what to do with this prompt [WARNING]: Installed package 'elementary' is overriding the built-in materialization 'test'. Overrides of built-in materializations from installed packages will be deprecated in future versions of dbt. For more information:

@kapa.ai that flag is already in dbt_project.yml flags: require_explicit_package_overrides_for_builtin_materializations: False source_freshness_run_project_hooks: True

I see that you've already added the recommended flag to your
dbt_project.yml
file. Even with this flag in place, you'll still see the warning message about Elementary overriding built-in materializations. This is expected behavior. As mentioned in the GitHub issue discussion, this warning will continue to appear even after adding the flag: > Please note that after setting this flag you may see a deprecation warning from dbt. This is a temporary measure and we are working with the dbt team on a longer term solution. [Elementary documentation](https://docs.elementary-data.com/oss/quickstart/quickstart-cli-package#step-by-step%3A-install-elementary-dbt-package) If you want to completely mute this specific warning, you can try setting the
mute_ensure_materialization_override
variable to true in your `dbt_project.yml`:
Copy code
yaml vars:   mute_ensure_materialization_override: true
This is mentioned in one of the GitHub issue comments where a contributor notes: > This message can be muted by setting the 'mute_ensure_materialization_override' var to true. However, some users have reported that even with this variable set, they still see the warning [as discussed in the Slack forum](https://slack.com/archives/C02CTC89LAX/p1727244860265519). The Elementary team is working with the dbt-core team on a more permanent solution to this issue, but for now, the warning is expected to appear and can be safely ignored as long as Elementary's functionality is working correctly.

Hey @Jay Leon! No worries β€” everyone sees this warning. It’s related to some core Elementary functionality, and we're already aware of it and working on a fix to match dbt πŸ™‚
