- ansible-test - Moved git handling out of the validate-modules sanity test and into ansible-test.
- ansible-test - Removed the ``--keep-git`` sanity test option, which was limited to testing ansible-core itself.
- ansible-test - Updated the Azure Pipelines CI plugin to work with newer versions of git.
Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
--------------------------------
- ansible-test - Integration tests which depend on specific file permissions when running in an ansible-test managed host environment may require changes. Tests that require permissions other than ``755`` or ``644`` may need to be updated to set the necessary permissions as part of the test run.
Bugfixes
--------
- Fix ``MANIFEST.in`` to exclude unwanted files in the ``packaging/`` directory.
- Fix ``MANIFEST.in`` to include ``*.md`` files in the ``test/support/`` directory.
- Fix an issue where the value of ``become`` was ignored when used on a role used as a dependency in ``main/meta.yml`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79777)
- ``ansible_eval_concat`` - avoid redundant unsafe wrapping of templated strings converted to Python types
- ansible-galaxy role info - fix unhandled AttributeError by catching the correct exception.
- ansible-test - Always indicate the Python version being used before installing requirements. Resolves issue https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/72855
- ansible-test - Integration test target prefixes defined in a ``tests/integration/target-prefixes.{group}`` file can now contain an underscore (``_``) character. Resolves issue https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79225
- ansible-test - Removed pointless comparison in diff evaluation logic.
- ansible-test - Set ``PYLINTHOME`` for the ``pylint`` sanity test to prevent failures due to ``pylint`` checking for the existence of an obsolete home directory.
- ansible-test - Support loading of vendored Python packages from ansible-core.
- ansible-test - Use consistent file permissions when delegating tests to a container or remote host. Files with any execute bit set will use permissions ``755``. All other files will use permissions ``644``. (Resolves issue https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75079)
- copy - fix creating the dest directory in check mode with remote_src=True (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78611).
- copy - fix reporting changes to file attributes in check mode with remote_src=True (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77957).
