  • The bazel-* line should not start with a /, as the root of the bazel source tree is not necessarily the root of the repo.
  • Gazelle-specific rule: Gazelle has an option to accept several different filenames as BUILD files; they don't even have to be named BUILD.*. It will use the first name in the rule for the files it generates. Some people prefer not to store generated files in the repo, hence this rule.

Reasons for making this change:

Better rules for bazel
