I noticed this behavior when I updated my angular-cli version from beta.25.5 to beta.26 (https://github.com/angular/angular-cli#updating-angular-cli).
I thought this was working with the previous angular-cli version, but with beta.25.5 I get the same message.

They die not released this Feature with the Last Beta. Wait for Beta 27.
They commited this Feature today.

I'm getting the same error, migrating to beta 30 from 26
