        to
        ```
        ERROR: Build did NOT complete successfully

      - the --experimental_async_execution flag is now a no-op.
      - --experimental_replay_action_out_err is not a no-op.
      - `cquery --output=files` also outputs source files.
      - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
        https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16729 for details.
      - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
        https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16729 for details.
      - `--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data` is flipped to true.
        See https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16654 for details.
      - This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
        configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets.
      - When multiple --deleted_packages options are passed on the
        command line, they will be concatenated instead of the latest one
        taking effect.
      - This has the side effect of changing the message on unsuccessful
        builds from
      - JSON profile: Use doubles instead of strings for counter series.
      - query --output=proto --order_output=deps now returns targets in
        topological order (previously there was no ordering).
      - --experimental_build_transitive_python_runfiles is flipped to
        false. See #16303 for details
      - --incompatible_python_disable_py2 is flipped to true. See #17293
        for details.
      - When remote cache evicts blobs, Bazel will exit with code 39.
      - `--features` only applies to targets built in the target
        configuration, and `--host_features` is used for the host / exec
        configuration (gated behind `--incompatible_use_host_features`)
      - `--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks` is flipped to true. See
        https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16729 for details.
      - Bazel's local CPU resource on Linux is now container aware. Use
        `--local_cpu_resources`, `--loading_phase_threads` or `--jobs` to
        override.
      - `copy_from_rule` is exec_groups is deprecated
        (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/17668).
      - --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
      - --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
      - --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
      - `--experimental_execution_graph_log` no longer exists. Current
        users that want local logs need to pass
        `--experimental_enable_execution_graph_log
        --experimental_execution_graph_log_path=/some/local/path`.
        Current users that want logs uploaded to BEP need to pass
        `--experimental_enable_execution_graph_log
        --experimental_stream_log_file_uploads`.
      - Remove 'darwin' as a CPU value, use 'darwin_x86_64' instead
      - Remove high priority workers functionality from blaze.
    
    New features:
    
      - The `aquery` and `cquery` commands now respect the
        `--query_file` flag just like the `query` command.
    
    Important changes:
    
      - The new path variable `$(rlocationpath ...)` and its plural form
        `$(rlocationpaths ...)` can be used to expand labels to the paths
        accepted by the `Rlocation` function of runfiles libraries. This
        is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
        works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
        on Windows by default).
      - Starlark `print()` statements are now emitted iff the line of
        code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
        invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
        Additionally, multiple identical `print()` statements (same
        string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
        emitted and no longer deduplicated.
      - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
        a cc_test
      - removed outdated ctx.host_fragments
      - removed outdated ctx.host_configuration
      - Now that the host configuration is finished, `genrule` should
        prefer the use of `tools` and stop using `exec_tools`.
      - Added a `native.package_relative_label()` function, which
        converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
        calling package, in contrast to `Label()`, which does so in the
        context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
        relative labels such as `:foo`, and are idempotent.
      - Update Android manifest merger to v30.1.3, and also drop support
        for legacy (pre-D8) desugaring.
      - Adds coverage metric support to android_local_test
      - Correctly encode double value positive infinity as "inf" instead
        of "+inf" for textprotos.
      - Add --use_target_platform_for_tests which uses the target
        platform for executing tests instead of the execution platform.
      - Custom C++ rules on Windows calling
        cc_common.create_linking_context_from_compilation_outputs should
        review whether each target of the rule type should produce a
        dynamic library since a condition which blocked their creation
        has been moved to the rules from behind the API.
      - Add flag `--experimental_remote_cache_ttl` and set the default
        value to 3 hours.
      - making --incompatible_use_platforms_repo_for_constraints do
        nothing. Using constraints from @bazel_tools//platforms with or
        without the flag will throw error with message "Constraints from
        @bazel_tools//platforms have been removed. Please use constraints
        from @platforms repository embedded in Bazel, or preferably
        declare dependency on https://github.com/bazelbuild/platforms"
      - Fixed an issue where WORKSPACE and WORKSPACE-loaded .bzl files
        couldn't see the Bzlmod root module's mappings when Bzlmod is
        enabled.
      - Subsequent settings of --extra_execution_platforms now override
        previous settings, instead of adding them to a list. If you
        currently set --extra_execution_platforms more than once, please
        migrate by passing a list of values to
        --extra_execution_platforms instead so that earlier values aren't
        overwritten.
      - @bazel_tools//config:common_settings.bzl has been removed.
        Use @bazel_skylib//rules:common_settings.bzl instead.
      - cc_shared_library is no longer experimental, see
        https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16709 for details
      - The flag `--distinct_host_configuration` is removed. It has been
        a no-op since Bazel 6.0.0.
      - Added `native.module_name()` and `native.module_version()` to
        allow BUILD macro authors to acquire information about which
        Bazel module the current repo is associated with.
      - Add `--skip_incompatible_explicit_targets` option
      - Remove 'darwin' as a CPU value, use 'darwin_x86_64' instead
      - cc_test can now be configured by using a native.toolchain().
      - `@foo` labels can now be used on the command line as the
        top-level target (that is, `bazel build @foo` now works).
        Double-dot syntax is now forbidden (`bazel build ../foo` will no
        longer work).
      - The location of rules that explicitly specify `generator_name`
        and/or `generator_function` attributes (typically because they
        are incidentally copied from `native.existing_rule()`) is now the
        top-level call in the `BUILD` file, which is consistent with
        rules that do not explicitly specify these attributes.
      - Warnings (most notably those associated with the `deprecation`
        rule attribute) are no longer replayed on subsequent invocations
        unless the target in question is re-analyzed. Warnings are purely
        informational, so this change has no bearing on the correctness
        of the build. Downstream tests that break due to this change
        should update their expectations.
      - `--experimental_remote_build_event_upload` has been renamed to
        `--remote_build_event_upload`
      - [Breaking change] platform, constraint_setting, and
        constraint_value can no longer take an applicable_licenses value.
        Remediation is to remove the attribute and rely on the package
        level default.
      - `--experimental_action_cache_store_output_metadata` has been
        renamed to `--action_cache_store_output_metadata`
      - Changed the default value for `--remote_build_event_upload` to
        `minimal`.
