+Incompatible changes:
+
+ - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
+ that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
+ are many instances in the wild since the path would refer to a
+ netrc file inside the external repository by absolute path.
+ Migration should be straightforward.
+ - genrule switched to use exec transition instead of host. This can
+ break targets with hardcoded output paths. To avoid using
+ hardcoded paths use make variables, see
+ https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.2.2/be/make-variables.html#pre
+ defined_label_variables
+ - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive
+ that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there
+ are many instances in the wild since...
+ - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
+ methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
+ `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
+ - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional
+ methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using
+ `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF`
+ - The --incompatible_existing_rules_immutable_view flag has been
+ flipped to true. See
+ https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/13907 for
+ migration notes.
+
+Important changes:
+
+ - Deprecate --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag, in preparation
+ for removal in Bazel 6.x.
+ - Treat py_*.srcs_version="PY2" the same as "PY2ONLY".
+ - The Build Event Protocol now contains file digests and sizes
+ along with the file name and URI.
+ - Refactor system suspend event handling.
+ - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()
+ - Allow \a \b \f \v escape sequences in Starlark.
+ - Match remote and local xcode version by most granular version.
+ - Adds `--experimental_worker_multiplex_sandboxing` flag that
+ controls whether to sandbox multiplex workers that support it.
+ - provider() has a new parameter: init, a callback for performing
+ pre-processing and validation of field values. Iff this parameter
+ is set,
+ provider() returns a tuple of 2 elements: the usual provider
+ symbol (which,
+ when called, invokes init) and a raw constructor (which bypasses
+ init).
+ - Tests that fail to create or complete their
+ `TestAttemptContinuation` by
+ throwing an `ExecException` will report an `INCOMPLETE` status.
+ Previously, Bazel
+ would fail to report any status for the test attempt.
+ - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
+ in coverage mode without actually running the test.
+ - Include more information about configurations in cquery proto
+ formatted output. This deprecates the configuration field of
+ AnalysisProtosV2.ConfiguredTarget, and adds a new field,
+ configuration_id, to
+ be used instead.
+ - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
+ interface_deps
+ - In aquery and cquery proto output, indicate if a configuration is
+ a
+ tool or non-tool configuration.
+ - Include complete configurations in cquery proto output.
+ - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to
+ interface_deps
+ - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
+ - Add some documentation about how configuration information is
+ conveyed in cquery proto output.
+ - Introduces experimental static library linking API under
+ apple_common.link_multi_arch_static_library
+ - Further deprecation and removal of pkg_tar. Stop supporting
+ legacy use of 'files' attribute, where it could be a list of
+ labels instead of a map of paths to labels.
+ - Removed --incompatible_no_build_defs_pkg flag. It never fulfilled
+ its purpose because --all_incompatible_changes would never set
+ it. The last rule it gated (pkg_tar) is scheduled to be removed
+ in Bazel 6.x.
+ - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
+ output_generator label.
+ - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
+ reports (#14969).
+ - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to
+ $ANDROID_HOME.
+ - The default dexer is now d8. dx can be optionally enabled using:
+ --define=android_dexmerger_tool=dx_dexmerger \
+ --define=android_incremental_dexing_tool=dx_dexbuilder \
+ --define=android_standalone_dexing_tool=dx_compat_dx \
+ --use_workers_with_dexbuilder
+ - Packaging support for deploy JAR embedded JDK files (hermetic
+ Java).
+ - Don't stamp cc_common.link actions for tool dependencies.
+ - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
+ parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
+ variables
+ whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.
+ - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
+ the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
