Automated rollback of commit
00a4fefe594069d47d1bde99b28c6b8dcca0a7c1.
Incompatible changes:
- `--incompatible_check_sharding_support` is enabled by default.
Sharded tests with test runners that do not properly advertise
support for test sharding will fail. Refer to
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/18339 for migration
advice.
Important changes:
- Options specified on the pseudo-command `common` in `.rc` files
are now ignored by commands that do not support them as long as
they are valid options for *any* Bazel command. Previously,
commands that did not support all options given for `common`
would fail to run. These previous semantics of `common` are now
available via the new `always` pseudo-command.
- the 'default' param of json.decode can now be used as a keyword
parameter.
- As a transitional step in a larger refactoring, rule transitions
are applied twice. Once during dependency resolution and once
right before
analysis of those rules. After the refactoring is complete, rule
transitions
will be applied only once.
