- Use /bin/sh rather than /bin/bash when executing commands. This allows use in environments that don't have bash, such as Alpine Linux. (#448)
buildkite-agent start --disconnect-after-jobwill run the agent, and automatically disconnect after running it's first job. This has sometimes been referred to as "one shot" mode and is useful when you spin up an environment per-job and want the agent to automatically disconnect once it's finished it's jobbuildkite-agent start --disconnect-after-job-timeoutis the time in seconds the agent will wait for that first job to be assigned. The default value is 120 seconds (2 minutes). If a job isn't assigned to the agent after this time, it will automatically disconnect and the agent process will stop.

- Refactored how environment variables are interpolated in the agent
- The buildkite-agent pipeline upload command now looks for .yaml files as well

- We've removed our dependency of libc for greater compatibly across *nix systems which has had a few side effects: We've had to remove support for changing the process title when an agent starts running a job. This feature has only ever been available to users running 64-bit ubuntu, and required us to have a dependency on libc. We'd like to bring this feature back in the future in a way that doesn't have us relying on libc
