-body:
-- type: markdown

-    value: >
-      **Thank you for wanting to suggest a feature for ansible-core!**
-
-
-
-      💡
-      Before you go ahead with your request, please first consider if it
-      would be useful for majority of the ansible-core users. As a
-      general rule of thumb, any feature that is only of interest to a
-      small sub group should be [implemented in a third-party Ansible
-      Collection][contribute to collections] or maybe even just your
-      project alone. Be mindful of the fact that the essential
-      ansible-core features have a broad impact.
-
-      If unsure, consider filing a [new proposal] instead outlining your
-      use-cases, the research and implementation considerations. Then,
-      start a discussion on one of the public [IRC meetings] we have just
-      for this.

CODING_GUIDELINES.md

+Coding Guidelines
+=================
+
+Hi!  Thanks for interest in contributing to Ansible.
+
+Here are some guidelines for contributing code.  The purpose of this document are to establish what we're looking for in code contributions, and to make sure
+new contributions know some of the conventions that we've been using.
+
+We don't think much of this should be too strange to readers familiar with contributing to Python projects, though it helps if we all get on the same page.
+
+Language
+========
+
+  * While not all components of Ansible must be in Python, core contributions to the Ansible repo must be written in Python.  This is to maximize the ability of everyone to contribute.
+  * If you want to write non-Python ansible modules or inventory scripts, that's fine, but they are not going to get merged in most likely.  Sorry!!  
+
+PEP8 and basic style checks
+===========================
+
+  * PEP8 is a great Python style guide, which you should read.
+  * PEP8 must not be strictly followed in all aspects, but most of it is good advice
+  * In particular, we don't really care about line lengths.  Buy a bigger monitor!
+  * To run checks for things we care about, run "make pep8"
+  * Similarly, additional checks can be made with "make pyflakes"
+  * There is no need to submit code changes for pep8 and pyflake fixes, as these break attribution history.  Project leadership will make these periodically.
+  * Do not submit pull requests that simply adjust whitespace in the code
+
+Testing
+=======
+
+  * Much of ansible's testing needs are in integration, not unit tests.  Add module tests there.
+  * That being said, there are unit tests too!
+  * Code written must absolutely pass tests (i.e. "make tests")
+  * You should anticipate any error paths in your code and test down those error paths.
+  * Additions to tests for core code is welcome, but not always possible.  Be sure things are at least well tested manually in that case.
+
+Whitespace
+==========
+
+  * Four space indent is strictly required
+  * Include meaningful whitespace between lines of code
+
+Shebang Lines
+=============
+ 
+  * /usr/bin/scripts should start with '/usr/bin/env python'
+  * module code should still use '/usr/bin/python' as this is replaced automatically by 'ansible_python_interpreter', see the FAQ in the docs for more info.
+
+Comments
+========
+
+  * Readability is one of the most important goals for this project
+  * Comment any non-trivial code where someone might not know why you are doing something in a particular way
+  * Though if something should be commented, that's often a sign someone should write a function
+  * All new functions must have a basic docstring comment
+  * Commenting above a line is preferable to commenting at the end of a line
+
+Classes
+=======
+
+  * With the exception of module code (where inline is better), it is desirable to see classes in their own files.
+  * Classes should generally not cause side effects as soon as they are instantiated, move meaningful behavior to methods rather than constructors.
+ 
+Functions and Methods
+=====================
+
+  * In general, functions should not be 'too long' and should describe a meaningful amount of work
+  * When code gets too nested, that's usually the sign the loop body could benefit from being a function
+  * Parts of our existing code are not the best examples of this at times. 
+  * Functions should have names that describe what they do, along with docstrings
+  * Functions should be named with_underscores
+  * "Don't repeat yourself" is generally a good philosophy
+
+Variables
+=========
+
+  * Use descriptive variable names instead of variables like 'x', unless x is a obvious loop index
+  * Ansible python code uses identifiers like 'ClassesLikeThis and variables_like_this
+  * Module parameters should also use_underscores and not runtogether
+
+Module Security
+===============
+
+  * Modules must take steps to avoid passing user input from the shell and always check return codes
+  * always use module.run_command instead of subprocess or Popen or os.system -- this is mandatory
+  * if you use need the shell you must pass use_unsafe_shell=True to module.run_command
+  * if you do not need the shell, avoid using the shell
+  * any variables that can come from the user input with use_unsafe_shell=True must be wrapped by pipes.quote(x)
+  * downloads of https:// resource urls must import module_utils.urls and use the fetch_url method
+
+Misc Preferences
+================
+
+Use the dict constructor where possible when allocating dictionaries:
+
+    # not this:
+    foo = {
+       'a' : 12,
+       'b' : 34
+    }
+
+    # this:
+    foo = dict(
+       a = 12,
+       b = 34
+    )
+
+Line up variables
+
+    # not this
+    a  = 12
+    foosball = 34
+    xyz = 'dog'
+
+    # this
+    a        = 12
+    foosball = 34
+    xyz      = 'dog'
+
+Don't use line continuations:
+
+    # no
+    if (this_is_a_very_long_line and foo and /
+       i_am_going_to_continue_it):
+          bar()
+
+    # better:
+    if (this_is_a_very_long_line and foo and i_am_going_to_continue_it):
+       bar()
+
+Spacing:
+
+    # no
+    x=[1,2,3]
+
+    # no
+    x = [1,2,3]
+
+    # yes
+    x = [ 1, 2, 3 ]
+
+Spacing continued:
+
+    # no
+    x=foo(12)
+
+    # no
+    x = foo( 12 )
+
+    # yes
+    x = foo(12)
+
+Licenses
+========
+
+Every file should have a license header, including the copyright of the original author.  Major additions to the module are allowed
+to add an additional copyright line, and this is especially true of rewrites, but original authorship copyright messages should be preserved.
+
+All contributions to the core repo should preserve original licenses and new contributions must include the GPLv3 header.
+
+Module Documentation
+====================
+
+All module pull requests must include a DOCUMENTATION docstring (YAML format, 
+see other modules for examples) as well as an EXAMPLES docstring, which is free form.  
+
+When adding new modules, any new parameter must have a "version_added" attribute.  
+When submitting a new module, the module should have a "version_added" attribute in the 
+pull request as well, set to the current development version.
+
+Be sure to check grammar and spelling.
+
+It's frequently the case that modules get submitted with YAML that isn't valid, 
+so you can run "make webdocs" from the checkout to preview your module's documentation. 
+If it fails to build, take a look at your DOCUMENTATION string 
+or you might have a Python syntax error in there too.
+
+Python Imports
+==============
+
+To make it clear what a module is importing, imports should not be sprinkled throughout the code. 
+
+Python Imports should happen at the top of the file, exempting code from module_utils.
+
+When a conditional runtime import is required, do so something like this instead:
+
+    HAS_FOO = False
+    try:
+       import foo
+       HAS_FOO = True
+    except ImportError:
+       pass
+
+    ...
+
+    if not HAS_FOO:
+       raise Exception("the foo library is required")
+
+This makes it clear what optional dependencies are but allows this to be deferred until runtime.   In the case of module code, the raising of the Exception will be replaced
+with a "module.exit_json" call.
+
+Exceptions
+==========
+
+In the main body of the code, use typed exceptions where possible:
+    
+    # not this
+    raise Exception("panic!")
+
+    # this
+    from ansible import errors
+    ...
+    raise errors.AnsibleError("panic!")
+
+Similarly, exception checking should be fine grained:
+
+    # not this
+    try:
+       foo()
+    except:
+       bar()
+
+    # but this
+    try:
+       foo()
+    except SomeTypedException:
+       bar()
+
+List Comprehensions
+===================
+
+In general list comprehensions are always preferred to map() and filter() calls.
+
+However, they can be abused.  Optimize for readability, and avoid nesting them too deeply.
+
+Regexes
+=======
+
+There is a time and place for them, but here's an illustrative joke.
+
+"A developer had a problem, and used a regular expression to solve it.  Now the developer had two problems".
+
+Often regexes are difficult to maintain, and a trusty call to other string operations can be a great solution, faster,
+and more readable.
+
+File Conventions
+================
+
+If a piece of code looks for a named YAML file in a directory, it should assume it can take no extension, or an extension of '.yml' or '.yaml'.
+This should be true against all code that loads files.
+
+Any code that uses directories should consider the possibility that the directory may be symlink.
+
+New Ansible language parameters
+===============================
+
+If adding a new parameter, like 'can_fizzbuzz: True/False' be sure the value of the parameter is templated somewhere in the Runner code, as if anything can be parameterized in Ansible,
+there is a user that will try to parameterize it.
+
+String Find
+===========
+
+Use 'in':
+
+    # not this:
+    if x.find('foo') != -1:
+
+    # this: 
+    if 'foo' in x:
+
+String checks
+=============
+
+To test if something is a string, consider that it may be unicode.
+
+    # no
+    if type(x) == str:
+
+    # yes
+    if isinstance(x, basestring):
+
+Cleverness
+==========
+
+Ansible's code is intended to be read by as many people as possible, so we don't particularly encourage clever or heavily idiomatic code.
+
+In particular, metaclasses are probably not appropriate, however entertaining they may be to add.
+
+Git Practices
+=============
+
+Pull requests cannot be accepted that contain merge commits.
+
+Always do "git pull --rebase" and "git rebase" vs "git pull" or "git merge".
+
+Always create a new branch for each pull request to avoid intertwingling different features or fixes on the same branch.
+
+   
+Python Version Compliance
+=========================
+
+All code in Ansible core must support a minimum version of Python 2.6.
+
+Module code must support a minimum of Python 2.4, with occasional exception for modules that require code that themselves require 2.6 and later.
+
+A quick reminder is that list comprehensions in Python 2.4 are not as fully fleshed out, there are no 'dict' comprehensions, and there is no 'with' statement.
+But otherwise it's pretty much all the same.
+
+The End
+=======
+
+This was not meant to be a scary document, so we hope it wasn't, but we also hope this helps you write code that is easier to maintain by others in the future.
+If you have questions about this document, please ask on the ansible-devel mailing list.
+
+Thank you!

+Ansible Community  Information
+==============================
+
+The purpose of the Ansible community is to  unite developers, system administrators, operations, and 
+IT managers to share and build great automation solutions.  This document contains all sorts of 
+information about how to contribute and interact with Ansible.  Welcome!
+
+Ways to Interact
+================
+
+There are a lot of ways to join and  be a part  of the  Ansible community, such as:
+
+Sharing Ansible with Others
+---------------------------
+
+You can help share Ansible with others by telling friends and colleagues, writing a blog post, 
+or presenting at user groups (like DevOps groups or the local LUG or BUG).  You are also 
+welcome to share slides on speakerdeck, sign up for a free account and tag it “Ansible”. On Twitter, 
+you can also share things with #ansible and may wish 
+to follow [@Ansible](https://twitter.com/ansible).
+
+Sharing Content and Tips
+------------------------
+
+Join the [Ansible project mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-project) and you 
+can share playbooks you may have written and other interesting implementation stories. Put your Ansible 
+content up on places like github  to share with others.
+
+Sharing A Feature Idea
+----------------------
+
+Ideas are very welcome and the best place to share them is the [Ansible project mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-project) ([Subscribe](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-project/join)) or #ansible on irc.freenode.net.
+
+While you can file a feature request on GitHub, pull requests are a much better way to get your feature added than submitting a feature request.  Open source is all about itch scratching, and it's less likely that someone else will have the same itches as yourself.  We keep code reasonably simple on purpose so it's easy to dive in and make additions, but be sure to read the "Contributing Code" section below too -- as it doesn't hurt to have a discussion about a feature first -- we're inclined to have preferences about how incoming features might be implemented, and that can save confusion later.
+
+Helping with Documentation
+--------------------------
+
+Ansible documentation is a community project too!  If you would like to help with the 
+documentation, whether correcting a typo or improving a section, or maybe even 
+documenting a new feature, submit a github pull request to  the code that
+lives in the “docsite/rst” subdirectory of the project.   Docs are in restructured text
+format.  If you aren’t comfortable with restructured text, you can also open a ticket on 
+github about any errors you spot or sections you would like to see added. For more information
+on creating pull requests, please refer to the
+[github help guide](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests).
+
+
+Contributing Code (Features or Bugfixes)
+----------------------------------------
+
+The Ansible project keeps it’s source on github at 
+[github.com/ansible/ansible](http://github.com/ansible/ansible) 
+and takes contributions through
+[github pull requests](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests).
+
+It is usually a good idea to join the ansible-devel list to discuss any large features prior to submission, and this especially helps in avoiding duplicate work or efforts where we decide, upon seeing a pull request for the first time, that revisions are needed.  (This is not usually needed for module development)
+
+Note that we do keep Ansible to a particular aesthetic, so if you are unclear about whether a feature
+is a good fit or not, having the discussion on the development list is often a lot easier than having
+to modify a pull request later.
+
+When submitting patches, be sure to run the unit tests first “make tests” and always use 
+“git rebase” vs “git merge” (aliasing git pull to git pull --rebase is a great idea) to 
+avoid merge commits in your submissions.  There are also integration tests that can be run in the "tests/integration" directory.  
+
+In order to keep the history clean and better audit incoming code, we will require resubmission of pull requests that contain merge commits.  Use "git pull --rebase" vs "git pull" and "git rebase" vs "git merge". Also be sure to use topic branches to keep your additions on different branches, such that they won't pick up stray commits later.
+
+We’ll then review your contributions and engage with you about questions and  so on.  
+
+As we have a very large and active community, so it may take awhile to get your contributions 
+in!  See the notes about priorities in a later section for understanding our work queue.
+
+Patches should be made against the 'devel' branch.
+
+Contributions can be for new features like modules, or to fix bugs you or others have found. If you 
+are interested in writing new modules to be included in the core Ansible distribution, please refer 
+to the [Module Developers documentation on our website](http://docs.ansible.com/developing_modules.html).
+
+Ansible's aesthetic encourages simple, readable code and consistent, conservatively extending, 
+backwards-compatible improvements.  Code developed for Ansible needs to support Python 2.6+, 
+while code in modules must run under Python 2.4 or higher.  Please also use a 4-space indent
+and no tabs.
+
+Tip: To easily run from a checkout, source "./hacking/env-setup" and that's it -- no install
+required.  You're now live!
+
+
+Reporting A Bug
+---------------
+
+Ansible practices responsible disclosure - if this is a security related bug, email security@ansible.com instead of filing a ticket or posting to the Google Group and you will recieve a prompt response.
+
+Bugs should be reported to [github.com/ansible/ansible](http://github.com/ansible/ansible) after 
+signing up for a free github account.  Before reporting a bug, please use the bug/issue search 
+to see if the issue has already been reported.  
+
+When filing a bug, please use the [issue template](https://raw2.github.com/ansible/ansible/devel/examples/issues/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md) to provide all relevant information.
+
+Do not use the issue tracker for "how do I do this" type questions.  These are great candidates
+for IRC or the mailing list instead where things are likely to be more of a discussion.
+
+To be respectful of reviewers time and allow us to help everyone efficiently, please 
+provide minimal well-reduced and well-commented examples versus sharing your entire production
+playbook.  Include playbook snippets and output where possible.  
+
+Content in the GitHub bug tracker can be indented four spaces to preserve formatting.  
+For multiple-file content, we encourage use of gist.github.com.  Online pastebin content can expire.
+
+If you are not sure if something is a bug yet, you are welcome to ask about something on 
+the mailing list or IRC first.  As we are a very high volume project, if you determine that 
+you do have a bug, please be sure to open the issue yourself to ensure we have a record of
+it. Don’t rely on someone else in the community to file the bug report for you.
+
+It may take some time to get to your report, see "A Note About Priorities" below.
+
+A Note About Priorities
+=======================
+
+Ansible was one of the top 5 projects with the most OSS contributors on GitHub in 2013, and well over
+600 people have added code to the project.  As a result, we have a LOT of incoming activity to process.
+
+In the interest of transparency, we're telling you how we do this.
+
+In our bug tracker you'll notice some labels - P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5.  These are our internal
+priority orders that we use to sort tickets.  
+
+With some exceptions for easy merges (like documentation typos for instance), 
+we're going to spend most of our time working on P1 and P2 items first, including pull requests.  
+These usually relate to important
+bugs or features affecting large segments of the userbase.  So if you see something categorized
+"P3 or P4", and it's not appearing to get a lot of immediate attention, this is why.
+
+These labels don't really have definition - they are a simple ordering.  However something
+affecting a major module (yum, apt, etc) is likely to be prioritized higher than a module
+affecting a smaller number of users.
+
+Since we place a strong emphasis on testing and code review, it may take a few months for a minor feature to get merged.
+
+Don't worry though -- we'll also take periodic sweeps through the lower priority queues and give
+them some attention as well, particularly in the area of new module changes.  So it doesn't neccessarily
+mean that we'll be exhausting all of the higher-priority queues before getting to your ticket.
+
+Release Numbering
+=================
+
+Releases ending in ".0" are major releases and this is where all new features land.  Releases ending
+in another integer, like "0.X.1" and "0.X.2" are dot releases, and these are only going to contain
+bugfixes.  Typically we don't do dot releases for minor releases, but may occasionally decide to cut
+dot releases containing a large number of smaller fixes if it's still a fairly long time before
+the next release comes out.
+
+Online Resources
+================
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+
+The main ansible documentation can be found at [docs.ansible.com](http://docs.ansible.com). 
+As mentioned above this is an open source project, so we accept contributions to the documentation. 
+You can also find some best practices examples that we recommend reading at 
+[ansible-examples](http://github.com/ansible/ansible-examples).
+
+Mailing lists
+-------------
+
+Ansible has several mailing lists.  Your first post to the mailing list will be 
+moderated (to reduce spam), so please allow a day or less for your first post.
+
+[ansible-announce](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-announce) is for release 
+announcements and major news.  It is a low traffic read-only list and you should only get a few 
+emails a month.
+
+[ansible-project](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-project) is the main list, and is 
+used for sharing cool projects you may have built, talking about Ansible ideas, and for users to ask 
+questions or to help other users.
+
+[ansible-devel](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ansible-devel) is a technical list for 
+developers working on Ansible and Ansible modules.  Join here to discuss how to build modules, 
+prospective feature implementations, or technical challenges.
+
+To subscribe to a group from a non-google account, you can email the subscription address, for 
+example ansible-devel+subscribe@googlegroups.com.
+
+IRC
+---
+
+Ansible has a general purpose IRC channel available at #ansible on irc.freenode.net.
+Use this channel for all types of conversations, including sharing tips, coordinating 
+development work, or getting help from other users.

+
+
+Ansible
+=======
+
+Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, application deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration engine.
+
+Read the documentation and more at http://ansible.com/
+
+Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release.  You can find 
+instructions [here](http://docs.ansible.com/intro_getting_started.html) for a variety of platforms.  If you want a tarball of the last release, go to [releases.ansible.com](http://releases.ansible.com/ansible) and you can also install with pip.
+
+Design Principles
+=================
+
+   * Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
+   * Be super fast & parallel by default
+   * Require no server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
+   * Use a language that is both machine and human friendly
+   * Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
+   * Manage remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping
+   * Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
+   * Be usable as non-root
+   * Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
+  
+Get Involved
+============
+
+   * Read [Contributing.md](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/CONTRIBUTING.md) for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.  
+   * All code submissions are done through pull requests.  Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use "git rebase" vs "git merge" for this reason.  If submitting a large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add first and to avoid duplicate efforts.  This not only helps everyone know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed.
+   * irc.freenode.net: #ansible
+
+Branch Info
+===========
+
+   * Releases are named after Van Halen songs.
+   * The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
+   * Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases
+   * We'd love to have your contributions, read "CONTRIBUTING.md" for process notes.

-changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers easy. More information on the Ansible `website <https://ansible.com/>`_.
-
-Design Principles
-=================
-
-*  Have an extremely simple setup process with a minimal learning curve.
-*  Manage machines quickly and in parallel.
-*  Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by
-   leveraging the existing SSH daemon.
-*  Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human
-   friendly.
-*  Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content.
-*  Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any
-   software.
-*  Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python.
-*  Be usable as non-root.
-*  Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
-
-Use Ansible
-===========
-
-You can install a released version of Ansible with ``pip`` or a package manager. See our
-`installation guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html>`_ for details on installing Ansible
-on a variety of platforms.
-
-Power users and developers can run the ``devel`` branch, which has the latest
-features and fixes, directly. Although it is reasonably stable, you are more likely to encounter
-breaking changes when running the ``devel`` branch. We recommend getting involved
-in the Ansible community if you want to run the ``devel`` branch.
-
-Get Involved
-============
-
-*  Read `Community
-   Information <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community>`_ for all
-   kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project,
-   including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and
-   code to Ansible.
-*  Join a `Working Group
-   <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki>`_, an organized community devoted to a specific technology domain or platform.
-*  Submit a proposed code update through a pull request to the ``devel`` branch.
-*  Talk to us before making larger changes
-   to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone
-   know what is going on, but it also helps save time and effort if we decide
-   some changes are needed.
-*  For a list of email lists, IRC channels and Working Groups, see the
-   `Communication page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html>`_
-
-Coding Guidelines
-=================
-
-We document our Coding Guidelines in the `Developer Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/>`_. We particularly suggest you review:
-
-* `Contributing your module to Ansible <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_checklist.html>`_
-* `Conventions, tips, and pitfalls <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html>`_
-
-Branch Info
-===========
-
-*  The ``devel`` branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
-*  The ``stable-2.X`` branches correspond to stable releases.
-*  Create a branch based on ``devel`` and set up a `dev environment <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#common-environment-setup>`_ if you want to open a PR.
-*  See the `Ansible release and maintenance <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html>`_ page for information about active branches.
-
-Roadmap
-=======
-
-Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor version (ex: 2.7, 2.8).
-The `Ansible Roadmap page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/>`_ details what is planned and how to influence the roadmap.
-
-Authors
-=======
-
-Ansible was created by `Michael DeHaan <https://github.com/mpdehaan>`_
-and has contributions from over 5000 users (and growing). Thanks everyone!
-
-`Ansible <https://www.ansible.com>`_ is sponsored by `Red Hat, Inc.

+========
+
+A brief description of the role goes here.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+Any pre-requisites that may not be covered by Ansible itself or the role should be mentioned here. For instance, if the role uses the EC2 module, it may be a good idea to mention in this section that the boto package is required.
+
+Role Variables
+--------------
+
+A description of the settable variables for this role should go here, including any variables that are in defaults/main.yml, vars/main.yml, and any variables that can/should be set via parameters to the role. Any variables that are read from other roles and/or the global scope (ie. hostvars, group vars, etc.) should be mentioned here as well.
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+A list of other roles hosted on Galaxy should go here, plus any details in regards to parameters that may need to be set for other roles, or variables that are used from other roles.
+
+Example Playbook
+-------------------------
+
+Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:
+
+    - hosts: servers
+      roles:
+         - { role: username.rolename, x: 42 }
+
+License
+-------
+
+BSD
+
+Author Information
+------------------
+
+An optional section for the role authors to include contact information, or a website (HTML is not allowed).

+# 1. $workdir/path/playbook.yml, if specified
+# 2. $workdir/$fqdn.yml
+# 3. $workdir/$hostname.yml

-ansible-core 2.12 "Dazed and Confused" Release Notes
-====================================================
-
-.. contents:: Topics
-
-
-v2.12.6
-=======
-
-Release Summary
----------------
-
-| Release Date: 2022-05-23
-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__
-
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Prevent losing unsafe on results returned from lookups (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77535)
-- arg_spec - Fix incorrect ``no_log`` warning when a parameter alias is used (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77576)
-- plugin loader will now load config data for plugin by name instead of by file to avoid issues with the same file being loaded under different names (fqcn + short name).
-- variablemanager, more efficient read of vars files
-
-v2.12.5
-=======
-
-Release Summary
----------------
-
-| Release Date: 2022-04-25
-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__
-
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Ansible.ModuleUtils.SID - Use user principal name as is for lookup in the ``Convert-ToSID`` function - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77316
-- Fix traceback when installing a collection from a git repository and git is not installed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77479).
-- ansible-test - Correctly detect when running as the ``root`` user (UID 0) on the origin host. The result of the detection was incorrectly being inverted.
-- ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/python`` on the origin host.
-- ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/root`` on the origin host.
-- ansible-test compile sanity test - do not crash if a column could not be determined for an error (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77465).
-- hostname - use ``file_get_content()`` to read the file containing the host name in the ``FileStrategy.get_permanent_hostname()`` method. This prevents a ``TypeError`` from being raised when the strategy is used (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77025).
-- script - skip in check mode since the plugin cannot determine if a change will occur.
-- shell/command - only skip in check mode if the options `creates` and `removes` are both None.
-- winrm - Ensure ``kinit`` is run with the same ``PATH`` env var as the Ansible process
-
-v2.12.4
-=======
-
-Release Summary
----------------
-
-| Release Date: 2022-03-28
-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__
-
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Add a YAML representer for ``NativeJinjaText``
-- Add a YAML representer for ``NativeJinjaUnsafeText``
-- AnsiballZ - Ensure we use the full python package in the module cache filename to avoid a case where ``collections:`` is used to execute a module via short name, where the short name duplicates another module from ``ansible.builtin`` or another collection that was executed previously.
-- Fix collection filter/test plugin redirects (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77192).
-- ansible-galaxy collection verify - display files/directories not included in the FILES.json as modified content.
-- ansible-test - Fix ``windows-integration`` and ``network-integration`` when used with the ``--docker`` option and user-provided inventory.
-- extend timeout for ansible-galaxy when communicating with the galaxy server api, and apply it to all interactions with the api
-- first_found - fix to allow for spaces in file names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77136)
-- unarchive - the ``io_buffer_size`` option added in 2.12 was not accepted by the module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77271).

-v2.12.3
-=======
-
-Release Summary
----------------
-
-| Release Date: 2022-02-28
-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__
-
-
-Minor Changes
--------------
-
-- The collection loader now reports a Python warning if an attempt is made to install the Ansible collection loader a second time. Previously this condition was reported using an Ansible warning.
-- ansible-test - Installation of ``cryptography`` is no longer version constrained when ``openssl`` 1.1.0 or later is installed.
-- ansible-test - Requirements for the plugin import test are now frozen.
-- ansible-test - The ``pip`` and ``wheel`` packages are removed from all sanity test virtual environments after installation completes to reduce their size. Previously they were only removed from the environments used for the ``import`` sanity test.
-- ansible-test - The hash for all managed sanity test virtual environments has changed. Containers that include ``ansible-test sanity --prime-venvs`` will need to be rebuilt to continue using primed virtual environments.
-- ansible-test - Update ``pip`` used to bootstrap remote FreeBSD instances from version 20.3.4 to 21.3.1.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``alpine`` container to version 3.3.0. This updates the base image from 3.14.2 to 3.15.0, which includes support for installing binary wheels using pip.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``galaxy`` test plugin to get its container from a copy on quay.io.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``openshift`` test plugin to get its container from a copy on quay.io.
-- junit callback - Add support for replacing the directory portion of out-of-tree relative task paths with a placeholder.
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- ansible-test - All virtual environments managed by ansible-test are marked as usable after being bootstrapped, to avoid errors caused by use of incomplete environments. Previously this was only done for sanity tests. Existing environments from previous versions of ansible-test will be recreated on demand due to lacking the new marker.
-- ansible-test - Fix the ``validate-modules`` sanity test to avoid double-loading the collection loader and possibly failing on import of the ``packaging`` module.
-- ansible-test - Import ``yaml.cyaml.CParser`` instead of ``_yaml.CParser`` in the ``yamllint`` sanity test.
-- ansible-test - Replace the directory portion of out-of-tree paths in JUnit files from integration tests with the ``out-of-tree:`` prefix.
-- ansible-test - Sanity tests run with the ``--requirements` option for Python 2.x now install ``virtualenv`` when it is missing or too old. Previously it was only installed if missing. Version 16.7.12 is now installed instead of the latest version on Python 2.7.
-- ansible-test - The ``import`` sanity test no longer reports errors about ``packaging`` being missing when testing collections.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``default`` containers to version 4.2.0.
-- ansible-test - Use https://ci-files.testing.ansible.com/ for instance bootstrapping instead of an S3 endpoint.
-- ansible-test - Use relative paths in JUnit files generated during integration test runs.
-- ansible-test - Virtual environments managed by ansible-test now use consistent versions of ``pip``, ``setuptools`` and ``wheel``. This avoids issues with virtual environments containing outdated or dysfunctional versions of these tools. The initial bootstrapping of ``pip`` is done by ansible-test from an HTTPS endpoint instead of creating the virtual environment with it already present.
-- cleaning facts will now only warn about the variable name and not post the content, which can be undesireable to disclose
-- correctly inherit vars from parent in block (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75286).
-- gather_facts action now handles the move of base connection plugin types into collections to add/prevent subset argument correctly
-- junit callback - Fix traceback during automatic fact gathering when using relative paths.
-- junit callback - Fix unicode error when handling non-ASCII task paths.
-- ssh connection now uses more correct host source as play_context can ignore loop/delegation variations.
-- task_executor reverts the change to push facts into delegated vars on loop finalization as result managing code already handles this and was duplicating effort to wrong result.
-- template lookup - restore inadvertently deleted default for ``convert_data`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77004)
-- unarchive - Make extraction work when the LANGUAGE environment variable is set to a non-English locale.

-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__

-
-Major Changes
--------------
-
-- Python Controller Requirement - Python 3.8 or newer is required for the control node (the machine that runs Ansible) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74013)
-- ansible-test - All "cloud" plugins which use containers can now be used with all POSIX and Windows hosts. Previously the plugins did not work with Windows at all, and support for hosts created with the ``--remote`` option was inconsistent.
-- ansible-test - Collections can now specify controller and target specific integration test requirements and constraints. If provided, they take precedence over the previously available requirements and constraints files.
-- ansible-test - Integration tests run with the ``integration`` command can now be executed on two separate hosts instead of always running on the controller. The target host can be one provided by ``ansible-test`` or by the user, as long as it is accessible using SSH.
-- ansible-test - Most container features are now supported under Podman. Previously a symbolic link for ``docker`` pointing to ``podman`` was required.
-- ansible-test - New ``--controller`` and ``--target`` / ``--target-python`` options have been added to allow more control over test environments.
-- ansible-test - Python 3.8 - 3.10 are now required to run ``ansible-test``, thus matching the Ansible controller Python requirements. Older Python versions (2.6 - 2.7 and 3.5 - 3.10) can still be the target for relevant tests.
-- ansible-test - SSH port forwarding and redirection is now used exclusively to make container ports available on non-container hosts. When testing on POSIX systems this requires SSH login as root. Previously SSH port forwarding was combined with firewall rules or other port redirection methods, with some platforms being unsupported.
-- ansible-test - Sanity tests always run in isolated Python virtual environments specific to the requirements of each test. The environments are cached.
-- ansible-test - Sanity tests are now separated into two categories, controller and target. All tests except ``import`` and ``compile`` are controller tests. The controller tests always run using the same Python version used to run ``ansible-test``. The target tests use the Python version(s) specified by the user, or all available Python versions.
-- ansible-test - Sanity tests now use fully pinned requirements that are independent of each other and other test types.
-- ansible-test - Tests run with the ``centos6`` and ``default`` test containers now use a PyPI proxy container to access PyPI when Python 2.6 is used. This allows tests running under Python 2.6 to continue functioning even though PyPI is discontinuing support for non-SNI capable clients.
-- ansible-test - The ``future-import-boilerplate`` and ``metaclass-boilerplate`` sanity tests are limited to remote-only code. Additionally, they are skipped for collections which declare no support for Python 2.x.
-- ansible-test - The ``import`` and ``compile`` sanity tests limit remote-only Python version checks to remote-only code.
-- ansible-test - Unit tests for controller-only code now require Python 3.8 or later.
-- ansible-test - Version neutral sanity tests now require Python 3.8 or later.
-- junit callback - The ``junit_xml`` and ``ordereddict`` Python modules are no longer required to use the ``junit`` callback plugin.
-
-Minor Changes
--------------
-
-- Add ``end_batch`` meta task.
-- Allow connection and become passwords to be set by file/executable script. Also document this was already the case for vault.
-- CLI - Remove ``__requires__`` attribute for ``pkg_resources``
-- Collections can define action_groups in ``meta/runtime.yml``.
-- Introduce a config option to enable/disable emitting warning about Jinja2 version being old for ``jinja2_native``. The option is on by default, only in CI it is off.
-- Make the code structure of ansible-doc's generic snippet feature more maintainable.
-- On RHEL 9, CentOS Stream 9 etc., use /usr/bin/python3 as the default interpreter; /usr/libexec/platform-python is just a backwards-compatibility symbolic link there.
-- PowerShell - Added support for optional module_util imports by scanning for ``-Optional`` at the end of the import declaration
-- Python 2.6 Target Support - Deprecate Python 2.6 for targets, requiring Python 2.7 or newer. ``ansible-core==2.13`` will drop support for Python 2.6. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74165)
-- Task - Add a resolved_action attribute for Task objects to get the final resolved plugin.
-- Templar - remove ``_fail_on_lookup_errors`` and ``_fail_on_filter_errors`` instance variables that were never used. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/73785)
-- The AnsiballZ Python wrapper now changes the working directory to ``~`` or ``/`` if the current one is not accessible. This allows become to drop privileges on macOS when using pipelining.
-- Update test container ansible-core-test-container to version 3.6.0
-- Update test container ansible-core-test-container to version 3.7.0
-- Update test container default-test-container to version 3.6.0
-- Update test container default-test-container to version 3.7.0
-- Update vendored copy of ``six`` to 1.16.0 to eliminate warnings for deprecated python loader methods in Python 3.10+ (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74659)
-- Update vendored copy of distro to 1.6.0
-- Vendor ``distutils.version`` due to it's deprecation in Python 3.10 and impending removal in Python 3.12 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74599)
-- YAML parsing - Create common utils for loading and dumping YAML that prefer the C extensions if available
-- ``include_role`` - Allow use of ``omit`` in the ``from_*`` arguments (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66349)
-- ``uri``/``get_url`` - Expose ``unredirected_headers`` to modules to allow user control
-- `ansible.plugins.callback.CallbackBase.host_label()` has been factored out as a static method (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/73814).
-- action_groups can include actions from other groups by using the special ``metadata`` dictionary field.
-- add a quick short circuit when checking if a string is a template to improve performance on large strings (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74336)
-- add host label to retry print statements
-- added new function to module utils to choose best possible locale.
-- adds the ``undef`` keyword to the templating environment. This allows for directly creating Undefined values in templates. It is most useful for providing a hint for variables which must be overridden.
-- ansbile-doc now also shows snippets for inventory and lookup, adding to existing modules.
-- ansible adhoc, clarified the help to some options, also added some comments to code.
-- ansible-cli - remove unnecessary trailing space in ``ansible --version`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74875).
-- ansible-config can now list and dump for specific documentable plugins by specifying them in the command line
-- ansible-config has new 'init' option to create, highly commented, example configurations as ini (ansible.cfg), environment variables (shell) or Ansible variable files (YAML)
-- ansible-config now supports displaying plugin configuration info.

-- ansible-doc pretty cli options output.
-- ansible-doc, improve handling of rstisms, try to make the display more meaningfull for the terminal users.
-- ansible-galaxy - Allow specification of client_id override value for Keycloak Token (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75593).
-- ansible-galaxy - Allow validate_certs to be configured for individual Galaxy servers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75677).
-- ansible-galaxy - Installing a collection from a git repository without specifying a version (or using the version ``HEAD``) will clone the repository using --depth=1.
-- ansible-galaxy - Non-HTTP exceptions from Galaxy servers are now a warning and only fatal if the collection to download|install|verify is not available from any of the servers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75443).
-- ansible-test - A new ``base`` test container is available. It is similar to the ``default`` test container, but contains no pre-installed Python packages other than ``pip`` and its dependencies.
-- ansible-test - Add RHEL 8.4 as a remote.
-- ansible-test - Add ``--prime-venvs`` option to create virtual environments without running tests.

-- ansible-test - Add support for testing with Python 3.10.
-- ansible-test - Added a ``--prime-containers`` option to support downloading containers without running tests.
-- ansible-test - Adding DigitalOcean cloud support to ansible-test (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74222).
-- ansible-test - All "cloud" plugins have been refactored for more consistency. For those that use docker containers, management of the containers has been standardized.
-- ansible-test - All "cloud" plugins now use fixed hostnames and ports in tests. Previously some tests used IP addresses and/or randomly assigned ports.
-- ansible-test - Changes made to the ``hosts`` file on test systems are now done using an Ansible playbook for both POSIX and Windows systems. Changes are applied before a test target runs and are reverted after the test target finishes.
-- ansible-test - Clean up code in the cloud plugins.
-- ansible-test - Collections can declare their remote-only code (modules/module_utils and related tests) as controller-only.
-- ansible-test - Collections can limit the Python versions used for testing their remote-only code (modules/module_utils and related tests).

-- ansible-test - Default settings are now applied to unknown versions of known ``--remote`` platforms.
-- ansible-test - Distribution specific test containers have been updated to version 3.0.0.
-- ansible-test - Environment checking (``pip``, ``python``, ``~/.ssh/known_hosts``, etc.) is no longer performed when running integration tests.
-- ansible-test - Environment variables exposed by "cloud" plugins are now available to the controller for role based tests. Previously only script based tests had access to the exposed environment variables.

-- ansible-test - The HTTP Tester has been converted to a "cloud" plugin and can now be requested using the ``cloud/httptester`` alias. The original ``needs/httptester`` alias is still supported for backwards compatibility.
-- ansible-test - The ``--docker-keep-git`` option (used only for testing ansible-core) has been renamed to ``--keep-git``.
-- ansible-test - The ``--python`` option can be used without another delegation option such as the ``--venv`` or ``--docker`` options.
-- ansible-test - The ``ansible-test coverage`` commands ``combine``, ``report``, ``html`` and ``xml`` now support delegation.

-- ansible-test - The ``docker run`` option ``--link`` is no longer used to connect test containers. As a result, changes are made to the ``/etc/hosts`` file as needed on all test containers. Previously containers which were used with the ``--link`` option did not require changes to the ``/etc/hosts`` file.
-- ansible-test - The ``import`` sanity test now requires that Ansible modules guard instantiation of ``AnsibleModule`` with a ``if __name__ == '__main__'`` conditional, or equivalent logic.
-- ansible-test - The ``import`` sanity test now requires that non-modules do not instantiate ``AnsibleModule`` on import.
-- ansible-test - The ``validate-modules`` sanity test codes ``ansible-deprecated-module`` and ``collection-deprecated-module`` have been added.
-- ansible-test - The ``validate-modules`` sanity test codes ``last-line-main-call``, ``missing-if-name-main`` and ``missing-main-call`` have been removed.
-- ansible-test - The ``validate-modules`` sanity test no longer enforces the ``missing-if-name-main``, ``last-line-main-call`` or ``missing-main-call`` checks on non-deleted Ansible modules. Modules are still required to instantiate ``AnsibleModule`` when ``__name__ == '__main__'``.
-- ansible-test - Unit tests are now run in separate contexts (``controller``, ``modules``, ``module_utils``), each using separate invocations of ``pytest``.
-- ansible-test - Unit tests other than ``modules`` and ``module_utils`` are now run only on Python versions supported by the controller (Python 3.8+).
-- ansible-test - Update ``typed-ast`` constraint to version 1.4.3 for compatibility with Python 3.10.

-- ansible-test - virtualenv-isolated.sh is no longer provided. Prefer virtualenv.sh in its place.
-- ansible-test validate-modules - enforce that ``_info`` and ``_facts`` modules set ``supports_check_mode=True`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75324).
-- ansible-vault - remove support for ``PyCrypto`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/72646)
-- apt - added an ``allow_downgrade`` option to enable safe downgrade of packages without using ``force`` which doesn't verify signatures (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/29451, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74852).
-- apt, added a 'lock_timeout' to be more resilient when encountering the apt db already locked and handle it w/o haveing to rerun task.
-- async tasks - the use of the task-level ``ANSIBLE_ASYNC_DIR`` variable within ``environment:`` is no longer valid. Use the shell configuration variable ``async_dir`` instead.
-- async_wrapper, better reporting on timeout, slight refactor on reporting itself.
-- basic module_util - Clean up ``selinux`` compat import.

-Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
---------------------------------
-
-- Action, module, and group names in module_defaults must be static values. Their values can still be templates.
-- Fully qualified 'ansible.legacy' plugin names are not included implicitly in action_groups.
-- Unresolvable groups, action plugins, and modules in module_defaults are an error.
-- ansible-test - Automatic installation of requirements for "cloud" test plugins no longer occurs. The affected test plugins are ``aws``, ``azure``, ``cs``, ``hcloud``, ``nios``, ``opennebula``, ``openshift`` and ``vcenter``. Collections should instead use one of the supported integration test requirements files, such as the ``tests/integration/requirements.txt`` file.
-- ansible-test - The HTTP Tester is no longer available with the ``ansible-test shell`` command. Only the ``integration`` and ``windows-integration`` commands provide HTTP Tester.
-- ansible-test - The ``--disable-httptester`` option is no longer available. The HTTP Tester is no longer optional for tests that specify it.
-- ansible-test - The ``--httptester`` option is no longer available. To override the container used for HTTP Tester tests, set the ``ANSIBLE_HTTP_TEST_CONTAINER`` environment variable instead.
-- ansible-test - Unit tests for ``modules`` and ``module_utils`` are now limited to importing only ``ansible.module_utils`` from the ``ansible`` module.
-- conditionals - ``when`` conditionals no longer automatically parse string booleans such as ``"true"`` and ``"false"`` into actual booleans. Any non-empty string is now considered true. The ``CONDITIONAL_BARE_VARS`` configuration variable no longer has any effect.
-- hostname - Drops any remaining support for Python 2.4 by using ``with open()`` to simplify exception handling code which leaked file handles in several spots
-- hostname - On FreeBSD, the string ``temporarystub`` no longer gets written to the hostname file in the get methods (and in check_mode). As a result, the default hostname will now appear as ``''`` (empty string) instead of ``temporarystub`` for consistency with other strategies. This means the ``before`` result will be different.
-- hostname - On OpenRC systems and Solaris, the ``before`` value will now be ``''`` (empty string) if the permanent hostname file does not exist, for consistency with other strategies.
-- intersect, difference, symmetric_difference, union filters - the default behavior is now to be case-sensitive (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74255)
-- unique filter - the default behavior is now to fail if Jinja2's filter fails and explicit ``case_sensitive=False`` as the Ansible's fallback is case-sensitive (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74256)
-
-Deprecated Features
--------------------
-
-- ansible-test - The ``--docker-no-pull`` option is deprecated and has no effect.
-- ansible-test - The ``--no-pip-check`` option is deprecated and has no effect.
-- include action is deprecated in favor of include_tasks, import_tasks and import_playbook.
-- module_utils' FileLock is scheduled to be removed, it is not used due to its unreliable nature.
-
-Removed Features (previously deprecated)
-----------------------------------------
-
-- The built-in module_util ``ansible.module_utils.common.removed`` was previously deprecated and has been removed.
-- connections, removed password check stubs that had been moved to become plugins.
-- task, inline parameters being auto coerced into variables has been removed.
-
-Security Fixes
---------------
-
-- Do not include params in exception when a call to ``set_options`` fails. Additionally, block the exception that is returned from being displayed to stdout. (CVE-2021-3620)
-- templating engine fix for not preserving usnafe status when trying to preserve newlines. CVE-2021-3583
-

-- Apply ``display_failed_stderr`` callback option on loop item results. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74864)
-- Binary GnuPG keys downloaded via URLs by the 'ansible.builtin.apt_key' module were corrupted so 'gpg' could not import them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74424).

-- Give a warning instead of an error if a handler name contains undefined variables and has no listen topics (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/58841).
-- Improve resilience of ``ansible-galaxy collection`` by increasing the page size to make fewer requests overall and retrying queries with a jittered exponential backoff when rate limiting HTTP codes (520 and 429) occur. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74191)
-- Jinja2 globals should be accessible even when importing a template without the context (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75371)
-- PlayContext - Remove deprecated ``make_become_cmd`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74136)

-- Save unreachable hosts between plays by adding them to the PlayIterator's _play._removed_hosts (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66945).
-- Solaris - correct version check in svcadm_supports_sync (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/73860).
-- Task depth - Prevent exception when the task depth exceeds Pythons recursion depth (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73996)
-- Templating - Ensure we catch exceptions when calling ``.filters()`` or ``.tests()`` on their respective plugins and properly error, instead of aborting which results in no filters being added to the jinja2 environment (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74127)
-- The ``apt_key`` module did not properly handle GnuPG errors (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74477)
-- The error message about the failure to import a ```gpg`` key by the ``apt_key`` module was incorrect (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74423).
-- Update network user guide to explain use of cli_parse and validate plugins.
-- Variable Manager - Only check if ``play.hosts`` is a template when the play hasn't been finalized (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73926)
-- WorkerProcess - Python 3.5 fix for workaround for stdout deadlock in multiprocessing shutdown to avoid process hangs. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74149)
-- ``AnsibleModule.run_command`` - Address thread safety issues, concerning mutating the environment, current working directory, and umask. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74783)
-- ``failed_when``/``changed_when`` - Catch templating errors to prevent masking of module output (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/37187)
-- ``heuristic_log_sanitize`` - Return the full string if there is no password (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75542)
-- ``pip`` now uses the ``pip`` Python module installed for the Ansible module's Python interpreter, if available, unless ``executable`` or ``virtualenv`` were specified.
-- advanced_host_list inventory plugin - Fixed variable referenced before assignment when hostname/range could not be parsed.
-- ansiballz - avoid treating path to site_packages as regex; escape it. This prevents a crash when ansible is installed to, or running from, an oddly named directory like ``ansi[ble``
-- ansible-doc - in text output, do not show empty ``version_added_collection`` values (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74999).
-- ansible-doc can now dump kewyords with --metadata-dump (still just for internal use)
-- ansible-doc, fix output for internal metadata dump option
-- ansible-doc, make inventory plugin selection for snippets generic and not a hardcoded list
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix a bug with build_ignore when installing collections from source (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75528).
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix handling HTTP exceptions from Galaxy servers. Continue to the next server in the list until the collection is found.
-- ansible-galaxy - Improve error message from dependency resolution when a candidate has inconsistent requirements (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75139).
-- ansible-inventory - handle an exception while parsing inventory in toml format (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74404).

-- ansible-pull, restore other options to use as repo other than git.
-- ansible-test - Add constraint for ``pyspnego>=0.1.6`` for Python 3.10 - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/74612
-- ansible-test - Avoid publishing the port used by the ``pypi-test-container`` since it is only accessed by other containers. This avoids issues when trying to run tests in parallel on a single host.
-- ansible-test - Failure to download test results from a remote host no longer hide test failures. If a download failure occurs after tests fail, a warning will be issued instead.
-- ansible-test - Fix docker container IP address detection. The ``bridge`` network is no longer assumed to be the default.
-- ansible-test - Fix path to inventory file for ``windows-integration`` and ``network-integration`` commands for collections.
-- ansible-test - Fix traceback when generating coverage reports and no coverage directory exists.
-- ansible-test - Random port selection is no longer handled by ``ansible-test``, avoiding possible port conflicts. Previously ``ansible-test`` would, under some circumstances, use one host's available ports to determine those of another host.
-- ansible-test - Running tests in a single test run with multiple "cloud" plugins no longer results in port conflicts. Previously two or more containers with overlapping ports could not be used in the same test run.
-- ansible-test - Tab completion after options like ``--docker`` which accept an optional argument will no longer provide incorrect completions.
-- ansible-test - The ``--python`` and ``--venv`` options are no longer ignored by some commands, such as ``coverage``.

-- ansible-test - Update distribution test containers to version 3.1.0.
-- ansible-test - Use ``--strict`` for ``pytest`` on Python 2.6 since ``--strict-markers`` is not available.
-- ansible-test - Use documented API to retrieve build information from Azure Pipelines.
-- ansible-test - Use pwsh to generate correct coverage line counts for stub files to get a more accurate coverage result
-- ansible-test - Use the correct variable to reference the client's SSH key when generating inventory.
-- ansible-test - add packaging python module to ``ansible-doc`` sanity test requirements.
-- ansible-test - allow the same listening port on all container interfaces
-- ansible-test - ensure the correct unit test target is given when the ``__init__.py`` file is modified inside the connection plugins directory
-- ansible-test - make the ``a/`` and ``b/`` prefixes an optional match since these can be turned off with the ``diff.noprefix`` setting in ``git``
-- ansible-test - restrict ``packaging`` to ``< 21.0`` for Python ``< 3.6`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75186).

-- become - work around setfacl not existing on modern Solaris (and possibly failing on some filesystems even when it does exist)
-- callbacks, restore displaying delegation to host as host label.
-- cli defaults for ssh args set to None as '' was bypassing normal default.
-- command - remove unreachable code path when trying to convert the value for ``chdir`` to bytes (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75036)
-- command module, clarify order of remove/creates checks.

-bugfixes:
-  - hostname - No longer modifies system files in get_* methods and therefore when consulted in check_mode (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66432)
-
-breaking_changes:
-  - hostname - Drops any remaining support for Python 2.4 by using ``with open()`` to simplify exception handling code which leaked file handles in several spots
-  - hostname - On FreeBSD, the string ``temporarystub`` no longer gets written to the hostname file in the get methods (and in check_mode). As a result, the default hostname will now appear as ``''`` (empty string) instead of ``temporarystub`` for consistency with other strategies. This means the ``before`` result will be different.
-  - hostname - On OpenRC systems and Solaris, the ``before`` value will now be ``''`` (empty string) if the permanent hostname file does not exist, for consistency with other strategies.
