Features

allow frameworks to detect version of CLI that’s being used (#6226) (1066ff3)

Frameworks can now use the NETLIFY\_CLI\_VERSION environment variable to detect the Netlify CLI version they’re being run with. This can be used to detect old versions with known missing features or bugs, and ask the user to update.

Bug Fixes

update Rust template (#6285) (10d470d)
