+- update to version 0.14.4:
+  * [FIX] Fixed a regression in 0.14.3 that prevented a tzinfo
+    argument of type string to be passed to the get()
+    function. Functionality such as arrow.get("2019072807",
+    "YYYYMMDDHH", tzinfo="UTC") should work as normal again.
+  * [CHANGE] Moved backports.functools_lru_cache dependency from
+    extra_requires to install_requires for Python 2.7 installs to fix
+    #495.
