Four times a year QMK runs a process for merging Breaking Changes. A Breaking Change is any change which modifies how QMK behaves in a way that is incompatible or potentially dangerous. We limit these changes to 4 times per year so that users can have confidence that updating their QMK tree will not break their keymaps.
Reduce Helix keyboard build variation (#8669)
The build commands for the Helix keyboard are:
make <helix_build_name>:<keymap_name>
For <helix_build_name>, specify the one in the rightmost column of the table below, such as helix, helix/pico.
