Documents four features across both legacy (
site/en/) and modern (docs/) documentation, keeping.mdand.mdxfiles in sync.Changes
.bazelrcimport depth limit (run/bazelrc): Documents the 512-level recursive import cap, the"Maximum import depth exceeded parsing config file"error, and theBAZEL_UNLIMITED_IMPORT_DEPTHenv var escape hatch.Bzlmod patch/overlay integrity enforcement (
external/registry): Clarifies that integrity checksum values forpatchesandoverlayentries insource.jsonmust be non-empty strings.Remote cache CDC chunking (
remote/caching): Adds a new "Chunked uploads and downloads (CDC)" section documenting--experimental_remote_cache_chunkingfor large blob transfers, noting the server-side support requirement.BEP parent-child ordering (
remote/bep): Replaces the old caveat ("not all parent events must be posted before child events") with the updated guarantee that BEP events are written respecting parent-child ordering constraints.Description
Four behavioral changes landed without corresponding documentation updates. This PR adds the missing documentation for each, with surgical edits (≤5 lines changed per file) to both format variants.
Motivation
Keeps end-user-facing docs accurate for the
.bazelrcimport depth limit, Bzlmod integrity enforcement, remote cache CDC support, and fixed BEP event ordering.Build API Changes
