Release 3.7.0 (2020-10-20)
Baseline: a991db7c2f66a354666388d888dcef9b0d0f70c0
Incompatible changes:
- The syntax //foo/BUILD can no longer be used on the command line
to refer to the //foo:BUILD target. Use //foo:BUILD (preferred)
or foo/BUILD instead. This does not affect BUILD/bzl files, where
that syntax already didn't work.
- This removes `--objc_header_scanner_tool`. The flag was primarily
used internally, and to our knowledge, a compatible tool was
never released. Therefore this flag is believed to be unused.
New features:
- select() directly supports constraint_value (no need for an
intermediate config_setting).
Important changes:
- Non-android targets can again be built when
android_sdk_repository is present but invalid.
- Add a build variable for -install_name / -soname.
- Add a build variable for -install_name / -soname.
- Include "resources" attr in dependency attributes for java_*
coverage configuration.
- --trim_test_configuration should work for almost all cases when a
non-test target depends on a test.
- Javac now supports multiplex workers.
- Javac now supports multiplex workers.
- Blaze now allows symbolic links that point to their own ancestor
unless they are traversed recursively by e.g. a //... recursive
target pattern or a recursive glob.

```
+Incompatible changes:
+
+ - `--experimental_ui_limit_console_output` is removed. Users of
+ `--experimental_ui_limit_console_output=1` for silencing terminal
+ output should use `--ui_event_filters=` instead.
+ - --proto:instantiation_stack must be enabled in addition to
+ --record_rule_instantiation_callstack to see call stack in proto
+ output from blaze query.
+
New features:
- cc_common.compile support for include_prefix/strip_include_prefix
+ - Multiplexed persistent workers: Use
+ --experimental_worker_max_multiplex_instances to configure the
+ number of WorkRequests that are sent concurrently to one worker
+ process. The --worker_max_instances flag will no longer be used
+ to determine max instances for multiplex workers, since the two
+ have different resource requirements. Multiplex workers will by
+ default have a max instances of 8.
Important changes:
+ - The prelude file (//tools/build_rules:prelude_bazel) is now
+ processed as a Starlark module, rather than being sourced into
+ the BUILD file textually. This may cause slight breakages
+ depending on the content of the prelude file. (Use of the prelude
+ file is discouraged as it will be removed in the long term.)
+ - Removed --experimental_ignore_deprecated_instrumentation_spec and
+ cleaned up the old deprecated behavior.
+ - Added CODEBASE.md, a description of the Bazel codebase.
- Removed the flag --experimental_transparent_compression.
- Removed the flag --experimental_action_args.
- Stop needlessly parsing WORKSPACE files from external
repositories.
- Dot ('.') is now allowed in workspace names. See
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/11837.
+ - This change can cause memory and performance regressions for some
+ builds with C++ dependencies, due to extra actions being executed.
+ RELNOTES: None
+ - Building Android apps for legacy multi-dex (pre-L) now require a
+ main-dex list if the application does not fit into a single DEX
+ file.
+ - Puts the experimental_worker_multiplex flag to use.
+ - In Starlark, the Args object supports a new parameter file format
+ 'flag_per_line', compatible with the Abseil flags library.
+ - The flag --incompatible_no_support_tools_in_action_inputs is
+ removed.
+ - Support for NDK 21 added
+ - Bazel will now skip printing action stdout/stderr contents if
+ they exceed --experimental_ui_max_stdouterr_memory_bytes.
+ - The Starlark interpreter now correctly emits an error
+ if the operand of the first loop in a list comprehension
+ refers to a variable bound by a later loop, such as y in
+ this example:
+ [e1 for x in f(y) in e2 for y in e3] # error: undefined y
+ ^
+ This may cause latent dynamic errors to become static errors.
+ - Added support for a 'supports-graceful-termination' execution
+ requirement and tag, which causes Bazel to send a SIGTERM to any
+ tagged
+ actions before sending a delayed SIGKILL. This is to give
+ actions, and more
+ specifically tests, a chance to clean up after themselves.
+ - Non-android targets can again be built when
+ android_sdk_repository is present but invalid.
