+ --all` instead.

+```
+Baseline: 9b8093bb4db3d6567e0f29eaa98fe16cd2e4a154

+
+Incompatible changes:
+
+ - Starlark computation step limits are now enforced for symbolic
+ macros.
+
+Important changes:
+
+ - java_import.jars attributes can no longer be empty, and
+ --noincompatible_disallow_java_import_empty_jars is no longer
+ supported
+ - Added `--verbose_visibility_errors` for printing more information
+ when a visibility violation occurs.
+ - Added a new flag `--repo_contents_cache` (defaults to the
+ `contents` directory under the `--repository_cache`) where Bazel
+ stores fetched contents of repos that can be safely cached across
+ workspaces. A repo rule can indicate cacheability by returning
+ `repository_ctx.repo_metadata(reproducible=True)` from its
+ implementation function.

+```
+
+Incompatible changes:
+
+ - The `--verbose_explanations` flag is now a no-op: the additional
+ information it produced wasn't useful enough to justify the
+ memory cost of the additional bookkeeping.

+Important changes:
+
+ - The deprecated License type is replaced with a string List.
+ This is a non-functional change for Bazel, but it does remove
+ some code.
+ - User-provided repo names may now start with a number.

+```
+Baseline: f2424778bf6b3043fc5729b6545c8189066f4ff7
+```
+
+Incompatible changes:
+
+ - When remote execution fails and an action is executed locally,
+ modifications of its inputs during execution are now checked
+ according to the value of the
+ `--guard_against_concurrent_changes` flag rather than as if that
+ flag was set to `full`.
+ - accessing struct providers is not supported anymore
