come back and link to them from here

* facts_namespacing was pushed back to 2.5
Due to lack of time we pushed this back to 2.5 so that the facts in the namespace could be shortened.
* Python version
* Remove FIXMEs - move to seperate PR
* Consistency and document treatment of default bool values
* Document that default bool values can be any Ansible recognized bool.
choose the one that reads better in context
* For fragments used by the copy module, make bool types use type=bool and not choices
* Edit for clarity
* Fix refs for local_facts and various cli :option:
* Fix dev_guide/testing_pep8 refs
* remove ref to non-existing 'developing_test_pr'
* Fix ref to ansible-vault encrypt_string
* Removed hard-to-localize colloquialism.
* Rename '_ansible-pull' in playbooks_intro.
It was conflicting with rst/ansible-pull.rst. Nothing
seems to reference it.
* Add explicit targets for and update refs
Replace some ':doc:' use with ':ref:'.
Replace some :ref: to section names with explicit targets
(:doc:`Dynamic vs. Static` -> :ref:`dynamic_vs_static` etc)
* The 'YAML+Jinja' syntax lex fails here, so just use yaml
Since the yaml+jinja highlight fails, code wasnt highlighted
at all, but 'yaml' works more or less.
* just use no lexer for the < python2.6 examples
py3 will fail highlighting them, and 'python2' throws
a lexer warning, and nothing actually highlights it, so
just disable.
Fixes#29060
Allow delegate_to if transport is either nxapi or eapi.
Persistent connection uses `cli` transport and create
a local socket on control node. Hence delegate_to is not allowed
for `cli` transport.
However as `nxapi` and `eapi` transport does not use persistent connection
it is possible to use delegate_to in this case.
from __future__ unicode_literals leads to developer confusion as
developers no longer can tell whether a bare literal string is a byte
string or a unicode string. Explicit marking as u"" or b"" is the way
to solve the same problem in the Ansbile codebase.
* Use a rst glossary for playbooks_keywords docs
* Add a 'Task' and 'Tasks' to glossary.
* Update keywords desciptions,
* use :term: rst ref, some quoting
* Make it more obvious that 'retries' and 'until' need to be used in combination.
* let generate_man also gen rst pages for cli tools
* make template-file, output-dir, output format cli options for generate_man
* update main Makefile to use generate_man.py for docs (man pages and rst)
* update vault docs that use :option:
* Edits based on
6e34ea6242 and
a3afc78535
* add a optparse 'desc' to lib/ansible/cli/config.py
The man page needs a short desc for the 'NAME' field
which it gets from the option parse 'desc' value.
Fixes building ansible-config man page.
* add trim_docstring from pep257 to generate_man
use pep258 docstring trim function to fix up any indention
weirdness inherit to doc strings (ie, lines other than
first line being indented.
* Add refs to cli command actions
To reference ansible-vaults --vault-id option, use:
:option:`The link text here <ansible-vault --vault-id>`
or:
:option:`--vault-id <ansible-vault --vault-id>`
To reference ansible-vault's 'encrypt' action, use:
:ref:`The link text here <ansible_vault_encrypt>`
or most of the time:
:ref:`ansible-vault encrypt <ansible_vault_encrypt>`
Since json_query treats backticks as delimiters for literals,
some of the examples in the json_query docs can be made a little
simpler. Rather than replacing such examples, demonstrate the
alternative
The variable was pointing to a file with a `.cer` extension but the curl command downloads a `.pem` file which makes executions of the bash script fail

In case we build docs offline, we want to have a cached copy of the
documentation refs that are in the intersphinx docs we reference.
Update those to the lattest versions from their respective upstreams
1. Copied over content from existing rst/community.rst page (which will be refactored once all these pages are in.)
2. For features, pointed to the Proposals section, which we should probably leave in ansible/proposals, where it is actively used.
