git-annex (4.20131002) unstable; urgency=low The layout of gcrypt repositories has changed, and if you created one you must manually upgrade it. See /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades/gcrypt.html -- Joey Hess Tue, 24 Sep 2013 13:55:23 -0400 git-annex (3.20120123) unstable; urgency=low There was a bug in the handling of directory special remotes that could cause partial file contents to be stored in them. If you use a directory special remote, you should fsck it, to avoid potential data loss. Example: git annex fsck --from mydirectory -- Joey Hess Thu, 19 Jan 2012 15:24:23 -0400 git-annex (3.20110624) experimental; urgency=low There has been another change to the git-annex data store. Use `git annex upgrade` to migrate your repositories to the new layout. See or /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html The significant change this time is that the .git-annex/ directory is gone; instead there is a git-annex branch that is automatically maintained by git-annex, and encapsulates all its state nicely out of your way. You should make sure you include the git-annex branch when git pushing and pulling. -- Joey Hess Tue, 21 Jun 2011 20:18:00 -0400 git-annex (0.20110316) experimental; urgency=low This version reorganises the layout of git-annex's files in your repository. There is an upgrade process to convert a repository from the old git-annex to this version. See or /usr/share/doc/git-annex/html/upgrades.html -- Joey Hess Wed, 16 Mar 2011 15:49:15 -0400
