 .. note:: Conduit uses `BLT <https://github.com/LLNL/blt>`__ as its core CMake build system. We leverage BLT as a git submodule, however github does not include submodule contents in its automatically created source tarballs. To avoid confusion, starting with v0.3.0 we provide our own source tarballs that include BLT.
