstable; urgency=high


  * Fix minor FD leak in journal code. Closes: #754608
  * direct: Fix handling of case where a work tree subdirectory cannot
    be written to due to permissions.
  * migrate: Avoid re-checksumming when migrating from hashE to hash backend.
  * uninit: Avoid failing final removal in some direct mode repositories
    due to file modes.
  * S3: Deal with AWS ACL configurations that do not allow creating or
    checking the location of a bucket, but only reading and writing content to
    it.
  * resolvemerge: New plumbing command that runs the automatic merge conflict
    resolver.
  * Deal with change in git 2.0 that made indirect mode merge conflict
    resolution leave behind old files.
  * sync: Fix git sync with local git remotes even when they don't have an
    annex.uuid set. (The assistant already did so.)
  * Set gcrypt-publish-participants when setting up a gcrypt repository,
    to avoid unncessary passphrase prompts.
    This is a security/usability tradeoff. To avoid exposing the gpg key
    ids who can decrypt the repository, users can unset
    gcrypt-publish-participants.
  * Install nautilus hooks even when ~/.local/share/nautilus/ does not yet
    exist, since it is not automatically created for Gnome 3 users.
  * Windows: Move .vbs files out of git\bin, to avoid that being in the
    PATH, which caused some weird breakage. (Thanks, divB)
  * Windows: Fix locking issue that prevented the webapp starting
    (since 5.20140707).

git-annex (5.20140709) unstable; urgency=medium


  * Fix race in direct mode merge code that could cause all files in the
    repository to be removed. It should be able to recover repositories
    experiencing this bug without data loss. See:
    http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/bad_merge_commit_deleting_all_files/
  * Fix git version that supported --no-gpg-sign.
  * Fix bug in automatic merge conflict resolution, when one side is an
    annexed symlink, and the other side is a non-annexed symlink.
  * Really fix bug that caused the assistant to make many unncessary
    empty merge commits.

  * assistant: Fix bug, introduced in last release, that caused the assistant
    to make many unncessary empty merge commits.
  * assistant: Fix one-way assistant->assistant sync in direct mode.
  * Fix bug in annex.queuesize calculation that caused much more
    queue flushing than necessary.
  * importfeed: When annex.genmetadata is set, metadata from the feed
    is added to files that are imported from it.
  * Support users who have set commit.gpgsign, by disabling gpg signatures
    for git-annex branch commits and commits made by the assistant.
  * Fix memory leak when committing millions of changes to the git-annex
    branch, eg after git-annex add has run on 2 million files in one go.
  * Support building with bloomfilter 2.0.0.
  * Run standalone install process when the assistant is started
    (was only being run when the webapp was opened).
  * Android: patch git to avoid fchmod, which fails on /sdcard.
  * Windows: Got rid of that pesky DOS box when starting the webapp.
  * Windows: Added Startup menu item so assistant starts automatically
    on login.
  * Windows: Fix opening file browser from webapp when repo is in a
    directory with spaces.
  * Windows: Assistant now logs to daemon.log.

  * Ignore setsid failures.
  * Avoid leaving behind .tmp files when failing in some cases, including
    importing files to a disk that is full.
  * Avoid bad commits after interrupted direct mode sync (or merge).
  * Fix build with wai 0.3.0.
  * Deal with FAT's low resolution timestamps, which in combination with
    Linux's caching of higher res timestamps while a FAT is mounted, caused
    direct mode repositories on FAT to seem to have modified files after
    they were unmounted and remounted.
  * Windows: Fix opening webapp when repository is in a directory with
    spaces in the path.
  * Detect when Windows has lost its mind in a timezone change, and
    automatically apply a delta to the timestamps it returns, to get back to
    sane values.

  * webapp: When adding a new local repository, fix bug that caused its
    group and preferred content to be set in the current repository,
    even when not combining.
  * webapp: Avoid stomping on existing description, group and
    preferred content settings when enabling or combining with
    an already existing remote.
  * assistant: Make sanity checker tmp dir cleanup code more robust.
  * unused: Avoid checking view branches for unused files.
  * webapp: Include ssh port in mangled hostname.
  * Windows: Fix bug introduced in last release that caused files
    in the git-annex branch to have lines teminated with \r.
  * Windows: Fix retrieving of files from local bare git repositories.

  * Fix encoding of data written to git-annex branch. Avoid truncating
    unicode characters to 8 bits. Allow any encoding to be used, as with
    filenames (but utf8 is the sane choice). Affects metadata and repository
    descriptions, and preferred content expressions.
  * assistant: When there are multiple remotes giving different ways
    to access the same repository, honor remote cost settings and use
    the cheapest available.
  * webapp: More robust startup when annex directory is not a git repo.
  * initremote/enableremote: Basic support for using with regular git remotes;
    initremote stores the location of an already existing git remote,
    and enableremote setups up a remote using its stored location.
  * webapp: Support for enabling known git repositories on ssh servers.
    The repository must have been added using initremote.
  * webapp: When setting up a ssh remote, record it using initremote,
    so that it can be easily enabled elsewhere.
  * webapp: When setting up a ssh remote, if the user inputs ~/foo,
    normalize that to foo, since it's in the home directory by default.
  * Use exceptions in place of deprecated MonadCatchIO-transformers
    Thanks, Ben Gamari.
  * android: Run busybox install with -s, since some versions of Android
    prohibit making hard links.
  * Android webapp: Fix EvilSplicer bugs that mangled the css files,
    preventing icons from displaying, and also slightly broke the js files.

  * webapp: Switched to bootstrap 3.
    Thanks, Sören Brunk.
  * Standalone builds now check gpg signatures before upgrading.
  * Simplified repository description line format. The remote name,
    if any, is always in square brackets after the description.
  * assistant: Clean up stale tmp files on startup.
  * webapp: Better ssh password prompting.
  * Depend on git-remote-gcrypt 0.20130908-6. Older versions
    fail when the assistant is run with no controlling tty.
  * Added ddar special remote.
    Thanks, Robie Basak.
  * webapp: Fixed drag and drop to reorder the list of remotes.
  * group: When no groups are specified to set, lists the current groups
    of a repository.
  * Add remote.$name.annex-shell configuration.
    Thanks, Fraser Tweedale 
  * Support symlinking git-annex and git-annex-shell
    from the Linux standalone bundle into PATH.
    Thanks, jlebar.

git-annex (5.20140421) unstable; urgency=medium


  * assistant: Now detects immediately when other repositories push
    changes to a ssh remote, and pulls.
    ** XMPP is no longer needed in this configuration! **
    This requires the remote server have git-annex-shell with
    notifychanges support (>= 5.20140405)
  * webapp: Show a network signal icon next to ssh and xmpp remotes that
    it's currently connected with.
  * webapp: Rework xmpp nudge to prompt for either xmpp or a ssh remote 
    to be set up.
  * sync, assistant, remotedaemon: Use ssh connection caching for git pushes
    and pulls.
  * remotedaemon: When network connection is lost, close all cached ssh
    connections.
  * Improve handling of monthly/yearly scheduling.
  * Avoid depending on shakespeare except for when building the webapp.
  * uninit: Avoid making unncessary copies of files.
  * info: Allow use in a repository where annex.uuid is not set.
  * reinit: New command that can initialize a new repository using
    the configuration of a previously known repository.
    Useful if a repository got deleted and you want
    to clone it back the way it was.
  * drop --from: When local repository is untrusted, its copy of a file does
    not count.
  * Bring back rsync -p, but only when git-annex is running on a non-crippled
    file system. This is a better approach to fix #700282 while not
    unncessarily losing file permissions on non-crippled systems.
  * webapp: Start even if the current directory is listed in
    ~/.config/git-annex/autostart but no longer has a git repository in it.
  * findref: New command, like find but shows files in a specified git ref.
  * webapp: Fix UI for removing XMPP connection.
  * When init detects that git is not configured to commit, and sets
    user.email to work around the problem, also make it set user.name.
  * webapp: Support using git-annex on a remote server, which was installed
    from the standalone tarball or OSX app, and so does not have
    git-annex in PATH (and may also not have git or rsync in PATH).
  * standalone tarball, OSX app: Install a ~/.ssh/git-annex-wrapper, which
    can be used to run git-annex, git, rsync, etc.

  * 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.

  * Fix zombie leak and general inneficiency when copying files to a
    local git repo.
  * Fix ssh connection caching stop method to work with openssh 6.5p1,
    which broke the old method.
  * webapp: Added a "Sync now" item to each repository's menu.
  * webapp: Use securemem for constant time auth token comparisons.
  * copy --fast --to remote: Avoid printing anything for files that
    are already believed to be present on the remote.
  * Commands that allow specifying which repository to act on using
    the repository's description will now fail when multiple repositories
    match, rather than picking a repository at random.
    (So will --in=)
  * Better workaround for problem umasks when eg, setting up ssh keys.
  * "standard" can now be used as a first-class keyword in preferred content
    expressions. For example "standard or (include=otherdir/*)"
  * groupwanted can be used in preferred content expressions.
  * vicfg: Allows editing preferred content expressions for groups.
  * Improve behavior when unable to parse a preferred content expression
    (thanks, ion).
  * metadata: Add --get
  * metadata: Support --key option (and some other ones like --all)
  * For each metadata field, there's now an automatically maintained
    "$field-lastchanged" that gives the date of the last change to that
    field. Also the "lastchanged" field for the date of the last change
    to any of a file's metadata.
  * unused: In direct mode, files that are deleted from the work tree
    and so have no content present are no longer incorrectly detected as
    unused.
  * Avoid encoding errors when using the unused log file.
  * map: Fix crash when one of the remotes of a repo is a local directory
    that does not exist, or is not a git repo.
  * repair: Improve memory usage when git fsck finds a great many broken
    objects.
  * Windows: Fix some filename encoding bugs.
  * rsync special remote: Fix slashes when used on Windows.

  * sync: Fix bug in direct mode that caused a file that was not
    checked into git to be deleted when there was a conflicting
    merge with a remote.
  * webapp: Now supports HTTPS.
  * webapp: No longer supports a port specified after --listen, since
    it was buggy, and that use case is better supported by setting up HTTPS.
  * annex.listen can be configured, instead of using --listen
  * annex.startupscan can be set to false to disable the assistant's startup
    scan.
  * Probe for quvi version at run time.
  * webapp: Filter out from Switch Repository list any
    repositories listed in autostart file that don't have a
    git directory anymore. (Or are bare)
  * webapp: Refuse to start in a bare git repository.
  * assistant --autostart: Refuse to start in a bare git repository.
  * webapp: Don't list the public repository group when editing a
    git repository; it only makes sense for special remotes.
  * view, vfilter: Add support for filtering tags and values out of a view,
    using !tag and field!=value.
  * vadd: Allow listing multiple desired values for a field.
  * view: Refuse to enter a view when no branch is currently checked out.
  * metadata: To only set a field when it's not already got a value, use
    -s field?=value
  * Run .git/hooks/pre-commit-annex whenever a commit is made.
  * sync: Automatically resolve merge conflict between and annexed file
    and a regular git file.
  * glacier: Pass --region to glacier checkpresent.
  * webdav: When built with a new enough haskell DAV (0.6), disable
    the http response timeout, which was only 5 seconds.
  * webapp: Include no-pty in ssh authorized_keys lines.
  * assistant: Smarter log file rotation, which takes free disk space
    into account.

  * sync --content: New option that makes the content of annexed files be
    transferred. Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured
    preferred content expressions.
  * Remove --json option from commands not supporting it.
  * status: Support --json.
  * list: Fix specifying of files to list.
  * Allow --all to be mixed with matching options like --copies and --in
    (but not --include and --exclude).
  * numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all
    clones of a repository.
  * The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies
    command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies
    git configs will be ignored.
  * assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies.
  * Add lackingcopies, approxlackingcopies, and unused to
    preferred content expressions.
  * Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories
    now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies.
  * Client, transfer, and source repositories now do not want to retain
    unused file contents.
  * assistant: Checks daily for unused file contents, and when possible
    moves them to a repository (such as a backup repository) that
    wants to retain them.
  * assistant: annex.expireunused can be configured to cause unused
    file contents to be deleted after some period of time.
  * webapp: Nudge user to see if they want to expire old unused file
    contents when a lot of them seem to be piling up in the repository.
  * repair: Check git version at run time.
  * assistant: Run the periodic git gc in batch mode.
  * added annex.secure-erase-command config option.
  * Optimise non-bare http remotes; no longer does a 404 to the wrong
    url every time before trying the right url. Needs annex-bare to be
    set to false, which is done when initially probing the uuid of a
    http remote.
  * webapp: After upgrading a git repository to git-annex, fix
    bug that made it temporarily not be synced with.
  * whereis: Support --all.
  * All commands that support --all also support a --key option,
    which limits them to acting on a single key.

  * Added tahoe special remote.
  * external special remote protocol: Added GETGITDIR, and GETAVAILABILITY.
  * Refuse to build with git older than 1.7.1.1, which is needed for
    git checkout -B
  * map: Fix display of v5 direct mode repos.
  * repair: Support old git versions from before git fsck --no-dangling was
    implemented.
  * Fix a long-standing bug that could cause the wrong index file to be used
    when committing to the git-annex branch, if GIT_INDEX_FILE is set in the
    environment. This typically resulted in git-annex branch log files being
    committed to the master branch and later showing up in the work tree.
    (These log files can be safely removed.)
  * assistant: Detect if .git/annex/index is corrupt at startup, and
    recover.
  * repair: Fix bug in packed refs file exploding code that caused a .gitrefs
    directory to be created instead of .git/refs
  * Fix FTBFS on mipsel and sparc due to test suite not being available
    on those architectures.
  * Android: Avoid passing --clobber to busybox wget.

    SETSTATE, GETSTATE, DEBUG.
  * Windows: Fix bug in direct mode merge code that could cause files
    in subdirectories to go missing.
  * Windows: Avoid eating stdin when running ssh to add a authorized key,
    since this is used for password prompting.
  * Avoid looping if long-running git cat-file or git hash-object crashes
    and keeps crashing when restarted.
  * Assistant: Remove stale MERGE_HEAD files in lockfile cleanup.
  * Remotes can now be made read-only, by setting remote.<name>.annex-readonly
  * wanted, schedule: Avoid printing "ok" after requested value.
  * assistant: Ensure that .ssh/config and .ssh/authorized_keys are not
    group or world writable when writing to those files, as that can make
    ssh refuse to use them, if it allows another user to write to them.
  * addurl, importfeed: Honor annex.diskreserve as long as the size of the
    url can be checked.
  * add: Fix rollback when disk is completely full.
  * assistant: Fixed several minor memory leaks that manifested when
    adding a large number of files.
  * assistant: Start a new git-annex transferkeys process
    after a network connection change, so that remotes that use a persistent
    network connection are restarted.
  * Adjust Debian build deps to match current state of sparc, mipsel.

  * Added new external special remote interface.
  * importfeed: Support youtube playlists.
  * Add tasty to build-depends, so that test suite builds again.
    (tasty was stuck in incoming.)
  * Fix typo in test suite.
  * Fix bug in Linux standalone build's shimming that broke git-annex-shell.
  * Include git-receive-pack, git-upload-pack, git, and git-shell wrappers
    in the Linux standalone build, and OSX app, so they will be available
    when it's added to PATH.
  * addurl, importfeed: Sanitize | and some other symbols and special
    characters.
  * Auto-upgrade v3 indirect repos to v5 with no changes.
    This also fixes a problem when a direct mode repo was somehow set to v3
    rather than v4, and so the automatic direct mode upgrade to v5 was not
    done.
  * Android: Avoid trying to use Android's own ionice, which does not
    allow specifying a command to run. Fixes transferring files to/from
    android and probably a few other things.

  * annex.version is now set to 5 for direct mode repositories.
    This upgrade is handled fully automatically, no need to run
    git annex upgrade
  * The "status" command has been renamed to "info", to allow
    "git annex status" to be used in direct mode repositories, now that
    "git status" won't work in them.
  * The -c option now not only modifies the git configuration seen by
    git-annex, but it is passed along to every git command git-annex runs.
  * watcher: Avoid loop when adding a file owned by someone else fails
    in indirect mode because its permissions cannot be modified.
  * webapp: Avoid encoding problems when displaying the daemon log file.
  * webapp: Improve UI around remote that have no annex.uuid set,

  * assistant: Notice on startup when the index file is corrupt, and
    auto-repair.
  * Fix direct mode merge bug when a direct mode file was deleted and replaced
    with a directory. An ordering problem caused the directory to not get
    created in this case.
    Thanks to Tim for the test case.
  * Direct mode .git/annex/objects directories are no longer left writable,

    without such a file, so files can still be retreived from them.
  * assistant: Automatically repair damanged git repository, if it can

  * assistant: Support repairing git remotes that are locally accessible
    (eg, on removable drives).
  * add: Fix reversion in 4.20130827 when adding unlocked files that have
    not yet been committed.
  * unannex: New, much slower, but more safe behavior: Copies files out of
    the annex. This avoids an unannex of one file breaking other files that
    link to the same content. Also, it means that the content
    remains in the annex using up space until cleaned up with 
    "git annex unused".
    (The behavior of unannex --fast has not changed; it still hard links
    to content in the annex. --fast was not made the default because it is
    potentially unsafe; editing such a hard linked file can unexpectedly
    change content stored in the annex.)

  * addurl --pathdepth: Fix failure when the pathdepth specified is deeper
    than the urls's path.
  * Windows: Look for .exe extension when searching for a command in path.
  * Pass -f to curl when downloading a file with it, so it propigates failure. 
  * Windows: Fix url to object when using a http remote.
  * webapp: Fix authorized_keys line added when setting up a rsync remote
    on a server that also supports git-annex, to not force running
    git-annex-shell.
  * OSX Mountain Lion: Fixed gpg bundled in dmg to not fail due to a missing
    gpg-agent.
  * Android: gpg is built without --enable-minimal, so it interoperates
    better with other gpg builds that may default to using other algorithms
    for encryption.
  * dropunused, addunused: Complain when asked to operate on a number that
    does not correspond to any unused key.
  * fsck: Don't claim to fix direct mode when run on a symlink whose content
    is not present.
  * Make --numcopies override annex.numcopies set in .gitattributes.
