+
+Incompatible changes:
+
+  - The --experimental_process_wrapper_wait_fix flag (used
+    purely to roll out a risky bug fix) has been removed.
+  - Removed the --experimental_ui_deduplicate flag.
+  - Bazel now correctly prefers Xcode versions in `/Applications`
+    over any other paths, which resolves an issue with accidentally
+    picking up an Xcode version from a Time Machine backup or network
+    disk. In the improbable case that you relied on the old behavior
+    and Bazel now picks up Xcode from the wrong location, you can fix
+    it by moving that Xcode version to /Applications.
+
+New features:
+
+  - cquery now follows aspects with --include_aspects.
+  - cc_common.compile support for include_prefix/strip_include_prefix
+
+Important changes:
+
+  - Add support to bazel/crosstool for building arm64 on macos aka
+    darwin
+  - Add opt in 'oso_prefix_is_pwd' feature for Apple builds
+  - Add InstrumentedFilesInfo provider to Starlark globals.
+  - Fixed resource shrinking when <overlayable/> tags are used.
+  - Remove old incompatible flag
+    --incompatible_symlinked_sandbox_expands_tree_artifacts_in_runfile
+    s_tree.
+  - Update coverage configuration for Python, filegroup, and shell
+    script rules to distinguish between source and dependency
+    attributes.
+  - Add support to bazel/crosstool for building arm64e on macos aka
+    darwin
+  - Make filegroup always forward InstrumentedFilesProvider and not
+    collect any sources directly.
+  - Support signing key rotation in android_binary
+  - Remove legacy handling of --extra_checks
+  - Support signing key rotation in android_binary
+    GO...
+  - `--apple_bitcode` now takes an optional platform and only applies
+    the Bitcode mode to that platform if present. The option may be
+    provided multiple times.
+  - Support signing key rotation in android_binary
+  - NS_BLOCK_ASSERTIONS is now passed for all Apple architectures.
+  - Major changes to reporting of Starlark errors and the call stack.
+    (Please be alert to possible regressions, such as errors that
+    lack relevant location information.)
+  - Removed the flag --experimental_transparent_compression.
+  - Removed the flag --experimental_action_args.
+  - Stop needlessly parsing WORKSPACE files from external
+    repositories.
+  - Dot ('.') is now allowed in workspace names. See
