+ - Fix upstream's "Breaks: datalad ..." to use '<<' not '<' relation.
+ * Patch upstream's OPTIONS_GHC line out of Test.hs.
+
+ That line is not sufficient to prevent the package build running out
+ of memory on arm{el,hf} hosts. This seems to be because ghc memory
+ leaks while compiling the files that come before Test.hs. By the time
+ it reaches Test.hs, it will run out of memory no matter how low the
+ optimisation of Test.hs is set.
+
+ By contrast, reducing the optimisation of the whole build on
+ arm{hf,el}, as introduced in the previous upload, is sufficient to
+ avoid the memory leak breaking the build. Upstream's OPTIONS_GHC line
+ clashes with that, so patch out upstream's OPTIONS_GHC line and rely
+ on passing options to cabal-wrapper in d/rules.

+ This does not prevent the git repository from containing links
+ to insecure hashes, but it does prevent the content of such files
+ from being added to .git/annex/objects by any method.
+ * Tighten key parser to prevent SHA1 collision attacks generating
+ two keys that have the same SHA1. (Only done for keys that contain
+ a hash). This ensures that signed git commits of annexed files
+ will remain secure, as long as git-annex is using a secure hashing
+ backend.
+ * fsck: Warn about any files whose content is present, that don't
+ use secure hashes, when annex.securehashesonly is set.
+ * init: When annex.securehashesonly has been set with git-annex config,
+ copy that value to the annex.securehashesonly git config.
+ * Added --securehash option to match files using a secure hash function,
+ and corresponding securehash preferred content expression.
+ * sync, merge: Fail when the current branch has no commits yet, instead
+ of not merging in anything from remotes and appearing to succeed.
+ * Run ssh with -n whenever input is not being piped into it,
+ to avoid it consuming stdin that it shouldn't.
+ This fixes git-annex-checkpresentkey --batch remote,
+ which didn't output results for all keys passed into it. Other
+ git-annex commands that communicate with a remote over ssh may also
+ have been consuming stdin that they shouldn't have, which could have
+ impacted using them in eg, shell scripts.
+ * sync: Improve integration with receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead,
+ displaying error messages from the remote then it fails to update
+ its checked out branch.
+ * Added post-recieve hook, which makes updateInstead work with direct
+ mode and adjusted branches.
+ * init: Set up the post-receive hook.
+ * sync: When syncing with a local repository located on a crippled

+ * Run wget with -nv instead of -q, so it will display HTTP errors.
+ * Run curl with -S, so HTTP errors are displayed, even when

+ * Cryptographically secure hashes can be forced to be used in a
+ repository, by setting annex.securehashesonly.
+ This does not prevent the git repository from containing links
+ to insecure hashes, but it does prevent the content of such files
+ from being added to .git/annex/objects by any method.
+ * Tighten key parser to prevent SHA1 collision attacks generating
+ two keys that have the same SHA1. (Only done for keys that contain
+ a hash). This ensures that signed git commits of annexed files
+ will remain secure, as long as git-annex is using a secure hashing
+ backend.
+ * fsck: Warn about any files whose content is present, that don't
+ use secure hashes, when annex.securehashesonly is set.
+ * init: When annex.securehashesonly has been set with git-annex config,
+ copy that value to the annex.securehashesonly git config.
+ * Added --securehash option to match files using a secure hash function,
+ and corresponding securehash preferred content expression.
+ * sync, merge: Fail when the current branch has no commits yet, instead
+ of not merging in anything from remotes and appearing to succeed.
+ * Run ssh with -n whenever input is not being piped into it,
+ to avoid it consuming stdin that it shouldn't.
+ This fixes git-annex-checkpresentkey --batch remote,
+ which didn't output results for all keys passed into it. Other
+ git-annex commands that communicate with a remote over ssh may also
+ have been consuming stdin that they shouldn't have, which could have
+ impacted using them in eg, shell scripts.
+ * sync: Improve integration with receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead,
+ displaying error messages from the remote then it fails to update
+ its checked out branch.
+ * Added post-recieve hook, which makes updateInstead work with direct
+ mode and adjusted branches.
+ * init: Set up the post-receive hook.
+ * sync: When syncing with a local repository located on a crippled
+ filesystem, run the post-receive hook there, since it wouldn't get run
+ otherwise. This makes pushing to repos on FAT-formatted removable
+ drives update them when receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead.
+ * config group groupwanted numcopies schedule wanted required:
+ Avoid displaying extraneous messages about repository auto-init,
+ git-annex branch merging, etc, when being used to get information.
+ * adjust: Fix behavior when used in a repository that contains
+ submodules.
+ * Run wget with -nv instead of -q, so it will display HTTP errors.
+ * Run curl with -S, so HTTP errors are displayed, even when
+ it's otherwise silent.
+ * When downloading in --json or --quiet mode, use curl in preference
+ to wget, since curl is able to display only errors to stderr, unlike
+ wget.
+ * status: Pass --ignore-submodules=when option on to git status.
+ * config --set: As well as setting value in git-annex branch,
+ set local gitconfig. This is needed especially for
+ annex.securehashesonly, which is read only from local gitconfig and not
+ the git-annex branch.
+ * Removed support for building with the old cryptohash library.
+ Building with that library made git-annex not support SHA3; it's time
+ for that to always be supported in case SHA2 dominoes.
+ * git-annex.cabal: Make crypto-api a dependency even when built w/o
+ webapp and test suite.

+ This makes git-annex prefer transferring data from special
+ remotes when possible.
+ * Remove -j short option for --json-progress; that option was already
+ taken for --json.
+ * vicfg: Include the numcopies configuation.
+ * config: New command for storing configuration in the git-annex branch.
+ * annex.autocommit can be configured via git-annex config, to control
+ the default behavior in all clones of a repository.
+ * New annex.synccontent config setting, which can be set to true to make
+ git annex sync default to --content. This may become the default at
+ some point in the future. As well as being configuable by git config,
+ it can be configured by git-annex config to control the default
+ behavior in all clones of a repository.
+ * stack.yaml: Update to lts-7.18.
+ * Some optimisations to string splitting code.
+ * unused: When large files are checked right into git, avoid buffering
+ their contents in memory.
+ * unused: Improved memory use significantly when there are a lot
+ of differences between branches.
+ * Wormhole pairing will start to provide an appid to wormhole on
+ 2021-12-31. An appid can't be provided now because Debian stable is going
+ to ship a older version of git-annex that does not provide an appid.
+ Assumption is that by 2021-12-31, this version of git-annex will be
+ shipped in a Debian stable release. If that turns out to not be the
+ case, this change will need to be cherry-picked into the git-annex in
+ Debian stable, or its wormhole pairing will break.
+ * Fix build with aws 0.16. Thanks, aristidb.
+ * assistant: Make --autostart --foreground wait for the children it
+ starts. Before, the --foreground was ignored when autostarting.
+ * initremote: When a uuid= parameter is passed, use the specified
+ UUID for the new special remote, instead of generating a UUID.
+ This can be useful in some situations, eg when the same data can be
+ accessed via two different special remote backends.
+ * import: Changed how --deduplicate, --skip-duplicates, and
+ --clean-duplicates determine if a file is a duplicate.
+ Before, only content known to be present somewhere was considered
+ a duplicate. Now, any content that has been annexed before will be
+ considered a duplicate, even if all annexed copies of the data have
+ been lost.
+ Note that --clean-duplicates and --deduplicate still check
+ numcopies, so won't delete duplicate files unless there's an annexed
+ copy.
+ * import: --deduplicate and --skip-duplicates were implemented
+ inneficiently; they unncessarily hashed each file twice. They have
+ been improved to only hash once.
+ * import: Added --reinject-duplicates.
+ * Added git template directory to Linux standalone tarball and OSX
+ app bundle.

+ * XMPP support has been removed from the assistant in this release.
+ If your repositories used XMPP to keep in sync, that will no longer

+ A ssh server is one way, or use the new Tor pairing feature.
+ * p2p --pair makes it easy to pair repositories, over Tor, using
+ Magic Wormhole codes to find the other repository.
+ See http://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/peer_to_peer_network_with_tor/
+ * webapp: The "Share with a friend" and "Share with your other devices"
+ pages have been changed to pair repositories using Tor and Magic Wormhole.
+ * metadata --batch: Fix bug when conflicting metadata changes were
+ made in the same batch run.
+ * Pass annex.web-options to wget and curl after other options, so that
+ eg --no-show-progress can be set by the user to disable the default
+ --show-progress.
+ * Revert ServerAliveInterval change in 6.20161111, which caused problems
+ with too many old versions of ssh and unusual ssh configurations.
+ It should have not been needed anyway since ssh is supposted to
+ have TCPKeepAlive enabled by default.
+ * Make all --batch input, as well as fromkey and registerurl stdin
+ be processed without requiring it to be in the current encoding.
+ * p2p: --link no longer takes a remote name, instead the --name
+ option can be used.
+ * Linux standalone: Improve generation of locale definition files,
+ supporting locales such as en_GB.UTF-8.
+ * rekey --force: Incorrectly marked the new key's content as being
+ present in the local repo even when it was not.
+ * enable-tor: Put tor sockets in /var/lib/tor-annex/, rather
+ than in /etc/tor/hidden_service/.
+ * enable-tor: No longer needs to be run as root.
+ * enable-tor: When run as a regular user, also tests a connection back to

+ * Support all common locations of the torrc file.
+ * Always use filesystem encoding for all file and handle reads and

+ * Improve behavior when a just added http remote is not available

+ * Android: Icon refresh.
+ Thanks, freewheelinfranks.
+ * Added DIRHASH-LOWER to external special remote protocol.

+ * stack.yaml: Enable explicit-setup-deps.
+ * Windows: Fix several bugs in propigation of changes from the adjusted
+ branch back to the master branch.
+ * Windows: Fix an over-long temp directory name.
+ * map: Hide dead repositories that are not connected to the graph.
+ * map: Changed colors; red is used for untrusted repositories and grey
+ for dead.
+ * version: Display OS version and architecture too.
+ * Propigate GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE environment to external special

+ * Added annex.gnupg-decrypt-options and
+ remote.<name>.annex-gnupg-decrypt-options, which are passed to gpg
+ when it's decrypting data.
+ * fsck: When a key is not previously known in the location log,

+ * In the unusual configuration where annex.crippledfilesystem=true but
+ core.symlinks=true, store object contents in mixed case hash
+ directories so that symlinks will point to them.
+ * Added new encryption=sharedpubkey mode for special remotes.
+ This is useful for makking a special remote that anyone with a clone

+ * git 2.9.0 is going to prevent git merge from merging in unrelated

+ * Added v6 repository mode, but v5 is still the default for now.

+ For details, see http://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/unlocked_files/
+ * The upgrade to version 6 is not done fully automatically yet, because

+ * init: --version parameter added to control which supported repository

+ * init, upgrade: Configure .git/info/attributes to use git-annex

+ * assistant: In v6 mode, adds files in unlocked mode, so they can
+ continue to be modified.
+ * Added annex.thin setting, which makes unlocked files in v6 repositories
+ be hard linked to their content, instead of a copy. This saves disk
+ space but means any modification of an unlocked file will lose the local
+ (and possibly only) copy of the old version.
+ * Enable annex.thin by default on upgrade from direct mode to v6, since

+
+ * Fix a longstanding, but unlikely to occur bug, where dropping
+ a file from a remote could race with other drops of the same file,
+ and result in all copies of its content being lost.
+ * git-annex-shell: Added lockcontent command, to prevent dropping of
+ a key's content. This is necessary due to the above bugfix.
+ * In some cases, the above bugfix changes what git-annex allows you to
+ drop:
+ - When a file is present in several special remotes,
+ but not in any accessible git repositories, dropping it from one of
+ the special remotes will now fail. Instead, the file has to be
+ moved from one of the special remotes to the git repository, and can
+ then safely be dropped from the git repository.
+ - If a git remote has too old a version of git-annex-shell installed,
+ git-annex won't trust it to hold onto a copy of a file when dropping
+ that file from the local git repository.
+ * Changed drop ordering when using git annex sync --content or the
+ assistant, to drop from remotes first and from the local repo last.
+ This works better with the behavior changes to drop in many cases.
+ * Do verification of checksums of annex objects downloaded from remotes.
+ * When annex objects are received into git repositories from other git
+ repos, their checksums are verified then too.
+ * To get the old, faster, behavior of not verifying checksums, set
+ annex.verify=false, or remote.<name>.annex-verify=false.
+ * setkey, rekey: These commands also now verify that the provided file
+ matches the expected checksum of the key, unless annex.verify=false.
+ * reinject: Already verified content; this can now be disabled by
+ setting annex.verify=false.
+ * sync, merge, assistant: When git merge failed for a reason other
+ than a conflicted merge, such as a crippled filesystem not allowing
+ particular characters in filenames, git-annex would make a merge commit
+ that could omit such files or otherwise be bad. Fixed by aborting the

+
+ * Added new linux standalone "ancient" build to support kernels
+ like 2.6.32.
+ * info: Don't allow use in a non-git-annex repository, since it
+ uses the git-annex branch and would create it if it were missing.
+ * assistant: When updating ~/.ssh/config, preserve any symlinks.
+ * webapp: Remove the "disable remote" feature from the UI.
+ * S3: When built with aws-0.13.0, supports using more storage classes.
+ In particular, storageclass=STANDARD_IA to use Amazon's
+ new Infrequently Accessed storage, and storageclass=NEARLINE
+ to use Google's NearLine storage.
+ * Improve ~/.ssh/config modification code to not add trailing spaces
+ to lines it cannot parse.
+ * Fix a crash at direct mode merge time when .git/index doesn't exist
+ yet. Triggered by eg, git-annex sync --no-commit in a fresh clone of
+ a repository.
+ * status: Show added but not yet committed files.
+ * Added stack.yaml to support easy builds from source with stack.

+ * unused: Fix reversion in 5.20150727 that broke parsing of the
+ --unused-refspec option. Thanks, Øyvind A. Holm.
+ * Make full option parsing be done when not in a git repo, so --help
+ can be displayed for commands that require a git repo, etc.
+ * fsck: Work around bug in persistent that broke display of
+ problematically encoded filenames on stderr when using --incremental.
+ * When gpg.program is configured, it's used to get the command to run
+ for gpg. Useful on systems that have only a gpg2 command or want to
+ use it instead of the gpg command.
+ * Windows: Switched to using git for Windows, rather than msysgit.
+ Using msysgit with git-annex is no longer supported.
+ * Windows: Even when the user neglects to tell the git installer to
+ add git to PATH, git-annex will still work from within the git bash
+ shell, and the webapp can be used too.
+ * sync: Add --no-commit, --no-pull, --no-push options to turn off parts of
+ the sync process, as well as supporting --commit, --pull, --push, and
+ --no-content options to specify the (current) default behavior.
+ * annex.hardlink extended to also try to use hard links when copying from
+ the repository to a remote.
+ * Improve bash completion, so it completes names of remotes and backends
+ in appropriate places.
+ * Special remotes configured with autoenable=true will be automatically
+ enabled when git-annex init is run.
+ * Fix bug in combination of preferred and required content settings.
+ When one was set to the empty string and the other set to some expression,
+ this bug caused all files to be wanted, instead of only files matching

+ from resuming after the last successfully uploaded chunk.
+ * Switched option parsing to use optparse-applicative. This was a very large
+ and invasive change, and may have caused some minor behavior changes to

+ * importfeed: Avoid downloading a redundant item from a feed whose
+ permalink has been seen before, even when the url has changed.
+ * importfeed: Always store itemid in metadata; before this was only
+ done when annex.genmetadata was set.
+ * Relax debian package dependencies to git >= 1:1.8.1 rather

+ duplicate uploads to the same glacier repository by `git annex copy`.
+ * Direct mode: No longer temporarily remove write permission bit of files
+ when adding them.
+ * sync: Better support for bare git remotes. Now pushes directly to the

+ * fsck --from: Fscking a remote is now supported. It's done by retrieving
+ the contents of the specified files from the remote, and checking them,

+ * Ssh connection caching is now enabled automatically by git-annex.
+ Only one ssh connection is made to each host per git-annex run, which
+ can speed some things up a lot, as well as avoiding repeated password
+ prompts. Concurrent git-annex processes also share ssh connections.
+ Cached ssh connections are shut down when git-annex exits.
+ * To disable the ssh caching (if for example you have your own broader
+ ssh caching configuration), set annex.sshcaching=false.
