Automated rollback of commit 16465d7613348e39e0bcdb22697cf67d257a3d91.

*** Reason for rollback ***

We need to reconsider this.

https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/per-directory-case-sensitivity-and-wsl/ says case-sensitivity can be set per-directory. Requiring correct casing for every directory would make Bazel behave the same on Linux and Windows, and work with WSL-created paths.

*** Original change description ***

glob() now supports case-insensitive mode

The behavior is triggered by
FileSystem.isGlobCaseSensitive() returning false.

None of the production FileSystem implementaitions
return false yet, only some test implementations.

Motivation is to support case-insensitive glob()
on Windows.

See https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/8705 and https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/8759.

Next we need to add an incompatible flag that
enables this behavior, and add a relevant bit to
the WindowsFileSystem. See https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/8767

We must also warn the user somehow if enabling
this feature would change the result of some
globs. A potential approach would be to glob
case-sensitively and case-insensitively at the
same time and warn the user if the results are
different.

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.

  • Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds.

  • One tool, multiple languages: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go, and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

  • Scalable: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase, and continuous integration solution. It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo.

  • Extensible to your needs: Easily add support for new languages and platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language rules written by the growing Bazel community.
