8.7.0-beta2

Full Changelog

Notable Changes

• BLT now support multiple configuration strategies. The default approach is to use config_split and not features. You may set cm.strategy to config-split, features, core-only, or none in your project.yml.
• BLT will no longer overwrite your .gitignore file moving forward, though it may make small, targeted alterations.
• Acquia Cloud hooks are now opt-in. You must run setup:cloud-hooks to create or update your cloud hooks.
• Cloud hooks for ACSF now exist. If used, they will programatically update all ACSF sites.
