+Porting Guide for v12.2.0
+=========================
+
+Known Issues
+------------
+
+community.sops
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- When using the ``community.sops.load_vars`` with ansible-core 2.20, note that the deprecation of ``INJECT_FACTS_AS_VARS`` causes deprecation warnings to be shown every time a variable loaded with ``community.sops.load_vars`` is used. This is due to ansible-core deprecating ``INJECT_FACTS_AS_VARS`` without providing an alternative for modules like ``community.sops.load_vars`` to use. If you do not like these deprecation warnings, you have to explicitly set ``INJECT_FACTS_AS_VARS`` to ``true``. **DO NOT** change the use of SOPS encrypted variables to ``ansible_facts``. The situation will hopefully improve in ansible-core 2.21 through the promised API that allows action plugins to set variables; community.sops will adapt to use it, which will make the warning go away. (The API was originally promised for ansible-core 2.20, but then delayed.)
