Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
Since community.general 13.0.0, all module utils, plugin utils, and doc fragments contained in this collection are private to the collection. This means that if another collection wants to use these, there is no longer any guarantee that there are no breaking changes, even in bugfix releases. This has no practical impact on any other use of the collection, that is, everyone using modules or plugins from the collections will not notice any difference (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11312, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11896).
The collection no longer supports ansible-core 2.17 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11906).
