POC for using environment variables to override internal dependency branches

mikealfare commented 7 months ago

resolves #15

Problem

We need to be able to run integration tests, and possibly unit tests, against a branch other than main for internal dependencies (e.g. dbt-common, dbt-adapters).

Solution

Try creating dependency overrides based on environmental variables. The goal is to enable running this in GHA via inputs as well as running this locally by updating test.env.
