A frequent need is to adjust some datasource parameters such as file paths, database names, database hosts, passwords, or vector tile source locations.
The way that has evolved to do this is localconfig which can be used to replace parameters. This has proved superior to CartoCC because it does not require modifying the MML or layer definitions file which causes problems with version control.
