Incompatible changes:

  - Blaze no longer generates xcode projects. Use tulsi.bazel.build
    instead.

Important changes:

  - Keyword-only syntax in a function definition is deprecated
      (e.g. `def foo(a, *, b)` or `def foo(a, *b, c)`) and will be
    removed in the future.
  - Attempting to build an Android target without setting up
    android_sdk_repository will now produce a helpful error message.
  - Adds a sha256 attribute to git_repository and new_git_repository.
    This can only be used if the remote is a public GitHub
    repository. It forces
    Bazel to download the repository as a tarball, which will often
    be faster and
    more robust than cloning it.
  - Sandboxing is now enabled by default on FreeBSD (via
    processwrapper-sandbox).
  - android_test may use manifest placeholders with 'manifest_merger
    = "android"'.
  - load() statements should be called at the top of .bzl files,
    before any
      other statement. This convention will be enforced in the future.
  - Effectively remove sysroot from CppConfiguration and allow it to
    use select statements.
  - proto_library.strict_proto_deps no longer exists.
  - Flag --explicit_jre_deps is now a noop.
  - The 'legacy' Android manifest merger is deprecated. Please
    upgrade to the 'android' manifest merger, which is the same
    merger used by Gradle.
    https://developer.android.com/studio/build/manifest-merge.html
  - Using $(CC_FLAGS) in a GenRule adds a dependency to the c++
    toolchain
  - add one-version enforcement to android_local_test
  - Skylark support (apple_common.dotted_version(string)) for
    building DottedVersion objects to interface with native apple
    rules
  - CC_FLAGS can be defined using 'cc-flags-make-variable' action_config in
    CROSSTOOL
  - ios_framework native rule has been removed. This rule had been
    essentially broken for several months now; users should be using
    the skylark ios framework rule.
    https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple has details.
  - Clean command no longer uses boolean values for --async,
    --expunge, and --expunge_async options.
  - Partially fixes external J2ObjC support.
  - '--aspects' can occur more than once on the command line.
  - --no_ prefix no longer recognized.
  - Use action_config in crosstool for static library archiving,
    remove ar_flag.
  - Added a new flag --sandbox_writable_path, which asks the sandbox
    to
    make an existing directory writable when running actions.
  - bazel test now also computes a default instrumentation filter if
    --collect_code_coverage is enabled
  - n/na
  - In .bzl files, top-level `if` statements are deprecated and will
    be forbidden
      in the future. Move them in a function body instead (or use a
    conditional
      expression instead: `x if condition else y`).
  - ios_device and ios_test are deprecated. Please use the new testing
    rules in https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple instead.
  - bazel query --output package now displays packages from external
    repository with the format "@reponame//package". Packages in the
    main repository continue to have the format "package".
  - ctx.expand_make_variables is deprecated.
  - Bazel posts links to the CAS to the BEP if remote caching /
    execution is enabled
  - `bazel info execution_root` returns the corrrect directory name
    for the execution root.
