    changes:
      breaking_changes:
      - The environment variable for the auth context for the oc.py connection plugin
        has been corrected (K8S_CONTEXT).  It was using an initial lowercase k by
        mistake. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/377).
      - bigpanda - the parameter ``message`` was renamed to ``deployment_message``
        since ``message`` is used by Ansible Core engine internally.
      - cisco_spark - the module option ``message`` was renamed to ``msg``, as ``message``
        is used internally in Ansible Core engine (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/39295)
      - datadog - the parameter ``message`` was renamed to ``notification_message``
        since ``message`` is used by Ansible Core engine internally.
      - 'docker_container - no longer passes information on non-anonymous volumes
        or binds as ``Volumes`` to the Docker daemon. This increases compatibility
        with the ``docker`` CLI program. Note that if you specify ``volumes: strict``
        in ``comparisons``, this could cause existing containers created with docker_container
        from Ansible 2.9 or earlier to restart.'
      - 'docker_container - support for port ranges was adjusted to be more compatible
        to the ``docker`` command line utility: a one-port container range combined
        with a multiple-port host range will no longer result in only the first host
        port be used, but the whole range being passed to Docker so that a free port
        in that range will be used.'
      - hashi_vault lookup - now returns the latest version when using the KV v2 secrets
        engine. Previously, it returned all versions of the secret which required
        additional steps to extract and filter the desired version.
      bugfixes:
      - Convert MD5SUM to lowercase before comparison in maven_artifact module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/186).

        >= 1.13.0 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64770)
      - Fix SSL protocol references in the ``mqtt`` module to prevent failures on
        Python 2.6.
      - Fix the ``xml`` module to use ``list(elem)`` instead of ``elem.getchildren()``
        since it is being removed in Python 3.9
      - Fix to return XML as a string even for python3 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/64032).
      - Fixes the url handling in lxd_container module that url cannot be specified
        in lxd environment created by snap.
      - Fixes the url handling in lxd_profile module that url cannot be specified
        in lxd environment created by snap.
      - Redact GitLab Project variables which might include sensetive information
        such as password, api_keys and other project related details.
      - Run command in absent state in atomic_image module.
      - While deleting gitlab user, name, email and password is no longer required
        ini gitlab_user module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/61921).
      - airbrake_deployment - Allow deploy notifications for Airbrake compatible v2
        api (e.g. Errbit)
      - apt_rpm - fix ``package`` type from ``str`` to ``list`` to fix invoking with
        list of packages (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/143).

        instead of the hardcoded /usr/bin/crontab. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/59765)
      - cyberarkpassword - fix invalid attribute access (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66268)
      - datadog_monitor - Corrects ``_update_monitor`` to use ``notification_message``
        insteade of deprecated ``message`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/389).
      - datadog_monitor - added missing ``log alert`` type to ``type`` choices (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/251).

      - docker_login - Use ``with`` statement when accessing files, to prevent that
        invalid JSON output is produced.
      - docker_login - correct broken fix for https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/60381
        which crashes for Python 3.

        specified when ``state`` is ``present``.
      - docker_login - make sure that ``~/.docker/config.json`` is created with permissions
        ``0600``.
      - docker_machine - fallback to ip subcommand output if IPAddress is missing
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/412).
      - docker_network - fix idempotence comparison error.
      - docker_network - fix idempotency for multiple IPAM configs of the same IP
        version (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65815).
      - docker_network - validate IPAM config subnet CIDR notation on module setup
        and not during idempotence checking.
      - docker_node_info - improve error handling when service inspection fails, for
        example because node name being ambiguous (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63353,

      - hashi_vault - if used via ``with_hashi_vault`` and a list of n secrets to
        retrieve, only the first one would be retrieved and returned n times.
      - hashi_vault - when a non-token authentication method like ldap or userpass
        failed, but a valid token was loaded anyway (via env or token file), the token
        was used to attempt authentication, hiding the failure of the requested auth

      - clc_aa_policy - The ``wait`` option had no effect and will be removed in community.general
        3.0.0.
      - clc_aa_policy - the ``wait`` parameter will be removed. It has always been
        ignored by the module.
      - docker_container - the ``trust_image_content`` option is now deprecated and
        will be removed in community.general 3.0.0. It has never been used by the
        module.
      - docker_container - the ``trust_image_content`` option will be removed. It
        has always been ignored by the module.
      - docker_container - the default of ``container_default_behavior`` will change
        from ``compatibility`` to ``no_defaults`` in community.general 3.0.0. Set
        the option to an explicit value to avoid a deprecation warning.
      - docker_container - the default value for ``network_mode`` will change in community.general
        3.0.0, provided at least one network is specified and ``networks_cli_compatible``
        is ``true``. See porting guide, module documentation or deprecation warning
        for more details.
      - docker_stack - Return values ``out`` and ``err`` have been deprecated and
        will be removed in community.general 3.0.0. Use ``stdout`` and ``stderr``
        instead.
      - docker_stack - the return values ``err`` and ``out`` have been deprecated.
        Use ``stdout`` and ``stderr`` from now on instead.
      - helm - Put ``helm`` module to deprecated. New implementation is available
        in community.kubernetes collection.
      - redfish_config - Deprecate ``bios_attribute_name`` and ``bios_attribute_value``
        in favor of new `bios_attributes`` option.
      - redfish_config - the ``bios_attribute_name`` and ``bios_attribute_value``
        options will be removed. To maintain the existing behavior use the ``bios_attributes``
        option instead.
      - redfish_config and redfish_command - the behavior to select the first System,
        Manager, or Chassis resource to modify when multiple are present will be removed.
        Use the new ``resource_id`` option to specify target resource to modify.
      - redfish_config, redfish_command - Behavior to modify the first System, Mananger,
        or Chassis resource when multiple are present is deprecated. Use the new ``resource_id``
        option to specify target resource to modify.
      major_changes:
      - docker_container - the ``network_mode`` option will be set by default to the
        name of the first network in ``networks`` if at least one network is given
        and ``networks_cli_compatible`` is ``true`` (will be default from community.general
        2.0.0 on). Set to an explicit value to avoid deprecation warnings if you specify
        networks and set ``networks_cli_compatible`` to ``true``. The current default
        (not specifying it) is equivalent to the value ``default``.
      - docker_container - the module has a new option, ``container_default_behavior``,
        whose default value will change from ``compatibility`` to ``no_defaults``.
        Set to an explicit value to avoid deprecation warnings.
      - gitlab_user - no longer requires ``name``, ``email`` and ``password`` arguments
        when ``state=absent``.

      - A new filter ``to_time_unit`` with specializations ``to_milliseconds``, ``to_seconds``,
        ``to_minutes``, ``to_hours``, ``to_days``, ``to_weeks``, ``to_months`` and
        ``to_years`` has been added. For example ``'2d 4h' | community.general.to_hours``
        evaluates to 52.
      - Add a make option to the make module to be able to choose a specific make
        executable
      - Add information about changed packages in homebrew returned facts (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/59376).
      - Follow up changes in homebrew_cask (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/34696).
      - Moved OpenStack dynamic inventory script to Openstack Collection.
      - Remove redundant encoding in json.load call in ipa module_utils (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66592).
      - Updated documentation about netstat command requirement for listen_ports_facts
        module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/68077).
      - airbrake_deployment - Allow passing ``project_id`` and ``project_key`` for
        v4 api deploy compatibility
      - ali_instance - Add params ``unique_suffix``, ``tags``, ``purge_tags``, ``ram_role_name``,
        ``spot_price_limit``, ``spot_strategy``, ``period_unit``, ``dry_run``, ``include_data_disks``
      - ali_instance and ali_instance_info - the required package footmark needs a
        version higher than 1.19.0
      - ali_instance_info - Add params ``name_prefix``, ``filters``
      - alicloud modules - Add authentication params to all modules
      - alicloud modules - now only support Python 3.6, not support Python 2.x
      - cisco_spark - the module has been renamed to ``cisco_webex`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/457).
      - cloudflare_dns - Report unexpected failure with more detail (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/511).
      - database - add support to unique indexes in postgresql_idx
      - digital_ocean_droplet - add support for new vpc_uuid parameter
      - docker connection plugin - run Powershell modules on Windows containers.
      - docker_container - add ``cpus`` option (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/34320).
      - docker_container - add new ``container_default_behavior`` option (PR https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/63419).
      - docker_container - allow to configure timeout when the module waits for a
        container's removal.
      - 'docker_container - only passes anonymous volumes to docker daemon as ``Volumes``.
        This increases compatibility with the ``docker`` CLI program. Note that if
        you specify ``volumes: strict`` in ``comparisons``, this could cause existing
        containers created with docker_container from Ansible 2.9 or earlier to restart.'
      - 'docker_container - support for port ranges was adjusted to be more compatible
        to the ``docker`` command line utility: a one-port container range combined
        with a multiple-port host range will no longer result in only the first host
        port be used, but the whole range being passed to Docker so that a free port
        in that range will be used.'
      - docker_container.py - update a containers restart_policy without restarting
        the container (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65993)
      - docker_stack - Added ``stdout``, ``stderr``, and ``rc`` to return values.
      - docker_swarm_service - Added support for ``init`` option.

      - flatpak and flatpak_remote - use ``module.run_command()`` instead of ``subprocess.Popen()``.
      - gitlab_project_variable - implement masked and protected attributes
      - gitlab_project_variable - implemented variable_type attribute.
      - hashi_vault - AWS IAM auth method added. Accepts standard ansible AWS params
        and only loads AWS libraries when needed.
      - hashi_vault - INI and additional ENV sources made available for some new and
        old options.
      - hashi_vault - ``secret`` can now be an unnamed argument if it's specified
        first in the term string (see examples).
      - hashi_vault - ``token`` is now an explicit option (and the default) in the
        choices for ``auth_method``. This matches previous behavior (``auth_method``
        omitted resulted in token auth) but makes the value clearer and allows it
        to be explicitly specified.
      - hashi_vault - new option ``return_format`` added to control how secrets are
        returned, including options for multiple secrets and returning raw values
        with metadata.
      - hashi_vault - previous (undocumented) behavior was to attempt to read token
        from ``~/.vault-token`` if not specified. This is now controlled through ``token_path``
        and ``token_file`` options (defaults will mimic previous behavior).
      - hashi_vault - previously all options had to be supplied via key=value pairs
        in the term string; now a mix of string and parameters can be specified (see
        examples).
      - hashi_vault - uses newer authentication calls in the HVAC library and falls
        back to older ones with deprecation warnings.
      - homebrew - Added environment variable to honor update_homebrew setting (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/56650).
      - homebrew - New option ``upgrade_options`` allows to pass flags to upgrade
      - homebrew - ``install_options`` is now validated to be a list of strings.
      - homebrew_tap - ``name`` is now validated to be a list of strings.

      release_summary: 'This is the first proper release of the ``community.general``
        collection on 2020-06-20.

        The changelog describes all changes made to the modules and plugins included
        in this

        collection since Ansible 2.9.0.

        '
      removed_features:
      - core - remove support for ``check_invalid_arguments`` in ``UTMModule``.
      - pacman - Removed deprecated ``recurse`` option, use ``extra_args=--recursive``
        instead
      security_fixes:
      - '**SECURITY** - CVE-2019-14904 - solaris_zone module accepts zone name and
        performs actions related to that. However, there is no user input validation
        done while performing actions. A malicious user could provide a crafted zone
        name which allows executing commands into the server manipulating the module
        behaviour. Adding user input validation as per Solaris Zone documentation
        fixes this issue.'
      - '**security issue** - Ansible: Splunk and Sumologic callback plugins leak
        sensitive data in logs (CVE-2019-14864)'
      - 'ldap_attr, ldap_entry - The ``params`` option has been removed in Ansible-2.10
        as it circumvents Ansible''s option handling.  Setting ``bind_pw`` with the
        ``params`` option was disallowed in Ansible-2.7, 2.8, and 2.9 as it was insecure.  For
        information about this policy, see the discussion at: https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/ansible-meeting/2017-09-28/ansible_dev_meeting.2017-09-28-15.00.log.html

    changes:
      breaking_changes:
      - log_plays callback - add missing information to the logs generated by the
        callback plugin. This changes the log message format (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/442).
      - 'pkgng - passing ``name: *`` with ``state: absent`` will no longer remove
        every installed package from the system. It is now a noop. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/569).'
      - 'pkgng - passing ``name: *`` with ``state: latest`` or ``state: present``
        will no longer install every package from the configured package repositories.
        Instead, ``name: *, state: latest`` will upgrade all already-installed packages,
        and ``name: *, state: present`` is a noop. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/569).'
      bugfixes:
      - aix_filesystem - fix issues with ismount module_util pathing for Ansible 2.9
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/567).
      - consul_kv lookup - fix ``ANSIBLE_CONSUL_URL`` environment variable handling
        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/51960).
      - consul_kv lookup - fix arguments handling (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/303).
      - digital_ocean_tag_info - fix crash when querying for an individual tag (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/615).
      - doas become plugin - address a bug with the parameters handling that was breaking
        the plugin in community.general when ``become_flags`` and ``become_user``
        were not explicitly specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/704).
      - docker_compose - add a condition to prevent service startup if parameter ``stopped``
        is true. Otherwise, the service will be started on each play and stopped again
        immediately due to the ``stopped`` parameter and breaks the idempotency of
        the module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/532).
      - docker_compose - disallow usage of the parameters ``stopped`` and ``restarted``
        at the same time. This breaks also the idempotency (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/532).
      - docker_container - use Config MacAddress by default instead of Networks. Networks
        MacAddress is empty in some cases (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70206).
      - docker_container - various error fixes in string handling for Python 2 to
        avoid crashes when non-ASCII characters are used in strings (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/640).
      - docker_swarm - removes ``advertise_addr`` from list of required arguments
        when ``state`` is ``"join"`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/439).
      - dzdo become plugin - address a bug with the parameters handling that was breaking
        the plugin in community.general when ``become_user`` was not explicitly specified
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/708).
      - filesystem - resizefs of xfs filesystems is fixed. Filesystem needs to be
        mounted.
      - jenkins_plugin - replace MD5 checksum verification with SHA1 due to MD5 being
        disabled on systems with FIPS-only algorithms enabled (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/34304).
      - jira - improve error message handling (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/311).
      - jira - improve error message handling with multiple errors (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/707).
      - kubevirt - Add aliases 'interface_name' for network_name (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/55641).
      - nmcli - fix idempotetency when modifying an existing connection (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/481).
      - osx_defaults - fix handling negative integers (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/134).
      - pacman - treat package names containing .zst as package files during installation
        (https://www.archlinux.org/news/now-using-zstandard-instead-of-xz-for-package-compression/,
        https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/650).
      - pbrun become plugin - address a bug with the parameters handling that was
        breaking the plugin in community.general when ``become_user`` was not explicitly
        specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/708).
      - postgresql_privs - fix crash when set privileges on schema with hyphen in
        the name (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/656).
      - postgresql_set - only display a warning about restarts, when restarting is
        needed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/651).
      - redfish_info, redfish_config, redfish_command - Fix Redfish response payload
        decode on Python 3.5 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/686)
      - selective - mark task failed correctly (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63767).
      - snmp_facts - skip ``EndOfMibView`` values (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49044).
      - yarn - fixed an index out of range error when no outdated packages where returned
        by yarn executable (see https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/474).
      - yarn - fixed an too many values to unpack error when scoped packages are installed
        (see https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/474).
      deprecated_features:
      - The ldap_attr module has been deprecated and will be removed in a later release;
        use ldap_attrs instead.
      - xbps - the ``force`` option never had any effect. It is now deprecated, and
        will be removed in 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/568).
      minor_changes:
      - Add the ``gcpubsub``, ``gcpubsub_info`` and ``gcpubsub_facts`` (to be removed
        in 3.0.0) modules. These were originally in community.general, but removed
        on the assumption that they have been moved to google.cloud. Since this turned
        out to be incorrect, we re-added them for 1.0.0.
      - Add the deprecated ``gcp_backend_service``, ``gcp_forwarding_rule`` and ``gcp_healthcheck``
        modules, which will be removed in 2.0.0. These were originally in community.general,
        but removed on the assumption that they have been moved to google.cloud. Since
        this turned out to be incorrect, we re-added them for 1.0.0.
      - The collection is now actively tested in CI with the latest Ansible 2.9 release.
      - airbrake_deployment - add ``version`` param; clarified docs on ``revision``
        param (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/583).
      - apk - added ``no_cache`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/548).
      - firewalld - the module has been moved to the ``ansible.posix`` collection.
        A redirection is active, which will be removed in version 2.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/623).
      - gitlab_project - add support for merge_method on projects (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/66813).
      - gitlab_runners inventory plugin - permit environment variable input for ``server_url``,
        ``api_token`` and ``filter`` options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/611).
      - haproxy - add options to dis/enable health and agent checks.  When health
        and agent checks are enabled for a service, a disabled service will re-enable
        itself automatically.  These options also change the state of the agent checks
        to match the requested state for the backend (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/684).
      - log_plays callback - use v2 methods (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/442).
      - logstash callback - add ini config (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/610).
      - lxd_container - added support of ``--target`` flag for cluster deployments
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/637).
      - parted - accept negative numbers in ``part_start`` and ``part_end``
      - pkgng - added ``stdout`` and ``stderr`` attributes to the result (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/560).
      - 'pkgng - added support for upgrading all packages using ``name: *, state:
        latest``, similar to other package providers (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/569).'
      - postgresql_query - add search_path parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/625).

      major_changes:
      - 'For community.general 2.0.0, the Hetzner Robot modules will be moved to the
        `community.hrobot <https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/hrobot>`_ collection.

        A redirection will be inserted so that users using ansible-base 2.10 or newer
        do not have to change anything.


        If you use Ansible 2.9 and explicitly use Hetzner Robot modules from this
        collection, you will need to adjust your playbooks and roles to use FQCNs
        starting with ``community.hrobot.`` instead of ``community.general.hetzner_``,

        for example replace ``community.general.hetzner_firewall_info`` in a task
        by ``community.hrobot.firewall_info``.


        If you use ansible-base and installed ``community.general`` manually and rely
        on the Hetzner Robot modules, you have to make sure to install the ``community.hrobot``
        collection as well.

        If you are using FQCNs, i.e. ``community.general.hetzner_failover_ip`` instead
        of ``hetzner_failover_ip``, it will continue working, but we still recommend
        to adjust the FQCNs as well.

        '
      - 'For community.general 2.0.0, the ``docker`` modules and plugins will be moved
        to the `community.docker <https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/docker>`_ collection.
