+## dbt-core 1.8.0-rc1 - May 02, 2024
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- Update the default behaviour of require_explicit_package_overrides_for_builtin_materializations to True. ([#10062](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10062))
+
+### Features
+
+- Package selector syntax for the current package ([#6891](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/6891))
+- Add require_explicit_package_overrides_for_builtin_materializations to dbt_project.yml flags, which can be used to opt-out of overriding built-in materializations from packages ([#10007](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10007))
+- add --empty flag to dbt build command ([#10026](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10026))
+- Ability to `silence` warnings via `warn_error_options` ([#9644](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9644))
+- Allow aliases `error` for `include` and `warn` for `exclude` in `warn_error_options` ([#9644](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9644))
+
+### Fixes
+
+- Add NodeRelation to SavedQuery Export ([#9534](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9534))
+- Use consistent secret scrubbing with the log function. ([#9987](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9987))
+- Validate against empty strings in package definitions ([#9985](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9985))
+- Fix default value for indirect selection in selector cannot overwritten by CLI flag and env var ([#9976](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9976), [#7673](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/7673))
+- Simplify error message if test severity isn't 'warn' or 'error' ([#9715](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9715))
+- Support overriding source level loaded_at_field with a null table level definition ([#9320](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9320))
+
+### Docs
+
+- Enable display of unit tests ([dbt-docs/#501](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-docs/issues/501))
+- Unit tests not rendering ([dbt-docs/#506](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-docs/issues/506))
+
+### Under the Hood
+
+- Split up deferral across parsing (adding 'defer_relation' from state manifest) and runtime ref resolution" ([#9199](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9199))
+- Raise deprecation warning if installed package overrides built-in materialization ([#9971](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/9971))
+- Use the SECRET_ENV_PREFIX from dbt_common instead of duplicating it in dbt-core ([#10018](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10018))
+- Enable use of record mode via environment variable ([#10045](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10045))
+- Consistent naming + deprecation warnings for "legacy behavior" flags ([#10062](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/issues/10062))
+
+### Dependencies
