+## Version 1.7
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+### Changes
|
|
|
+- Git annex v7 mode: With this version, new repositories and local clones are initialised in git-annex v7 mode. This brings several changes in the behaviour of file locking:
|
|
|
+ - Files are added **unlocked** by default.
|
|
|
+ - Locking a file is a persistent status change that can be committed to the repository and will affect other clones.
|
|
|
+ - **Locked** files are not usable on Windows (not even for reading) and need to be unlocked.
|
|
|
+ - If no locking or unlocking is performed, the behaviour is is identical across all platforms.
|
|
|
+- New command: `gin sync`
|
|
|
+ - Synchronises changes bidirectionally between remote repositories and the local clone.
|
|
|
+ - Content can be synchronised at the same time with the `--content` flag.
|
|
|
+ - Using the `--content` flag will download **all** data in the repository.
|
|
|
+- `gin version --copy-to` behaviour changes:
|
|
|
+ - Files can now be checked out from older versions to any location, i.e., the destination directory does not need to be under the repository root.
|
|
|
+ - Checked out files (the old versions) are not added to the repository.
|
|
|
+ - Annexed content of checked out files is automatically downloaded.
|
|
|
+- Custom commit messages: Users can now specify a custom commit message when performing a `gin commit` by specifying the `--message` flag (`-m` for short).
|
|
|
+- Better handling of merge conflicts.
|
|
|
+- `gin ls` file listings are colour coded. Synced files are green, pointer files without content are cyan, modified files are yellow/orange, removed files are red.
|
|
|
+- `gin ls` prints a summary with file counts for each status at the bottom of the output.
|
|
|
+- JSON output has been added (`--json` flag) to the `info`, `keys`, `servers`, and `remotes` commands.
|
|
|
+- A message is always printed when there is "Nothing to do".
|
|
|
+- Output is more consistent across all file operations.
|
|
|
+
|
|
