Log Message:
ansible-core: updated to 2.14.4

v2.14.4
=======

Minor Changes
-------------

- 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 - Exclude ansible-core vendored Python packages from ansible-test \ 
payloads.
- 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).
