Adds support for .env file for use with rover dev #2646

DMallare · 2025-07-08T21:09:04Z

Adds .env support for rover dev command
Uses the values in the .env file if present
If APOLLO_GRAPH_REF and/or APOLLO_KEY are supplied inline with the command those values override what is defined in .env

Manual Testing

Scenario 1: Using `.env` file containing valid `APOLLO_KEY` and `APOLLO_GRAPH_REF`

Run rover config whoami to ensure we are using the correct API key
