Add 'incompatible_default_to_explicit_init_py' flag This effectively changes the default value of legacy_create_init to false. Technically, the attribute type has changed from boolean (default true) to tristate (default auto). Therefore, it is possible to see a semantic change in code that introspects a py_binary's or py_test's attrs dict (via native.existing_rules). We think it is unlikely this will break anyone, and in any case it is not currently possible to gate a rule's definition on an incompatible change flag. Closes #9271. Work toward #7386 and #10076. RELNOTES: [Python] Added flag --incomaptible_default_to_explicit_init_py to switch the default value of legacy_create_init to True. With this flag enabled, your py_binary and py_test targets will no longer behave as if empty __init__.py files were implicitly littered in your runfiles tree.
