Rollback of commit e0d7a540e3c615c628f63fcaaaba0c47fca2cb25. *** Reason for rollback *** Suspected root cause for Windows bootstrap on Bazel CI breakage: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.google.devtools.build.lib.vfs.Path$1.run(Path.java:123) http://ci.bazel.io/view/Bazel%20bootstrap%20and%20maintenance/job/Bazel/922/JAVA_VERSION=1.8,PLATFORM_NAME=windows-x86_64/console *** Original change description *** VFS: implement a Windows-specific Path subclass The new subclass WindowsFileSystem.WindowsPath is aware of Windows drives. This change: - introduces a new factory for Path objects so FileSystems can return a custom implementation that instantiates filesystem-specific Paths - implements the WindowsPath subclass of Path that is aware of Windows drives - introduces the bazel.windows_unix_root JVM argument that defines the MSYS root, which defines the absolute Windows path that is the... *** -- MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=136583352

Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
