Ansible Netcommon 8.6.1 Release!

Hey Everyone! :waving_hand:
We’ve now rolled out ansible.netcommon 8.6.1

Note: 8.6.0 had a Galaxy hash mismatch from the release pipeline running twice on the same tag, please use 8.6.1.

The changes in this include:

  • cli_config — push config and detect changes via before/after running-config snapshots on platforms without onbox/generate diff (previously config could be silently skipped)
  • Apply diff_ignore_lines on those snapshot diffs so volatile lines no longer force changed=true every run
  • Fail clearly when connection capabilities can’t be determined, instead of treating that like “no diff support”

You can check out the full changelog and details here: Release v8.6.1 · ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon · GitHub

Thanks to everyone who reported issues and contributed fixes! :heart:
