-                <p>SparkleShare 2.0 is a clean break and will be incompatible with the 1.x series. Repositories added using 1.0 will likely not work and will have to be re-synced to take advantage of 2.0 features (1.x and 2.x clients will still be able to sync to the same repository without problems).</p>

-                    <li>Support for Git LFS managed repositories</li>
-                    <li>Projects are now grouped by host or organisation</li>
-                    <li>In encrypted repositories, name and email metadata is now also encrypted</li>
-                    <li>Change notification preferences from GNOME System Settings</li>
-                    <li>New GitLab preset</li>
