Replace query option --order_results with --order_output, which can take three values for a given output formatter: 'no', 'deps', or 'full'. A fourth value, 'auto', means either 'deps' or 'full' depending on the formatter.

The option 'no' is equivalent to --noorder_results. 'full' means that output will be deterministically ordered, using alphabetization if necessary. 'deps' means that graph order will be preserved (where applicable), but further efforts to order the output may not be undertaken. 'auto' is equivalent to 'full' for all output formatters except for proto, minrank, maxrank, and graph, for which it is equivalent to 'deps'.

The purpose of this cl is to enable genquery to force completely deterministic output, which requires that it be able to specify a total ordering on the graph that is consistent across runs. Which ordering doesn't matter very much, so depending on the output formatter, or even within the same one, there may be some groups of nodes that are ordered alphabetically, and some reverse alphabetically.

Bazel (Alpha)

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

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.
