This major version upgrade of python-dotenv from 0.14.0 to 1.2.2 introduces breaking changes related to Python version support and file handling functions.

Key Changes:

• Dropped Python Support: Support for Python 3.7 was dropped in version 1.0.0, and support for Python 3.9 was dropped in version 1.2.2. Your environment must be running a supported Python version.
• Symlink Behavior Change: The functions dotenv.set_key and dotenv.unset_key no longer follow symbolic links by default. If your application relies on this behavior, you must now explicitly pass follow_symlinks=True.
• File Permission Change: When modifying .env files with set_key or unset_key, the original file permissions are now preserved instead of being reset.

Recommendation:
Verify that your production environment is running a Python version compatible with this release (i.e., not 3.7 or 3.9). Review any usage of set_key or unset_key to ensure the new symlink and file permission handling does not affect your application.
