* remote: rename auth flags.Gravatar Jakob Buchgraber2017-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | --auth_* flags only work with Google Cloud Authentication. That's confusing and restricts the naming of more general purpose authentication flags that we might want to add in the future. So instead of --auth_* let's call them --google_* (the old ones will continue working for a while). Also, --auth_enabled (aka --google_default_credentials) is no longer required when specifying --auth_credentials (aka --google_credentials). So now there's two simple ways to authenticate with Google Cloud: * bazel build --google_default_credentials * bazel build --google_credentials=creds.json RELNOTES: --auth_* flags were renamed to --google_* flags. The old names will continue to work for this release but will be removed in the next release. Change-Id: Ia1736f32e15a37995be3172cd9608d518ddeab44 PiperOrigin-RevId: 179700832

* Skylint: Add a warning for the `+` operator on depsets.Gravatar laurentlb2017-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In many cases, users do: d = depset() d += ... To catch this issue, we use a heuristic to find which variable is a depset (in theory, it could be reassigned - but it's unlikely and that would be error-prone anyway) RELNOTES: None. PiperOrigin-RevId: 179536463
* Add a Troubleshoot section for rulesGravatar laurentlb2017-12-15

* Remove the word 'Skylark' when it doesn't add any value.Gravatar laurentlb2017-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | The word Skylark tends to be overused. We should use it only when we refer to the language itself. In many places, the word 'Skylark' was used, even if the reader may not know it (e.g. "create a rule" is clearer than "create a Skylark rule"). RELNOTES: None. PiperOrigin-RevId: 179024448

| | | | | | | | RELNOTES[INC]: The flag --incompatible_list_plus_equals_inplace is removed, its default behavior is preserved. += on lists now always mutates the left hand side. PiperOrigin-RevId: 178359047
* New flag `--incompatible_depset_union` to disable old-style depset merging.Gravatar laurentlb2017-12-07
| | | | | | | RELNOTES: Using `+`, `|` or `.union` on depsets is now deprecated. Please use the new constructor instead (see https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/depsets.html). PiperOrigin-RevId: 178262338

* Replace fictional usernames with "johndoe".Gravatar lberki2017-12-07
| | | | | | | | Sounds a bit more neutral than either the username of an actual person (Ulf, in this case) or the abbreviation for "J. Random Luser". RELNOTES: None. PiperOrigin-RevId: 178224013

| | | | | | | | RELNOTES: The deprecated builtin `set` is no longer allowed even from within unexecuted code in bzl files. It's temporarily possible to use --incompatible_disallow_uncalled_set_constructor=false if this change causes incompatibility issues. PiperOrigin-RevId: 178087669

* Install instructions: emphasize that the distfile is architecture independentGravatar Klaus Aehlig2017-12-04
| | | | | | | | Explicitly emphasize that the distribution archive is architecture independent. In particular, users do not have to look for their architecture. This has led to confusions. Change-Id: If7c75fcde4ec85d5670eb2c893ffcb4be65e3c0c PiperOrigin-RevId: 177835486
* Move extra action flag docs into the Semantics section.Gravatar Benjamin Peterson2017-12-04
| | | | | | | Previously, they were in the Error checking options section, which doesn't seem correct. Change-Id: I1306da91cff01157963d56db267188bda7d57d4f PiperOrigin-RevId: 177835450
* Set default value of incompatible_load_argument_is_label to true.Gravatar laurentlb2017-12-04

* Remove unused adb_jobs flag.Gravatar Googler2017-11-30
| | | | | | | | Flag is mobile-insall v1 only, and has not been used in the last 30 days. This change is a NOP since the default value in //third_party/bazel/tools/android/incremental_install.py is 2. RELNOTES: None PiperOrigin-RevId: 177536782
