Flags from 1.9–1.10 now default to true

dbt-core 1.12.0-rc2 - July 09, 2026

Breaking Changes

• Flags introduced in 1.9 and 1.10 defaults to true (#12713)

Features

• Add catalog_database field to CatalogWriteIntegrationConfig (v1) so catalogs.yml can set a database-name override for any catalog type; works in conjunction with the dbt-adapters get_catalog_database_override method to give catalog_database highest priority in generate_database_name (#15156)

Fixes

• Reconstruct unrendered config kwarg values as readable expressions instead of raw AST repr (#15336)
• Fix partial parsing ghost-duplicate that raised a false "found two data_tests" error by cleaning up disabled generic and singular test nodes on schema re-parse (#)
