git-annex 5.20140116 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
git-annex (5.20140116) unstable; urgency=medium
* 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.

- git-annex: manage files with git, without checking their contents into git
git-annex allows managing files with git, without checking the file
contents into git. While that may seem paradoxical, it is useful when
dealing with files larger than git can currently easily handle, whether due
to limitations in memory, time, or disk space.
.
Even without file content tracking, being able to manage files with git,
move files around and delete files with versioned directory trees, and use
branches and distributed clones, are all very handy reasons to use git. And
annexed files can co-exist in the same git repository with regularly
versioned files, which is convenient for maintaining documents, Makefiles,
etc that are associated with annexed files but that benefit from full
revision control.
