ESLint v6.8.0 released

We just pushed ESLint v6.8.0, which is a minor release upgrade of ESLint. This release adds some new features and fixes several bugs found in the previous release.

Highlights

• The new --no-error-on-unmatched-pattern CLI flag prevents errors when a quoted glob pattern or --ext is not matched.
• ESLint now looks for .eslintrc.cjs config files to allow CommonJS-based configs in ES Module-based packages.
