3.14.0

Enhancements

• Replace custom Python script with conda-standalone calls. This removes Python as an implicit dependency from installers. (#549 via #1089)
• EXE: Improve handling of options initialize_conda, register_python with their corresponding default values. The behavior of these options with respect to initialize_by_default and register_python_default is now consistent with .sh and .pkg installers. Windows CLI installations now don't add conda to PATH or register Python by default, and command-line arguments are only parsed when installing in silent mode (enabled with the flag /S). (#1003, #1004 via #1105)

Bug fixes

• Ensure cached repodata files are shipped in SH installers. (#1119 via #1121).
