  2.10.0b1:
    changes:
      bugfixes:
      - ActionBase - Add new ``cleanup`` method that is explicitly run by the ``TaskExecutor``
        to ensure that the shell plugins ``tmpdir`` is always removed. This change
        means that individual action plugins need not be responsible for removing
        the temporary directory, which ensures that we don't have code paths that
        accidentally leave behind the temporary directory.
      - Add example setting for ``collections_paths`` parameter to ``examples/ansible.cfg``
      - Add missing gcp modules to gcp module defaults group
      - Added support for Flatcar Container Linux in distribution and hostname modules.
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/69627)
      - Added support for OSMC distro in hostname module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66189).
      - Allow tasks to notify a fqcn handler name (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68181)
      - An invalid value is hard to track down if you don't know where it came from,
        return field name instead.
      - Ansible.Basic - Fix issue when setting a ``no_log`` parameter to an empty
        string - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/62613
      - 'Ansible.ModuleUtils.WebRequest - actually set no proxy when ``use_proxy:
        no`` is set on a Windows module - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68528'
      - AnsibleDumper - Add a representer for AnsibleUnsafeBytes (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/62562).
      - 'AnsibleModule.run_command() - set ``close_fds`` to ``False`` on Python 2
        if ``pass_fds`` are passed to ``run_command()``. Since ``subprocess.Popen()``
        on Python 2 does not have the ``pass_fds`` option, there is no way to exclude
        a specific list of file descriptors from being closed.

        '
      - Avoid bare select() for running commands to avoid too large file descriptor
        numbers failing tasks
      - Avoid running subfunctions that are passed to show_vars function when it will
        be a noop.
      - By passing the module_tmpdir as a parameter in the write_ssh_wrapper function
        instead of initalizing module_tmpdir via get_module_path()
      - CLI - the `ANSIBLE_PLAYBOOK_DIR` envvar or `playbook_dir` config can now substitute
        for the --playbook-dir arg on CLIs that support it (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59464)
      - Check NoneType for raw_params before proceeding in include_vars (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64939).
      - Collections - Allow a collection role to call a stand alone role, without
        needing to explicitly add ``ansible.legacy`` to the collection search order
        within the collection role. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69101)
      - Correctly process raw_params in add_hosts.
      - Create an ``import_module`` compat util, for use across the codebase, to allow
        collection loading to work properly on Python26
      - DUPLICATE_YAML_DICT_KEY - Fix error output when configuration option DUPLICATE_YAML_DICT_KEY
        is set to error (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65366)
      - Do not keep empty blocks in PlayIterator after skipping tasks with tags.
      - Ensure DataLoader temp files are removed at appropriate times and that we
        observe the LOCAL_TMP setting.
      - Ensure that ``--version`` works with non-ascii ansible project paths (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66617)
      - Ensure that keywords defined as booleans are correctly interpreting their
        input, before patch any random string would be interpreted as False
      - Ensure we don't allow ansible_facts subkey of ansible_facts to override top
        level, also fix 'deprefixing' to prevent key transforms.
      - Fact Delegation - Add ability to indicate which facts must always be delegated.
        Primarily for ``discovered_interpreter_python`` right now, but extensible
        later. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61002)
      - 'Fix a bug when a host was not removed from a play after ``meta: end_host``
        and as a result the host was still present in ``ansible_play_hosts`` and ``ansible_play_batch``
        variables.'
      - Fix an issue with the ``fileglob`` plugin where passing a subdirectory of
        non-existent directory would cause it to fail - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69450
      - Fix case sensitivity for ``lookup()`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66464)
      - Fix collection install error that happened if a dependency specified dependencies
        to be null (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/67574).

        authentication to ansible-galaxy
      - Fix incorrect "Could not match supplied host pattern" warning (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66764)
      - Fix issue git module cannot use custom `key_file` or `ssh_opts` as non-root
        user on system with noexec `/tmp` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/30064).
      - Fix issue git module ignores remote_tmp (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/33947).
      - Fix issue where the collection loader tracebacks if ``collections_paths =
        ./`` is set in the config
      - Fix issue with callbacks ``set_options`` method that was not called with collections
      - Fix label lookup in the default callback for includes (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65904)
      - Fix regression when ``ansible_failed_task`` and ``ansible_failed_result``
        are not defined in the rescue block (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64789)
      - Fix string parsing of inline vault strings for plugin config variable sources
      - Fix traceback when printing ``HostVars`` on native Jinja2 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65365)
      - Fixed a bug with the copy action plugin where mode=preserve was being passed
        on symlink files and causing a traceback (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68471).
      - Fixed the equality check for IncludedFiles to ensure they are not accidently
        merged when process_include_results runs.
      - Fixes in network action plugins load from collections using module prefix
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65071)
      - Force collection names to be static so that a warning is generated because
        templating currently does not work (see https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68704).
      - Handle empty extra vars in ansible cli (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61497).
      - Handle empty roles and empty collections in requirements.yml in ansible-galaxy
        install command (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68186).
      - Handle exception encountered while parsing the argument description in module
        when invoked via ansible-doc command (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/60587).
      - Handle exception when /etc/shadow file is missing or not found, while operating
        user operation in user module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63490).
      - HostVarsVars - Template the __repr__ value (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64128).
      - Make netconf plugin configurable to set ncclient device handler name in netconf
        plugin (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/65718)
      - Make sure if a collection is supplied as a string that we transform it into
        a list.
      - Misc typo fixes in various documentation pages.
      - Module arguments in suboptions which were marked as deprecated with ``removed_in_version``
        did not result in a warning.
      - On HTTP status code 304, return status_code
      - Plugin Metadata is supposed to have default values.  When the metadata was
        missing entirely, we were properly setting the defaults.  Fixed the metadata
        parsing so that the defaults are also set when we were missing just a few
        fields.
      - Prevent a race condition when running handlers using a combination of the
        free strategy and include_role.
      - Prevent rewriting nested Block's data in filter_tagged_tasks
      - Prevent templating unused variables for {% include %} (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68699)

      - Remove the unnecessary warning about aptitude not being installed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/56832).
      - Remove unused Python imports in ``ansible-inventory``.
      - Role Installation - Ensure that a role containing files with non-ascii characters
        can be installed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69133)
      - RoleRequirement - include stderr in the error message if a scm command fails
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/41336)
      - Skipping of become for ``network_cli`` connections now works when ``network_cli``
        is sourced from a collection.
      - Strictly check string datatype for 'tasks_from', 'vars_from', 'defaults_from',
        and 'handlers_from' in include_role (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68515).
      - Strip no log values from module response keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68400)
      - TaskQueueManager - Explicitly set the mutliprocessing start method to ``fork``
        to avoid issues with the default on macOS now being ``spawn``.
      - Templating - Ansible was caching results of Jinja2 expressions in some cases
        where these expressions could have dynamic results, like password generation
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/34144).
      - The ansible-galaxy publish command was using an incorrect URL for v3 servers.
        The configuration for v3 servers includes part of the path fragment that was
        added in the new test.
      - Update ActionBase._low_level_execute_command to honor executable (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68054)
      - Update the warning message for ``CONDITIONAL_BARE_VARS`` to list the original
        conditional not the value of the original conditional (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/67735)
      - Use ``sys.exit`` instead of ``exit`` in ``ansible-inventory``.
      - Use fqcr from command module invocation using shell module. Fixes https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69788
      - Use hostnamectl command to get current hostname for host while using systemd
        strategy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59438).
      - Using --start-at-task would fail when it attempted to skip over tasks with
        no name.
      - Validate include args in handlers.
      - Vault - Make the single vaulted value ``AnsibleVaultEncryptedUnicode`` class
        work more like a string by replicating the behavior of ``collections.UserString``
        from Python. These changes don't allow it to be considered a string, but most
        common python string actions will now work as expected. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/67823)
      - '``AnsibleUnsafe``/``AnsibleContext``/``Templar`` - Do not treat ``AnsibleUndefined``
        as being "unsafe" (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65198)'
      - account for empty strings in when splitting the host pattern (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61964)
      - add parameter name to warning message when values are converted to strings
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/57145)
      - add_host action now correctly shows idempotency/changed status
      - added 'unimplemented' prefix to file based caching
      - added new option for default callback to compat variable to avoid old 3rd
        party plugins from erroring out.
      - adhoc CLI - when playbook-dir is specified and inside a collection, use default
        collection logic to resolve modules/actions
      - allow external collections to be created in the 'ansible' collection namespace
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59988)
      - also strip spaces around config values in pathlist as we do in list types
      - ansiballz - remove '' and '.' from sys.path to fix a permissions issue on
        OpenBSD with pipelining (#69320)

      - ansible-doc - Allow and give precedence to `removed_at_date` for deprecated
        modules.
      - ansible-doc now properly handles removed modules/plugins

      - ansible-galaxy - Utilize ``Templar`` for templating skeleton files, so that
        they have access to Ansible filters/tests/lookups (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69104)
      - 'ansible-galaxy - fix a bug where listing a specific role if it was not in
        the first path failed to find the role

        '
      - ansible-galaxy - fix regression that prenented roles from being listed
      - 'ansible-galaxy - hide warning during collection installation if other installed
        collections do not contain a ``MANIFEST.json`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/67490)

        would be shown only for role subcommand (collection subcommand help is not
        shown). With this change, the entire help for ansible-galaxy (same as ansible-galaxy
        --help) is displayed along with the help for role subcommand. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69009)
      - ansible-inventory - Fix long standing bug not loading vars plugins for group

        when the pip version in use is older than version 7.1
      - ansible-test change detection - Run only sanity tests on ``docs/`` and ``changelogs/``
        in collections, to avoid triggering full CI runs of integration and unit tests
        when files in these directories change.

      - ansible-test no longer fails when downloading test results for a collection
        without a ``tests`` directory when using the ``--docker`` option.
      - ansible-test no longer optimizes setting ``PATH`` by prepending the directory

        avoids unintentionally making other programs available on ``PATH``, including
        an already installed version of Ansible.
      - ansible-test no longer tracebacks during change analysis due to processing
        an empty python file
      - ansible-test no longer tries to install ``coverage`` 5.0+ since those versions

        unit and integration tests instead of the requirements specified for Ansible's
        own unit and integration tests
      - ansible-test now correctly recognizes imports in collections when using the
        ``--changed`` option.
      - ansible-test now correctly rewrites coverage paths for PowerShell files when
        testing collections
      - ansible-test now creates its integration test temporary directory within the
        collection so ansible-playbook can properly detect the default collection
      - ansible-test now enables color ``ls`` on a remote host only if the host supports
        the feature
      - ansible-test now ignores empty ``*.py`` files when analyzing module_utils
        imports for change detection
      - ansible-test now ignores version control within subdirectories of collections.
        Previously this condition was an error.
      - ansible-test now ignores warnings when comparing pip versions before and after
        integration tests run
      - ansible-test now installs sanity test requirements specific to each test instead
        of installing requirements for all sanity tests
      - ansible-test now installs the correct version of ``cryptography`` with ``--requirements``
        or delegation when setuptools is older than version 18.5
      - ansible-test now limits Jinja2 installs to version 2.10 and earlier on Python
        2.6
      - ansible-test now limits ``pathspec`` to versions prior to 0.6.0 on Python
        2.6 to avoid installation errors
      - ansible-test now limits installation of ``hcloud`` to Python 2.7 and 3.5 -
        3.8 since other versions are unsupported
      - ansible-test now limits the version of ``setuptools`` on Python 2.6 to versions
        older than 37
      - ansible-test now loads the collection loader plugin early enough for ansible_collections
        imports to work in unit test conftest.py modules
      - ansible-test now preserves existing SSH authorized keys when provisioning
        a remote host
      - ansible-test now properly activates the vcenter plugin for vcenter tests when
        docker is available
      - ansible-test now properly activates virtual environments created using the
        --venv option
      - ansible-test now properly creates a virtual environment using ``venv`` when
        running in a ``virtualenv`` created virtual environment
      - ansible-test now properly excludes the ``tests/output/`` directory from code
        coverage
      - ansible-test now properly handles creation of Python execv wrappers when the
        selected interpreter is a script
      - ansible-test now properly handles enumeration of git submodules. Enumeration
        is now done with ``git submodule status --recursive`` without specifying ``.``
        for the path, since that could cause the command to fail. Instead, relative
        paths outside the current directory are filtered out of the results. Errors
        from ``git`` commands will now once again be reported as errors instead of
        warnings.

        when looking for the real python that created a ``virtualenv``
      - ansible-test now properly sets PYTHONPATH for tests when running from an Ansible
        installation
      - ansible-test now properly sets ``ANSIBLE_PLAYBOOK_DIR`` for integration tests
        so unqualified collection references work for adhoc ``ansible`` usage
      - ansible-test now properly uses a fresh copy of environment variables for each
        command invocation to avoid mixing vars between commands
      - ansible-test now shows sanity test doc links when installed (previously the
        links were only visible when running from source)
      - ansible-test now shows the correct source path instead of ``%s`` for collection
        role based test targets when the ``-v`` option is used
      - ansible-test now supports submodules using older ``git`` versions which require
        querying status from the top level directory of the repo.
      - ansible-test now updates SSH keys it generates with newer versions of ssh-keygen
        to function with Paramiko
      - ansible-test now upgrades ``pip`` with `--requirements`` or delegation as
        needed when the pip version in use is older than version 7.1
      - ansible-test now uses GNU tar format instead of the Python default when creating
        payloads for remote systems
      - ansible-test now uses ``pycodestyle`` frozen at version 2.6.0 for consistent
        test results.
      - ansible-test now uses modules from the ``ansible.windows`` collection for
        setup and teardown of ``windows-integration`` tests and code coverage
      - ansible-test once again properly collects code coverage for ``ansible-connection``
      - ansible-test validate-modules - Fix arg spec collector for PowerShell to find
        utils in both a collection and base.
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test code ``missing-module-utils-import-c#-requirements``
        is now ``missing-module-utils-import-csharp-requirements`` (fixes ignore bug).
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test code ``multiple-c#-utils-per-requires``
        is now ``multiple-csharp-utils-per-requires`` (fixes ignore bug).
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test now checks for AnsibleModule initialization
        instead of module_utils imports, which did not work in many cases.
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test now properly handles collections
        imports using the Ansible collection loader.
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test now properly handles relative imports.
      - ansible-test validate-modules sanity test now properly handles sys.exit in

      - apt - Fixed the issue the cache being updated while auto-installing its dependencies
        even when ``update_cache`` is set to false.
      - assemble module - fix documentation - the remote_src property specified a
        default value of no but it's actually yes.
      - avoid fatal traceback when a bad FQCN for a callback is supplied in the whitelist
        (#69401).
      - become - Fix various plugins that still used play_context to get the become
        password instead of through the plugin - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/62367

        builtin plugin inside a role is selected (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65298)
      - collections - Handle errors better for filters and tests in collections, where
        a non-existent collection is specified, or importing the plugin results in
        an exception (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66721)
      - combine filter - ``[dict1, [dict2]] | combine`` now raise an error; previously
        ``combine`` had an undocumented behaviour where it was flattening the list
        before combining it (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/57894#discussion_r339517518).
      - config - encoding failures on config values should be non-fatal (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63310)

        to ``with_`` style loops. The items from ``loop`` should not be explicitly
        wrapped in unsafe. The underlying templating mechanism should dictate this.
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64379)
      - make ``no_log=False`` on a module option silence the ``no_log`` warning (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49465

      - win_exec_wrapper - Be more defensive when it comes to getting unhandled exceptions
      - win_package - Handle quoted and unquoted strings in the registry ``UninstallString``
        value - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/40973
      - 'win_uri win_get_url - Fix the behaviour of ``follow_redirects: safe`` to
        actual redirect on ``GET`` and ``HEAD`` requests - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65556'

      deprecated_features:
      - Using the DefaultCallback without the correspodning doc_fragment or copying
        the documentation.
      - hash_behaviour - Deprecate ``hash_behaviour`` for future removal.
      - script inventory plugin - The 'cache' option is deprecated and will be removed
        in 2.12. Its use has been removed from the plugin since it has never had any
        effect.
      major_changes:
      - Both ansible-doc and ansible-console's help command will error for modules
        and plugins whose return documentation cannot be parsed as YAML. All modules
        and plugins passing ``ansible-test sanity --test yamllint`` will not be affected
        by this.
      - Collections may declare a list of supported/tested Ansible versions for the
        collection. A warning is issued if a collection does not support the Ansible
        version that loads it (can also be configured as silent or a fatal error).
        Collections that do not declare supported Ansible versions do not issue a
        warning/error.
      - Plugin routing allows collections to declare deprecation, redirection targets,
        and removals for all plugin types.
      - Plugins that import module_utils and other ansible namespaces that have moved
        to collections should continue to work unmodified.
      - Routing data built into Ansible 2.10 ensures that 2.9 content should work
        unmodified on 2.10. Formerly included modules and plugins that were moved
        to collections are still accessible by their original unqualified names, so
        long as their destination collections are installed.
      - When deprecations are done in code, they to specify a ``collection_name``
        so that deprecation warnings can mention which collection - or ansible-base
        - is deprecating a feature. This affects all ``Display.deprecated()`` or ``AnsibleModule.deprecate()``
        or ``Ansible.Basic.Deprecate()`` calls, and ``removed_in_version``/``removed_at_date``
        or ``deprecated_aliases`` in module argument specs.
      - ansible-test now uses a different ``default`` test container for Ansible Collections
      minor_changes:
      - '''Edit on GitHub'' link for plugin, cli documentation fixed to navigate to
        correct plugin, cli source.'
      - Add 'auth_url' field to galaxy server config stanzas in ansible.cfg The url
        should point to the token_endpoint of a Keycloak server.
      - Add --ask-vault-password and --vault-pass-file options to ansible cli commands
      - Add ``--pre`` flag to ``ansible-galaxy collection install`` to allow pulling
        in the most recent pre-release version of a collection (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64905)
      - Add a global toggle to control when vars plugins are executed (per task by
        default for backward compatibility or after importing inventory).
      - Add a new config parameter, WIN_ASYNC_STARTUP_TIMEOUT, which allows configuration
        of the named pipe connection timeout under Windows when launching async tasks.
      - Add a per-plugin stage option to override the global toggle to control the
        execution of individual vars plugins (per task, after inventory, or both).
      - Add an additional check for importing journal from systemd-python module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/60595).
      - Add new magic variable ``ansible_collection`` that contains the collection
        name
      - Add new magic variable ``ansible_role_name`` that contains the FQCN of the
        role
      - Added PopOS as a part of Debian OS distribution family (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69286).
      - Added hostname support for PopOS in hostname module.
      - Added openEuler OS in RedHat OS Family.
      - Added the ability to set ``DEFAULT_NO_TARGET_SYSLOG`` through the ``ansible_no_target_syslog``
        variable on a task
      - Ansible CLI fails with warning if extra_vars parameter is used with filename
        without @ sign (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/51857).
      - Ansible modules created with ``add_file_common_args=True`` added a number
        of undocumented arguments which were mostly there to ease implementing certain
        action plugins. The undocumented arguments ``src``, ``follow``, ``force``,
        ``content``, ``backup``, ``remote_src``, ``regexp``, ``delimiter``, and ``directory_mode``
        are now no longer added. Modules relying on these options to be added need
        to specify them by themselves. Also, action plugins relying on these extra
        elements in ``FILE_COMMON_ARGUMENTS`` need to be adjusted.
      - Ansible now allows deprecation by date instead of deprecation by version.
        This is possible for plugins and modules (``meta/runtime.yml`` and ``deprecated.removed_at_date``
        in ``DOCUMENTATION``, instead of ``deprecated.removed_in``), for plugin options
        (``deprecated.date`` instead of ``deprecated.version`` in ``DOCUMENTATION``),
        for module options (``removed_at_date`` instead of ``removed_in_version``
        in argument spec), and for module option aliases (``deprecated_aliases.date``
        instead of ``deprecated_aliases.version`` in argument spec).
      - Ansible should fail with error when non-existing limit file is provided in
        command line.
      - Ansible.Basic - Added the ability to specify multiple fragments to load in
        a generic way for modules that use a module_util with fragment options
      - Ansible.Basic.cs - Added support for ``deprecated_aliases`` to deprecated
        aliases in a standard way
      - Ansible.ModuleUtils.WebRequest - Move username and password aliases out of
        util to avoid option name collision
      - Change order of arguments in ansible cli to use --ask-vault-password and --vault-password-file
        by default
      - CollectionRequirement - Add a metadata property to update and retrieve the
        _metadata attribute.
      - Enable Ansible Collections loader to discover and import collections from
        ``site-packages`` dir and ``PYTHONPATH``-added locations.
      - Enable testing the AIX platform as a remote OS in ansible-test
      - Flatten the directory hierarchy of modules
      - Ignore plesk-release file while parsing distribution release (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64101).
      - Openstack inventory script is migrated to ansible-openstack-collection, adjusted
        the link in documentation accordingly.
      - Openstack inventory script is moved to openstack.cloud from community.general.
      - PowerShell Add-Type - Add an easier way to reference extra types when compiling
        C# code on PowerShell Core
      - PowerShell Add-Type - Added the ``X86`` and ``AMD64`` preprocessor symbols
        for conditional compiling
      - Prevent losing useful error information by including both the loop and the
        conditional error messages (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66529)
      - Provides additional information about collection namespace name restrictions
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65151).
      - Raise error when no task file is provided to import_tasks (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/54095).
      - Refactor test_distribution_version testcases.
      - Remove the deprecation message for the ``TRANSFORM_INVALID_GROUP_CHARS`` setting.
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61889)
      - Removed extras_require support from setup.py (and [azure] extra). Requirements
        will float with the collections, so it's not appropriate for ansible-base
        to host requirements for them any longer.
      - Simplify dict2items filter example in loop documentation (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65505).
      - Templating - Add globals to the jinja2 environment at ``Templar`` instantiation,
        instead of customizing the template object. Only customize the template object,
        to disable lookups. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/69278)
      - Templating - Add support to auto unroll generators produced by jinja2 filters,
        to prevent the need of explicit use of ``|list`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/68014)
      - The results queue and counter for results are now split for standard / handler
        results. This allows the governing strategy to be truly independent from the
        handler strategy, which basically follows the linear methodology.
      - Update required library message with correct grammer in basic.py.
      - Updated inventory script location for EC2, Openstack, and Cobbler after collection
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68897).
      - Updated inventory script location for infoblox, ec2 and other after collection
        migration (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69139).
      - Updates ``ansible_role_names``, ``ansible_play_role_names``, and ``ansible_dependent_role_names``
        to include the FQCN
      - Use OrderedDict by default when importing mappings from YAML.
      - Windows - Add a check for the minimum PowerShell version so we can create
        a friendly error message on older hosts
      - Windows - add deprecation notice in the Windows setup module when running
        on Server 2008, 2008 R2, and Windows 7
      - '`AnsibleModule.fail_json()` has always required that a message be passed
        in which informs the end user why the module failed.  In the past this message
        had to be passed as the `msg` keyword argument but it can now be passed as
        the first positional argument instead.'
      - '``AnsibleModule.load_file_common_arguments`` now allows to simply override
        ``path``.'
      - add mechanism for storing warnings and deprecations globally and not attached
        to an ``AnsibleModule`` object (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/58993)
      - added more ways to configure new uri options in 2.10.
      - ansible-doc - improve suboptions formatting (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/69795).
      - ansible-doc - now indicates if an option is added by a doc fragment from another
        collection by prepending the collection name, or ``ansible.builtin`` for ansible-base,
        to the version number.
      - ansible-doc - return values will be properly formatted (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/69796).
      - ansible-galaxy - Add ``download`` option for ``ansible-galaxy collection``
        to download collections and their dependencies for an offline install
      - ansible-galaxy - Add a `verify` subcommand to `ansible-galaxy collection`.
        The collection found on the galaxy server is downloaded to a tempfile to compare
        the checksums of the files listed in the MANIFEST.json and the FILES.json
        with the contents of the installed collection.
      - ansible-galaxy - Added the ability to display the progress wheel through the
        C.GALAXY_DISPLAY_PROGRESS config option. Also this now defaults to displaying
        the progress wheel if stdout has a tty.
      - ansible-galaxy - Added the ability to ignore further files and folders using
        a pattern with the ``build_ignore`` key in a collection's ``galaxy.yml`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59228).
      - ansible-galaxy - Allow installing collections from git repositories.
      - ansible-galaxy - Always ignore the ``tests/output`` directory when building
        a collection as it is used by ``ansible-test`` for test output (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59228).
      - ansible-galaxy - Display message if both collections and roles are specified
        in a requirements file but can't be installed together.
      - ansible-galaxy - Install both collections and roles with ``ansible-galaxy
        install -r requirements.yml`` in certain scenarios.
      - ansible-galaxy - Requirement entries for collections now support a 'type'
        key to indicate whether the collection is a galaxy artifact, file, url, or
        git repo.
      - ansible-galaxy - Support both 'galaxy.yml' and 'galaxy.yaml' files for collections.

      - ansible-test - ``validate-modules`` now also accepts an ISO 8601 formatted
        date as ``deprecated.removed_at_date``, instead of requiring a version number
        in ``deprecated.removed_in``.
      - ansible-test - ``validate-modules`` now makes sure that module documentation
        deprecation removal version and/or date matches with removal version and/or
        date in meta/runtime.yml.
      - ansible-test - ``validate-modules`` now validates all version numbers in documentation
        and argument spec. Version numbers for collections are checked for being valid
        semantic versioning version number strings.
      - ansible-test - add ``validate-modules`` tests for ``removed_in_version`` and
        ``deprecated_aliases`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/66920/).

        <https://pypi.org/project/antsibull-changelog/>`_ configuration or files in
        ``changelogs/fragments/`` are found (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/69313).
      - ansible-test - allow delegation config to specify equivalents to the ``--no-pip-check``,
        ``--disable-httptester`` and `--no-temp-unicode`` options
      - ansible-test - allow sanity tests to check for optional errors by specifying
        ``--enable-optional-errors`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/66920/).
      - ansible-test - also run the ``ansible-doc`` sanity test with ``--json`` to
        ensure that the documentation does not contain something that cannot be exported
        as JSON (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69238).
      - ansible-test - enable deprecated version testing for modules and ``module.deprecate()``
        calls (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/66920/).
      - ansible-test - extend alias validation.

        under podman
      - ansible-test - improve module validation so that ``default``, ``sample`` and
        ``example`` contain JSON values and not arbitrary YAML values, like ``datetime``
        objects or dictionaries with non-string keys.
      - ansible-test - module validation will now consider arguments added by ``add_file_common_arguments=True``
        correctly.
      - ansible-test - switch from testing RHEL 8.0 and RHEL 8.1 Beta to RHEL 8.1
      - ansible-test - the argument spec of modules is now validated by a YAML schema.
      - ansible-test - the module validation code now checks whether ``elements``
        documentation for options matches the argument_spec.
      - ansible-test - the module validation code now checks whether ``elements``
        is defined when ``type=list``
      - ansible-test - the module validation code now checks whether ``requirement``
        for options is documented correctly.
      - ansible-test add pyparsing constraint for Python 2.x to avoid compatibility
        issues with the upcoming pyparsing 3 release
      - ansible-test defaults to redacting sensitive values (disable with the ``--no-redact``
        option)
      - ansible-test has been updated to use ``default-test-container:1.13`` which
        includes fewer Python requirements now that most modules and tests have been
        migrated to collections.
      - ansible-test no longer detects ``git`` submodule directories as files.
      - ansible-test no longer provides a ``--tox`` option. Use the ``--venv`` option

        available for Ansible Collections or when running from an Ansible install.
      - ansible-test no longer tries to install sanity test dependencies on unsupported
        Python versions
      - ansible-test now checks for the minimum and maximum supported versions when
        importing ``coverage``
      - ansible-test now filters out unnecessary warnings and messages from pip when
        installing its own requirements
      - ansible-test now has a ``--list-files`` option to list files using the ``env``
        command.
      - ansible-test now includes the ``pylint`` plugin ``mccabe`` in optional sanity
        tests enabled with ``--enable-optional-errors``
      - ansible-test now places the ansible source and collections content in separate
        directories when using the ``--docker`` or ``--remote`` options.
      - ansible-test now provides a more helpful error when loading coverage files
        created by ``coverage`` version 5 or later
      - ansible-test now supports provisioning of network resources when testing network
        collections
      - ansible-test now supports skip aliases in the format ``skip/{arch}/{platform}``
        and ``skip/{arch}/{platform}/{version}`` where ``arch`` can be ``power``.
        These aliases are only effective for the ``--remote`` option.
      - ansible-test now supports skip aliases in the format ``skip/{platform}/{version}``
        for the ``--remote`` option. This is preferred over the older ``skip/{platform}{version}``
        format which included no ``/`` between the platform and version.
      - ansible-test now supports testing against RHEL 7.8 when using the ``--remote``
        option.
      - ansible-test now supports the ``--remote power/centos/7`` platform option.
      - ansible-test now validates the schema of ansible_builtin_runtime.yml and a
        collections meta/runtime.yml file.
      - ansible-test provides clearer error messages when failing to detect the provider
        to use with the ``--remote`` option.
      - ansible-test provisioning of network devices for ``network-integration`` has
        been updated to use collections.
      - ansible_native_concat() - use ``to_text`` function rather than Jinja2's ``text_type``
        which has been removed in Jinja2 master branch.
      - apt - Implemented an exponential backoff behaviour when retrying to update
        the cache with new params ``update_cache_retry_max_delay`` and ``update_cache_retries``
        to control the behavior.
      - apt_repository - Implemented an exponential backoff behaviour when retrying
        to update the apt cache with new params ``update_cache_retry_max_delay`` and
        ``update_cache_retries`` to control the behavior.
      - blockinfile - Update module documentation to clarify insertbefore/insertafter
        usage.
      - callbacks - Allow modules to return `None` as before/after entries for diff.
        This should make it easier for modules to report the "not existing" state
        of the entity they touched.
      - combine filter - now accept a ``list_merge`` argument which modifies its behaviour
        when the hashes to merge contain arrays/lists.

        be added to head of sys.path at ansible package load
      - file - specifying ``src`` without ``state`` is now an error
      - get_bin_path() - change the interface to always raise ``ValueError`` if the
        command is not found (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/56813)
      - get_url - Remove deprecated string format support for the headers option (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61891)
      - git - added an ``archive_prefix`` option to set a prefix to add to each file
        path in archive
      - host_group_vars plugin - Require whitelisting and whitelist by default.
      - new magic variable - ``ansible_config_file`` - full path of used Ansible config
        file
      - package_facts.py - Add support for Pacman package manager.
      - plugin loader - Add MODULE_IGNORE_EXTS config option to skip over certain

      - 'rename ``_find_existing_collections()`` to ``find_existing_collections()``
        to reflect its use across multiple files

        '
      - reorganized code for the ``ansible-test coverage`` command for easier maintenance
        and feature additions
      - service_facts - Added undocumented 'indirect' and 'static' as service status
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69752).
      - ssh - connection plugin now supports a new variable ``sshpass_prompt`` which
        gets passed to ``sshpass`` allowing the user to set a custom substring to
        search for a password prompt (requires sshpass 1.06+)
      - systemd - default scope is now explicitly "system"
      - tests - Add new ``truthy`` and ``falsy`` jinja2 tests to evaluate the truthiness
        or falsiness of a value
      - to_nice_json filter - Removed now-useless exception handler
      - to_uuid - add a named parameter to let the user optionally set a custom namespace

      - user - allow groups, append parameters with local
      - 'user - usage of ``append: True`` without setting a list of groups. This is
        currently a no-op with a warning, and will change to an error in 2.14. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/65795)'
      - validate-modules checks for deprecated in collections against meta/runtime.yml

      removed_features:
      - core - remove support for ``check_invalid_arguments`` in ``AnsibleModule``,
        ``AzureModule`` and ``UTMModule``.
      security_fixes:
      - '**security issue** - Convert CLI provided passwords to text initially, to
        prevent unsafe context being lost when converting from bytes->text during
        post processing of PlayContext. This prevents CLI provided passwords from
        being incorrectly templated (CVE-2019-14856)

        '
      - '**security issue** - Redact cloud plugin secrets in ansible-test when running
        integration tests using cloud plugins. Only present in 2.9.0b1.

        '
      - '**security issue** - TaskExecutor - Ensure we don''t erase unsafe context
        in TaskExecutor.run on bytes. Only present in 2.9.0beta1 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/62237)

        '
      - '**security issue** - The ``subversion`` module provided the password via
        the svn command line option ``--password`` and can be retrieved from the host''s
        /proc/<pid>/cmdline file. Update the module to use the secure ``--password-from-stdin``
        option instead, and add a warning in the module and in the documentation if
        svn version is too old to support it. (CVE-2020-1739)

        '
      - '**security issue** - Update ``AnsibleUnsafeText`` and ``AnsibleUnsafeBytes``
        to maintain unsafe context by overriding ``.encode`` and ``.decode``. This
        prevents future issues with ``to_text``, ``to_bytes``, or ``to_native`` removing
        the unsafe wrapper when converting between string types (CVE-2019-14856)
