Highlights
This release resolves compatibility issues with a set of `dbt-core` versions.
- `dbt-core` 1.5.2 onwards is now properly supported.
- support for `dbt-core` 1.1 to 1.4 has now been re-enabled after
support had to be abandoned a few releases ago.
NOTE: We cannot guarantee that SQLFluff will always continue to remain
compatible with all dbt versions, particularly as the folks at dbt-labs
have often backported breaking changes to their internal APIs to previous
versions of `dbt-core`. This release does at least bring more extensive
internal testing to catch when this does occur to allow our community
to react.
This release fixes also resolves a potential security issue for when
using external libraries (and the `library_path` config setting),
and also contains various dialect improvements.
