Description of the problem / feature request:

I am trying to get the name of the current repository from a macro.

.
├── a
│   ├── BUILD.bazel
│   ├── WORKSPACE
│   ├── empty.txt
│   └── txt_files.bzl
└── b
    ├── BUILD.bazel
    ├── WORKSPACE
    └── empty2.txt

(see full example here )

I want that if repo b will call the macro in @a//:txt_files.bzl then somehow I'd be able to retrieve that it was called from repo b.

Right now (not sure if it's a bug or work as intended) - calling native.repository_name() will return @ and not the name of repo as declared in its WORKSPACE file.

Feature requests: what underlying problem are you trying to solve with this feature?

I want to change the behavior of a macro based on the callee repository.

Can we allow native.repository_name() to return the explicit name of the repository and not @? To maintain backward compatibility - I assume it would be better if we add a flag to this method that will be turned off by default.

As a workaround I wrote the following repository rule:

def _define_repository_name_impl(repository_ctx):
    repository_ctx.file("BUILD.bazel",
        """package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])
        """)
    repository_ctx.file("defs.bzl",
        """main_repository_name="{}"
        """.format(repository_ctx.attr.repo_name))

_define_repository_name = repository_rule(
    implementation = _define_repository_name_impl,
    attrs={"repo_name": attr.string(mandatory=True)}
  )

def define_repository_name(repo_name):
    _define_repository_name(name = "main_repository_name",repo_name = repo_name)

which allows me to load the main repository name by calling:

load("@main_repository_name//:defs.bzl","main_repository_name")

The WORKSPACE file looks like this:

repository_name = "xxx"
workspace(name = repository_name)

load("@bazel_tooling//rules:define_repository_name.bzl","define_repository_name")
define_repository_name(repository_name)

I don't like it... given that workspace() call should be the first line of the WORKSPACE file. But it works (bazel 2.1.0)

@or-shachar @jheaff1 Could you describe in more detail what you want to use the name declared in the WORKSPACE file for in a macro? Knowing more about the actual problem you are trying to solve would help me answer these questions.

You most likely want just "@" instead. With the recent fixes on repo mapping, "@workspace_name//:foo" is equivalent to "@//:foo".

(Unless you're doing exec path or runfiles shenanigans, in which case refer to @fmeum's comment.)

jheaff1 commented Sep 28, 2022

@fmeum I am trying to write a sh_binary target for the rules_foreign_cc repo that wraps around an executable binary (built by rules_foreign_cc) with shared library dependencies. This would allow such a binary to be used as a build tool, eg the protobuf compiler or various generators part of the Qt framework.

I would like to use the rlocation bash function provided here:

# cat "$(rlocation my_workspace/path/to/my/data.txt)"

The rlocation bash function requires the workspace name, which I would like to obtain programatically in a macro.

I’ve tried to use native.repository_name() but that returns @ rather than the name of the repository.

@jheaff1 Would an analogue of $(location //foo) that returns the correct path for rlocation help you realize this? I could see that being more user-friendly than yet another "some type of name of a repo" thing.

jheaff1 commented Sep 29, 2022

@fmeum Absolutely that would be very useful. Ive found that using $(rootpath rather than $(location provides exactly what $(rlocation requires apart from the workspace name.

fmeum commented Oct 4, 2022

@lberki I have been thinking about proposing a $(location ...) variant that returns the correct path for Rlocation for a while. The way runfiles work with Bzlmod would almost make this a requirement for location expansion to remain useful in args. What do you think?

lberki commented Oct 4, 2022

@fmeum without taking sides on the `$(location) question, it's a feature orthogonal to the one proposed in this bug.

re: this bug in particular, what is the argument against introducing repository_name()? Naively, one would think that it's a very logical extension to package_name(). @Wyverald maybe you can think of a counter-argument?

We already have native.repository_name and it does what it says on the tin (https://bazel.build/rules/lib/native#repository_name). @fmeum's & @jheaff1's question is more about the runfiles/execpath use case, where we sometimes need the workspace name, which is only accessible right now in a rule ctx object (https://bazel.build/rules/lib/ctx#workspace_name; also to note, not the same as Label.workspace_name...)

@Wyverald I'm embarrassed! I specifically looked for the identifier called repository_name and didn't find it in the source code. My bad.

lberki commented Oct 4, 2022

The issue with making the (global) workspace name available in Starlark code is that then the evaluation of BUILD files in external repositories would be a function of the content of the main repository, which isn't too intuitive (it's problematic enough for ctx.workspace_name(), but we can't help that because that's how runfiles work at the moment.

fmeum commented Oct 4, 2022

@lberki That plus the fact that having yet another workspace_name would be confusing made me think that being able to get Rlocation paths out of location expansion may indeed be the best solution to this issue (see also the comment by @jheaff1). Since native.repository_name returns the right identifier for everything except runfiles discovery, why not add a way for users to get the full runfiles path right away without having them stitch it together themselves?

lberki commented Oct 5, 2022

The reason why I was confused is that for some reason, I thought $(rlocation) is already a thing in Bazel so I went on a wild goose chase trying to figure out what else you want :)

I think both adding $(rlocation) and the same method to File is reasonable. @Wyverald , it looks like you also agree?

ShreeM01 pushed a commit that referenced this issue Nov 3, 2022
The new location expansion pattern `rlocationpath` and its plural version `rlocationpaths` resolve to the path(s) suitable for the Rlocation function offered by runfiles libraries.

Compared to the `rootpath` pattern, which can returns `../repo_name/pkg/file` for a file in an external repository and `pkg/file` for a file in the main repository, the path returned by `rlocationpath` is always of the form `repo_name/pkg/file`.

RELNOTES: The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g., on Windows by default).

     Add 'toolchain' parameter to actions.{run,run_shell} (#16964)

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes #16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes #13047.

    Closes #14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).

    Closes #14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes #14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on #15856

    Closes #15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes #15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16667.

Incompatible changes:

  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since the path would refer to a
    netrc file inside the external repository by absolute path.
    Migration should be straightforward.
  - genrule switched to use exec transition instead of host. This can
    break targets with hardcoded output paths. To avoid using
    hardcoded paths use make variables, see
    https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.2.2/be/make-variables.html#pre
    defined_label_variables
  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since...
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - The --incompatible_existing_rules_immutable_view flag has been
    flipped to true. See
    #13907 for
    migration notes.
  - Split up the C++ archive from the C++ link action and set
    `CppArchive` as mnemonic.
  - workspace(managed_directories=) is not available anymore.
  - --legacy_important_outputs now has a default of false.
  - --legacy_important_outputs default reverted to true.
  - objc_library now requires CcInfo in its deps.  If this breaks
    you, add empty CcInfo() to your rule.
  - Flag --experimental_local_memory_estimate removed.
  - Added a new flag
    --incompatible_unambiguous_label_stringification, which causes
    labels in the main repo to stringify into unambiguous forms
    starting with an @. See
    #15916 for more
    information.

  - --incompatible_remote_downloader_send_all_headers is flipped to
    true. See #16356 for details.
  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.
  - In package_group's `packages` attribute, the syntax "//..." now
    refers to all packages in the same repository as the package
    group, rather than all packages everywhere. The new item "public"
    can be used instead to obtain the old behavior. In `bazel query
    --output=proto` (and `--output=xml`), the `packages` attribute
    now serializes with the leading double slash included (for
    instance, `//foo/bar/...` instead of `foo/bar/...`). See also
    #16355, #16323, and #16391.
  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.

New features:

  - Support local_repository in Bazel Registry's source.json file

Important changes:

  - Deprecate --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag, in preparation
    for removal in Bazel 6.x.
  - Treat py_*.srcs_version="PY2" the same as "PY2ONLY".
  - The Build Event Protocol now contains file digests and sizes
    along with the file name and URI.
  - Refactor system suspend event handling.
  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()
  - Allow \a \b \f \v escape sequences in Starlark.
  - Match remote and local xcode version by most granular version.
  - Adds `--experimental_worker_multiplex_sandboxing` flag that
    controls whether to sandbox multiplex workers that support it.
  - provider() has a new parameter: init, a callback for performing
    pre-processing and validation of field values. Iff this parameter
    is set,
    provider() returns a tuple of 2 elements: the usual provider
    symbol (which,
    when called, invokes init) and a raw constructor (which bypasses
    init).
  - Tests that fail to create or complete their
    `TestAttemptContinuation` by
    throwing an `ExecException` will report an `INCOMPLETE` status.
    Previously, Bazel
    would fail to report any status for the test attempt.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Include more information about configurations in cquery proto
    formatted output. This deprecates the configuration field of
    AnalysisProtosV2.ConfiguredTarget, and adds a new field,
    configuration_id, to
    be used instead.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - In aquery and cquery proto output, indicate if a configuration is
    a
    tool or non-tool configuration.
  - Include complete configurations in cquery proto output.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add some documentation about how configuration information is
    conveyed in cquery proto output.
  - Introduces experimental static library linking API under
    apple_common.link_multi_arch_static_library
  - Further deprecation and removal of pkg_tar. Stop supporting
    legacy use of 'files' attribute, where it could be a list of
    labels instead of a map of paths to labels.
  - Removed --incompatible_no_build_defs_pkg flag. It never fulfilled
    its purpose because --all_incompatible_changes would never set
    it. The last rule it gated (pkg_tar) is scheduled to be removed
    in Bazel 6.x.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - The default dexer is now d8. dx can be optionally enabled using:
      --define=android_dexmerger_tool=dx_dexmerger \
      --define=android_incremental_dexing_tool=dx_dexbuilder \
      --define=android_standalone_dexing_tool=dx_compat_dx \
      --use_workers_with_dexbuilder
  - Packaging support for deploy JAR embedded JDK files (hermetic
    Java).
  - Don't stamp cc_common.link actions for tool dependencies.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Allow specialization to work with constraint_values.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - Make ijar / java_import preserve classes with `@kotlin.Metadata`
    annotations
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Add devtools/build/lib/worker:work_request_handlers to the remote
    android tools release package. This will be transitively packaged
    into all_android_tools.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - Advance android_tools_pkg version to 0.24.0.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - "blaze config" now only reports info from the last build. To
    compare configurations across multiple builds, redirect "blaze
    config" output to a file and run your favorite diff tool.
  - The --incompatible_override_toolchain_transition flag is now
    always set, and will be removed in the future. Thus,
    --noincompatible_override_toolchain_transition has no effect, and
    the value of the incompatible_use_toolchain_transition parameter
    in aspect() and rule() builtins is ignored.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Toolchain types may now be optional, in addition to mandatory.
    See https://bazel.build/docs/toolchains#optional-toolchains for
    further details.
  - Add six to deps of has_services=1 py_proto_librarys.
  - pkg_tar(symlinks) has been removed. Users needing that feature
    should
    migrate to @rules_pkg.
  - Aspects can now define and use exec groups using the same API as
    rules.
  - Removed the obsolete --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag. The
    feature is permanently enabled.
  - embedded_tools packages R8 desugarer again
  - Bazel now selects sh path based on execution platform instead of
    host platform, making it possible to execute sh actions in
    multiplatform builds. --shell_executable now only applies to
    actions configured for host.
  - labels in genquery.scope are no longer configured.
  - When Bzlmod is enabled, all Bzlmod-generated repos will have an
    extra '@' prepended to their names. This effectively enables the
    canonical label literal syntax for Bzlmod-generated repos
    (`@@canonicalRepoName//pkg:target`; see
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N81qfCa8oskCk5LqTW-LNthy6EBrDo
    t7bdUsjz6JFC4/edit?usp=sharing).
  - Exposed `CcSharedLibraryInfo` to Starlark builtins.
  - Enable --use_top_level_targets_for_symlinks by default.
  - Singlejar accepts runtime Created-By field
  - --noincompatible_disable_managed_directories, and with that,
    workspace(managed_directories=) is not supported anymore.
  - Bazel supports D8 desugaring, albeit without persistent workers
  - Remove mtime options from pkg_tar. Users should migrate to
    @rules_pkg.
  - Test for experimental multiplexed persistent resource processor.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - The legacy pkg_tar no longer supports the ability to untar and
    repackage an input tar file (`deps` attribute). Users needed that
    capability must switch to github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.
  - Change singlejar metadata to report Created-By Bazel
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.
  - Revert interface_deps back to implementation_deps after problem
    reported in. Use `buildozer 'rename deps implementation_deps'
    //...:%cc_library; buildozer 'rename interface_deps deps'
    //...:%cc_library`
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - D8 is the default desugarer
  - Migrate main_dex_list_creator to D8 (DX deprecation)
  - --experimental_enable_bzlmod has been renamed --enable_bzlmod,
    and still defaults to false.
  - selects() no longer produce irrelevant duplicate label checks
  - Adds a dexer output cache to CompatDexBuilder to improve build
    speed.
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - The `@bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler` flag now has the value
    `gcc` if the configured compiler is detected to be gcc rather
    than the generic value `compiler`. A branch for `gcc` may have to
    be added to `select` statements that do not have a default case
    that handles gcc appropriately.
  - The `get_child` method of `path` now accepts an arbitrary
    number of relative path strings as positional arguments.
  - SourceManifestAction supports `Action.content`
  - Add --incompatible_build_transitive_python_runfiles alias. See
    #16303
  - The @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler flag now has the value
    `clang` for the auto-configured Xcode toolchain rather than the
    generic value compiler. A branch for `clang` may have to be added
    to select statements that do not have a default case that handles
    this toolchain appropriately.
  - added additional debug message to warn of skipped toolchains
    during resolution
  - The deprecated --remote_allow_symlink_upload flag has been
    removed. Symlinks in local action outputs are always permitted,
    even with remote caching. Whether they're uploaded as symlinks or
    as the files/directories they point to is still determined by the
    --incompatible_remote_symlinks flag.
  - Added `struct`, `json`, `proto`, and `depset` to the starlark
    environment of Bazel's cquery (--output=starlark) command
  - Added three `package_group`-related flags:
    `--incompatible_package_group_includes_double_slash` (#16391),
    `--incompatible_package_group_has_public_syntax` (#16355), and
    `--incompatible_fix_package_group_reporoot_syntax` (#16323). With
    these flags, `package_group` can now easily specify "all
    packages", "no packages", and "all packages in the current repo".
  - Record hermetic packaged JDK modules file size in deploy JAR
    manifest 'JDK-Lib-Modules-Size' attribute.
  - .bzl files may now set a visibility to guard what other .bzl and
    BUILD files may load them. See [...] for more information.
  - Deletes the --extra_proguard_specs Blaze flag
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test

   + b51396a:
     Add 'toolchain' parameter to actions.{run,run_shell} (bazelbuild#16964)

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes bazelbuild#16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes bazelbuild#13047.

    Closes bazelbuild#14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (bazelbuild#14969).

    Closes bazelbuild#14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes bazelbuild#14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on bazelbuild#15856

    Closes bazelbuild#15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes bazelbuild#15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16667.

Incompatible changes:

  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since the path would refer to a
    netrc file inside the external repository by absolute path.
    Migration should be straightforward.
  - genrule switched to use exec transition instead of host. This can
    break targets with hardcoded output paths. To avoid using
    hardcoded paths use make variables, see
    https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.2.2/be/make-variables.html#pre
    defined_label_variables
  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since...
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - The --incompatible_existing_rules_immutable_view flag has been
    flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#13907 for
    migration notes.
  - Split up the C++ archive from the C++ link action and set
    `CppArchive` as mnemonic.
  - workspace(managed_directories=) is not available anymore.
  - --legacy_important_outputs now has a default of false.
  - --legacy_important_outputs default reverted to true.
  - objc_library now requires CcInfo in its deps.  If this breaks
    you, add empty CcInfo() to your rule.
  - Flag --experimental_local_memory_estimate removed.
  - Added a new flag
    --incompatible_unambiguous_label_stringification, which causes
    labels in the main repo to stringify into unambiguous forms
    starting with an @. See
    bazelbuild#15916 for more
    information.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test
  - Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution
    (bazelbuild#7260)
  - (Rollback) Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution
    (bazelbuild#7260)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (bazelbuild#16301)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (bazelbuild#16301)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (bazelbuild#16301)
  - --incompatible_remote_downloader_send_all_headers is flipped to
    true. See bazelbuild#16356 for details.
  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.
  - In package_group's `packages` attribute, the syntax "//..." now
    refers to all packages in the same repository as the package
    group, rather than all packages everywhere. The new item "public"
    can be used instead to obtain the old behavior. In `bazel query
    --output=proto` (and `--output=xml`), the `packages` attribute
    now serializes with the leading double slash included (for
    instance, `//foo/bar/...` instead of `foo/bar/...`). See also
    bazelbuild#16355, bazelbuild#16323, and bazelbuild#16391.
  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.

New features:

  - Support local_repository in Bazel Registry's source.json file

Important changes:

  - Deprecate --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag, in preparation
    for removal in Bazel 6.x.
  - Treat py_*.srcs_version="PY2" the same as "PY2ONLY".
  - The Build Event Protocol now contains file digests and sizes
    along with the file name and URI.
  - Refactor system suspend event handling.
  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()
  - Allow \a \b \f \v escape sequences in Starlark.
  - Match remote and local xcode version by most granular version.
  - Adds `--experimental_worker_multiplex_sandboxing` flag that
    controls whether to sandbox multiplex workers that support it.
  - provider() has a new parameter: init, a callback for performing
    pre-processing and validation of field values. Iff this parameter
    is set,
    provider() returns a tuple of 2 elements: the usual provider
    symbol (which,
    when called, invokes init) and a raw constructor (which bypasses
    init).
  - Tests that fail to create or complete their
    `TestAttemptContinuation` by
    throwing an `ExecException` will report an `INCOMPLETE` status.
    Previously, Bazel
    would fail to report any status for the test attempt.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Include more information about configurations in cquery proto
    formatted output. This deprecates the configuration field of
    AnalysisProtosV2.ConfiguredTarget, and adds a new field,
    configuration_id, to
    be used instead.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - In aquery and cquery proto output, indicate if a configuration is
    a
    tool or non-tool configuration.
  - Include complete configurations in cquery proto output.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add some documentation about how configuration information is
    conveyed in cquery proto output.
  - Introduces experimental static library linking API under
    apple_common.link_multi_arch_static_library
  - Further deprecation and removal of pkg_tar. Stop supporting
    legacy use of 'files' attribute, where it could be a list of
    labels instead of a map of paths to labels.
  - Removed --incompatible_no_build_defs_pkg flag. It never fulfilled
    its purpose because --all_incompatible_changes would never set
    it. The last rule it gated (pkg_tar) is scheduled to be removed
    in Bazel 6.x.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (bazelbuild#14969).
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - The default dexer is now d8. dx can be optionally enabled using:
      --define=android_dexmerger_tool=dx_dexmerger \
      --define=android_incremental_dexing_tool=dx_dexbuilder \
      --define=android_standalone_dexing_tool=dx_compat_dx \
      --use_workers_with_dexbuilder
  - Packaging support for deploy JAR embedded JDK files (hermetic
    Java).
  - Don't stamp cc_common.link actions for tool dependencies.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Allow specialization to work with constraint_values.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - Make ijar / java_import preserve classes with `@kotlin.Metadata`
    annotations
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Add devtools/build/lib/worker:work_request_handlers to the remote
    android tools release package. This will be transitively packaged
    into all_android_tools.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - Advance android_tools_pkg version to 0.24.0.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - "blaze config" now only reports info from the last build. To
    compare configurations across multiple builds, redirect "blaze
    config" output to a file and run your favorite diff tool.
  - The --incompatible_override_toolchain_transition flag is now
    always set, and will be removed in the future. Thus,
    --noincompatible_override_toolchain_transition has no effect, and
    the value of the incompatible_use_toolchain_transition parameter
    in aspect() and rule() builtins is ignored.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Toolchain types may now be optional, in addition to mandatory.
    See https://bazel.build/docs/toolchains#optional-toolchains for
    further details.
  - Add six to deps of has_services=1 py_proto_librarys.
  - pkg_tar(symlinks) has been removed. Users needing that feature
    should
    migrate to @rules_pkg.
  - Aspects can now define and use exec groups using the same API as
    rules.
  - Removed the obsolete --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag. The
    feature is permanently enabled.
  - embedded_tools packages R8 desugarer again
  - Bazel now selects sh path based on execution platform instead of
    host platform, making it possible to execute sh actions in
    multiplatform builds. --shell_executable now only applies to
    actions configured for host.
  - labels in genquery.scope are no longer configured.
  - When Bzlmod is enabled, all Bzlmod-generated repos will have an
    extra '@' prepended to their names. This effectively enables the
    canonical label literal syntax for Bzlmod-generated repos
    (`@@canonicalRepoName//pkg:target`; see
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N81qfCa8oskCk5LqTW-LNthy6EBrDo
    t7bdUsjz6JFC4/edit?usp=sharing).
  - Exposed `CcSharedLibraryInfo` to Starlark builtins.
  - Enable --use_top_level_targets_for_symlinks by default.
  - Singlejar accepts runtime Created-By field
  - --noincompatible_disable_managed_directories, and with that,
    workspace(managed_directories=) is not supported anymore.
  - Bazel supports D8 desugaring, albeit without persistent workers
  - Remove mtime options from pkg_tar. Users should migrate to
    @rules_pkg.
  - Test for experimental multiplexed persistent resource processor.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - The legacy pkg_tar no longer supports the ability to untar and
    repackage an input tar file (`deps` attribute). Users needed that
    capability must switch to github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.
  - Change singlejar metadata to report Created-By Bazel
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.
  - Revert interface_deps back to implementation_deps after problem
    reported in. Use `buildozer 'rename deps implementation_deps'
    //...:%cc_library; buildozer 'rename interface_deps deps'
    //...:%cc_library`
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - D8 is the default desugarer
  - Migrate main_dex_list_creator to D8 (DX deprecation)
  - --experimental_enable_bzlmod has been renamed --enable_bzlmod,
    and still defaults to false.
  - selects() no longer produce irrelevant duplicate label checks
  - Adds a dexer output cache to CompatDexBuilder to improve build
    speed.
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - The `@bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler` flag now has the value
    `gcc` if the configured compiler is detected to be gcc rather
    than the generic value `compiler`. A branch for `gcc` may have to
    be added to `select` statements that do not have a default case
    that handles gcc appropriately.
  - The `get_child` method of `path` now accepts an arbitrary
    number of relative path strings as positional arguments.
  - SourceManifestAction supports `Action.content`
  - Add --incompatible_build_transitive_python_runfiles alias. See
    bazelbuild#16303
  - The @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler flag now has the value
    `clang` for the auto-configured Xcode toolchain rather than the
    generic value compiler. A branch for `clang` may have to be added
    to select statements that do not have a default case that handles
    this toolchain appropriately.
  - added additional debug message to warn of skipped toolchains
    during resolution
  - The deprecated --remote_allow_symlink_upload flag has been
    removed. Symlinks in local action outputs are always permitted,
    even with remote caching. Whether they're uploaded as symlinks or
    as the files/directories they point to is still determined by the
    --incompatible_remote_symlinks flag.
  - Added `struct`, `json`, `proto`, and `depset` to the starlark
    environment of Bazel's cquery (--output=starlark) command
  - Added three `package_group`-related flags:
    `--incompatible_package_group_includes_double_slash` (bazelbuild#16391),
    `--incompatible_package_group_has_public_syntax` (bazelbuild#16355), and
    `--incompatible_fix_package_group_reporoot_syntax` (bazelbuild#16323). With
    these flags, `package_group` can now easily specify "all
    packages", "no packages", and "all packages in the current repo".
  - Record hermetic packaged JDK modules file size in deploy JAR
    manifest 'JDK-Lib-Modules-Size' attribute.
  - .bzl files may now set a visibility to guard what other .bzl and
    BUILD files may load them. See [...] for more information.
  - Deletes the --extra_proguard_specs Blaze flag
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test

     Add 'toolchain' parameter to actions.{run,run_shell} (#16964)

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes #16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes #13047.

    Closes #14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).

    Closes #14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes #14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on #15856

    Closes #15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes #15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16667.

     Fix runfiles creation with MANIFEST when building without the
     bytes
   + 3a13af4:
     Remove LCOV merger dependency of `cc_test` without coverage
     (#17004)
   + 25ba76c:
     Include full tree artifact in inputs when prefetcher doesn't
     support partial tree artifacts.

Incompatible changes:

  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since the path would refer to a
    netrc file inside the external repository by absolute path.
    Migration should be straightforward.
  - genrule switched to use exec transition instead of host. This can
    break targets with hardcoded output paths. To avoid using
    hardcoded paths use make variables, see
    https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.2.2/be/make-variables.html#pre
    defined_label_variables
  - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
    that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
    are many instances in the wild since...
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
    methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
    `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
  - The --incompatible_existing_rules_immutable_view flag has been
    flipped to true. See
    #13907 for
    migration notes.
  - Split up the C++ archive from the C++ link action and set
    `CppArchive` as mnemonic.
  - workspace(managed_directories=) is not available anymore.
  - --legacy_important_outputs now has a default of false.
  - --legacy_important_outputs default reverted to true.
  - objc_library now requires CcInfo in its deps.  If this breaks
    you, add empty CcInfo() to your rule.
  - Flag --experimental_local_memory_estimate removed.
  - Added a new flag
    --incompatible_unambiguous_label_stringification, which causes
    labels in the main repo to stringify into unambiguous forms
    starting with an @. See
    #15916 for more
    information.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test
  - Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution
    (#7260)
  - (Rollback) Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution
    (#7260)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (#16301)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (#16301)
  - name parameter is removed from rule call
    (#16301)
  - --incompatible_remote_downloader_send_all_headers is flipped to
    true. See #16356 for details.
  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.
  - In package_group's `packages` attribute, the syntax "//..." now
    refers to all packages in the same repository as the package
    group, rather than all packages everywhere. The new item "public"
    can be used instead to obtain the old behavior. In `bazel query
    --output=proto` (and `--output=xml`), the `packages` attribute
    now serializes with the leading double slash included (for
    instance, `//foo/bar/...` instead of `foo/bar/...`). See also
    #16355, #16323, and #16391.
  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.

New features:

  - Support local_repository in Bazel Registry's source.json file

Important changes:

  - Deprecate --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag, in preparation
    for removal in Bazel 6.x.
  - Treat py_*.srcs_version="PY2" the same as "PY2ONLY".
  - The Build Event Protocol now contains file digests and sizes
    along with the file name and URI.
  - Refactor system suspend event handling.
  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()
  - Allow \a \b \f \v escape sequences in Starlark.
  - Match remote and local xcode version by most granular version.
  - Adds `--experimental_worker_multiplex_sandboxing` flag that
    controls whether to sandbox multiplex workers that support it.
  - provider() has a new parameter: init, a callback for performing
    pre-processing and validation of field values. Iff this parameter
    is set,
    provider() returns a tuple of 2 elements: the usual provider
    symbol (which,
    when called, invokes init) and a raw constructor (which bypasses
    init).
  - Tests that fail to create or complete their
    `TestAttemptContinuation` by
    throwing an `ExecException` will report an `INCOMPLETE` status.
    Previously, Bazel
    would fail to report any status for the test attempt.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Include more information about configurations in cquery proto
    formatted output. This deprecates the configuration field of
    AnalysisProtosV2.ConfiguredTarget, and adds a new field,
    configuration_id, to
    be used instead.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - In aquery and cquery proto output, indicate if a configuration is
    a
    tool or non-tool configuration.
  - Include complete configurations in cquery proto output.
  - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
    interface_deps
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add some documentation about how configuration information is
    conveyed in cquery proto output.
  - Introduces experimental static library linking API under
    apple_common.link_multi_arch_static_library
  - Further deprecation and removal of pkg_tar. Stop supporting
    legacy use of 'files' attribute, where it could be a list of
    labels instead of a map of paths to labels.
  - Removed --incompatible_no_build_defs_pkg flag. It never fulfilled
    its purpose because --all_incompatible_changes would never set
    it. The last rule it gated (pkg_tar) is scheduled to be removed
    in Bazel 6.x.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - The default dexer is now d8. dx can be optionally enabled using:
      --define=android_dexmerger_tool=dx_dexmerger \
      --define=android_incremental_dexing_tool=dx_dexbuilder \
      --define=android_standalone_dexing_tool=dx_compat_dx \
      --use_workers_with_dexbuilder
  - Packaging support for deploy JAR embedded JDK files (hermetic
    Java).
  - Don't stamp cc_common.link actions for tool dependencies.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Allow specialization to work with constraint_values.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - Make ijar / java_import preserve classes with `@kotlin.Metadata`
    annotations
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is
    the _host_).
  - Add devtools/build/lib/worker:work_request_handlers to the remote
    android tools release package. This will be transitively packaged
    into all_android_tools.
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
    $ANDROID_HOME.
  - Advance android_tools_pkg version to 0.24.0.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK.
  - "blaze config" now only reports info from the last build. To
    compare configurations across multiple builds, redirect "blaze
    config" output to a file and run your favorite diff tool.
  - The --incompatible_override_toolchain_transition flag is now
    always set, and will be removed in the future. Thus,
    --noincompatible_override_toolchain_transition has no effect, and
    the value of the incompatible_use_toolchain_transition parameter
    in aspect() and rule() builtins is ignored.
  - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now
    link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host
    platform (rather
    than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_).
  - Toolchain types may now be optional, in addition to mandatory.
    See https://bazel.build/docs/toolchains#optional-toolchains for
    further details.
  - Add six to deps of has_services=1 py_proto_librarys.
  - pkg_tar(symlinks) has been removed. Users needing that feature
    should
    migrate to @rules_pkg.
  - Aspects can now define and use exec groups using the same API as
    rules.
  - Removed the obsolete --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag. The
    feature is permanently enabled.
  - embedded_tools packages R8 desugarer again
  - Bazel now selects sh path based on execution platform instead of
    host platform, making it possible to execute sh actions in
    multiplatform builds. --shell_executable now only applies to
    actions configured for host.
  - labels in genquery.scope are no longer configured.
  - When Bzlmod is enabled, all Bzlmod-generated repos will have an
    extra '@' prepended to their names. This effectively enables the
    canonical label literal syntax for Bzlmod-generated repos
    (`@@canonicalRepoName//pkg:target`; see
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N81qfCa8oskCk5LqTW-LNthy6EBrDo
    t7bdUsjz6JFC4/edit?usp=sharing).
  - Exposed `CcSharedLibraryInfo` to Starlark builtins.
  - Enable --use_top_level_targets_for_symlinks by default.
  - Singlejar accepts runtime Created-By field
  - --noincompatible_disable_managed_directories, and with that,
    workspace(managed_directories=) is not supported anymore.
  - Bazel supports D8 desugaring, albeit without persistent workers
  - Remove mtime options from pkg_tar. Users should migrate to
    @rules_pkg.
  - Test for experimental multiplexed persistent resource processor.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - The legacy pkg_tar no longer supports the ability to untar and
    repackage an input tar file (`deps` attribute). Users needed that
    capability must switch to github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.
  - Change singlejar metadata to report Created-By Bazel
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.
  - Revert interface_deps back to implementation_deps after problem
    reported in. Use `buildozer 'rename deps implementation_deps'
    //...:%cc_library; buildozer 'rename interface_deps deps'
    //...:%cc_library`
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - D8 is the default desugarer
  - Migrate main_dex_list_creator to D8 (DX deprecation)
  - --experimental_enable_bzlmod has been renamed --enable_bzlmod,
    and still defaults to false.
  - selects() no longer produce irrelevant duplicate label checks
  - Adds a dexer output cache to CompatDexBuilder to improve build
    speed.
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code
  - The `@bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler` flag now has the value
    `gcc` if the configured compiler is detected to be gcc rather
    than the generic value `compiler`. A branch for `gcc` may have to
    be added to `select` statements that do not have a default case
    that handles gcc appropriately.
  - The `get_child` method of `path` now accepts an arbitrary
    number of relative path strings as positional arguments.
  - SourceManifestAction supports `Action.content`
  - Add --incompatible_build_transitive_python_runfiles alias. See
    #16303
  - The @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler flag now has the value
    `clang` for the auto-configured Xcode toolchain rather than the
    generic value compiler. A branch for `clang` may have to be added
    to select statements that do not have a default case that handles
    this toolchain appropriately.
  - added additional debug message to warn of skipped toolchains
    during resolution
  - The deprecated --remote_allow_symlink_upload flag has been
    removed. Symlinks in local action outputs are always permitted,
    even with remote caching. Whether they're uploaded as symlinks or
    as the files/directories they point to is still determined by the
    --incompatible_remote_symlinks flag.
  - Added `struct`, `json`, `proto`, and `depset` to the starlark
    environment of Bazel's cquery (--output=starlark) command
  - Added three `package_group`-related flags:
    `--incompatible_package_group_includes_double_slash` (#16391),
    `--incompatible_package_group_has_public_syntax` (#16355), and
    `--incompatible_fix_package_group_reporoot_syntax` (#16323). With
    these flags, `package_group` can now easily specify "all
    packages", "no packages", and "all packages in the current repo".
  - Record hermetic packaged JDK modules file size in deploy JAR
    manifest 'JDK-Lib-Modules-Size' attribute.
  - .bzl files may now set a visibility to guard what other .bzl and
    BUILD files may load them. See [...] for more information.
  - Deletes the --extra_proguard_specs Blaze flag
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes #13839

    Closes #16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes #13839

    Closes #16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes #13839

    Closes #16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

     Use ctime in file digest cache key (#18101)

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes #13839

    Closes #16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

     [5.4.1] Disable failing tests (#18123)

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes #16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes #13047.

    Closes #14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).

    Closes #14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes #14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on #15856

    Closes #15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes #15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16667.

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes bazelbuild#16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes bazelbuild#13047.

    Closes bazelbuild#14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (bazelbuild#14969).

    Closes bazelbuild#14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes bazelbuild#14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on bazelbuild#15856

    Closes bazelbuild#15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes bazelbuild#15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16667.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See #16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes #16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    #16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes #13839

    Closes #16626.

New features:

  - The aquery and cquery commands now respect the --query_file flag
    just like the query command.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards #16124
    Fixes #10923

    Closes #16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.
  - Adds coverage metric support to android_local_test
  - Fixed an issue where WORKSPACE and WORKSPACE-loaded .bzl files
    couldn't see the Bzlmod root module's mappings when Bzlmod is
    enabled.
  - Added `native.module_name()` and `native.module_version()` to
    allow BUILD macro authors to acquire information about which
    Bazel module the current repo is associated with.
  - `@foo` labels can now be used on the command line as the
    top-level target (that is, `bazel build @foo` now works).
    Double-dot syntax is now forbidden (`bazel build ../foo` will no
    longer work).
  - Added preliminary support for a lockfile for Bzlmod. It's
    disabled by default; use `--lockfile_mode=update` to enable it.
    This lockfile contains only Bazel module information; it does not
    involve module extensions.
  - Added a new `max_compatibility_level` attribute to the
    `bazel_dep` directive, which allows version selection to upgrade
    a dependency up to the specified compatibility level.

    Co-authored-by: Brentley Jones <github@brentleyjones.com>
  - `--experimental_remote_grpc_log` has been renamed to
    `--remote_grpc_log`

    Closes #18180.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

New features:

  - The aquery and cquery commands now respect the --query_file flag
    just like the query command.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.
  - Adds coverage metric support to android_local_test
  - Fixed an issue where WORKSPACE and WORKSPACE-loaded .bzl files
    couldn't see the Bzlmod root module's mappings when Bzlmod is
    enabled.
  - Added `native.module_name()` and `native.module_version()` to
    allow BUILD macro authors to acquire information about which
    Bazel module the current repo is associated with.
  - `@foo` labels can now be used on the command line as the
    top-level target (that is, `bazel build @foo` now works).
    Double-dot syntax is now forbidden (`bazel build ../foo` will no
    longer work).
  - Added preliminary support for a lockfile for Bzlmod. It's
    disabled by default; use `--lockfile_mode=update` to enable it.
    This lockfile contains only Bazel module information; it does not
    involve module extensions.
  - Added a new `max_compatibility_level` attribute to the
    `bazel_dep` directive, which allows version selection to upgrade
    a dependency up to the specified compatibility level.

    Co-authored-by: Brentley Jones <github@brentleyjones.com>
  - `--experimental_remote_grpc_log` has been renamed to
    `--remote_grpc_log`

    Closes bazelbuild#18180.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

   + 05984b9:

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.

Incompatible changes:

  - GrpcRemoteDownloader only includes relevant headers instead of
    sending all credentials.

    Closes bazelbuild#16439.
  - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes bazelbuild#13047.

    Closes bazelbuild#14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (bazelbuild#14969).

    Closes bazelbuild#14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes bazelbuild#14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on bazelbuild#15856

    Closes bazelbuild#15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes bazelbuild#15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16667.

Incompatible changes:

  - Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
    there is no cursor control.
  - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped
    to true. See bazelbuild#16654 for
    details.
  - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.

    Closes bazelbuild#16602.
  - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
    bazelbuild#16729 for details.
  - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
    configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
  - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
    configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
    configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)

    Fixes bazelbuild#13839

    Closes bazelbuild#16626.

New features:

  - The aquery and cquery commands now respect the --query_file flag
    just like the query command.

Important changes:

  - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
    `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
    accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
    is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
    works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
    on Windows by default).

    Work towards bazelbuild#16124
    Fixes bazelbuild#10923

    Closes bazelbuild#16428.
  - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
    code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
    invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
    Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
    string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
    emitted and no longer deduplicated.
  - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
    a cc_test
  - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
    converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
    calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
    context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
    relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.
  - Adds coverage metric support to android_local_test
  - Fixed an issue where WORKSPACE and WORKSPACE-loaded .bzl files
    couldn't see the Bzlmod root module's mappings when Bzlmod is
    enabled.
  - Added `native.module_name()` and `native.module_version()` to
    allow BUILD macro authors to acquire information about which
    Bazel module the current repo is associated with.
  - `@foo` labels can now be used on the command line as the
    top-level target (that is, `bazel build @foo` now works).
    Double-dot syntax is now forbidden (`bazel build ../foo` will no
    longer work).
  - Added preliminary support for a lockfile for Bzlmod. It's
    disabled by default; use `--lockfile_mode=update` to enable it.
    This lockfile contains only Bazel module information; it does not
    involve module extensions.
  - Added a new `max_compatibility_level` attribute to the
    `bazel_dep` directive, which allows version selection to upgrade
    a dependency up to the specified compatibility level.

  - `--experimental_remote_grpc_log` has been renamed to
    `--remote_grpc_log`

    Closes bazelbuild#18180.

novas0x2a added a commit to novas0x2a/rules_foreign_cc that referenced this issue Oct 4, 2023
Before this change, runnable_binary would only work on targets in
external repositories. This is due to a limitation of the rootpath
function, with more context in bazelbuild/bazel#10923

This switches the macro to use rlocationpath, which handles this
use-case. Using rlocationpath requires bazel 5.4.0, so this also updates
the docs accordingly.
