install git-annex from backports on wheezy #195

Closed gjost closed 8 years ago

gjost commented 8 years ago

Deb8 (jessie) installs git-annex v5, while Deb7 (wheezy) installs v3. Fine except that v5 silently, automatically, and unavoidably upgrades repos to v5 whenever it touches them, even when running commands like git annex info. Upgraded repos are not damaged but can longer be used with v3.

Let's ensure that we are using v5 everywhere.

The Makefile should detect the Debian version and install git and git-annex from backports on Deb7 machines.

seealso #189

Changes in 8aca1d6, will test on Deb7 and Deb8 VMs.

Reviewed release notes and other parts of git-annex site, don't see reports of backwards incompatibilities or problems. Will merge this into develop.
