Announcement1.12.0rc3
dbt-core v1.12.0rc3
Release candidate 1.12.0 includes CLI hints for better user guidance, fixes for dependency handling in overloaded UDFs to prevent DAG drops, and performance improvements through macro virtualization and lazy views to reduce parse-time memory overhead.
dbt-core 1.12.0-rc3 - July 14, 2026
Features
- Add hints for cli users based on dbt usage (#15510)
Fixes
- Carry ref/source/function dependencies declared inside an overloaded UDF's overload body onto the root function node, so they are not dropped from the DAG when the overload SQL file is absorbed (#15501)
- Update reuse relations hint text (#15510)
Under the Hood
- Reduce parse-time memory and macro-generation overhead by virtualizing macros and switching flat_graph/WritableManifest to lazy no-copy views (#15524)
