+Incompatible changes:
+
+  - //src:bazel uses the minimal embedded JDK, if you want to
+    avoid the extra steps of minimizing the JDK, use //src:bazel-dev
+    instead.
+  - //src:bazel uses the minimal embedded JDK, if you want to
+    avoid the extra steps of building bazel with the minimized JDK,
+    use //src:bazel-dev
+    instead.
+  - The default value of --host_platform and --platforms will be
+      changed to not be dependent on the configuration. This means
+    that setting
+      --cpu or --host_cpu will not affect the target or host platform.
+  - Toolchain resolution for cc rules is now enabled via an
+    incompatible flag, --incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution.
+    The previous
+    flag, --enabled_toolchain_types, is deprecated and will be
+    removed.
+  - java_(mutable_|)proto_library: removed strict_deps attribute.
+  - Python rules will soon reject the legacy "py" struct provider
+    (preview by enabling --incompatible_disallow_legacy_py_provider).
+    Upgrade rules to use PyInfo instead. See
+    [#7298](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7298).
+  - java_(mutable_|)proto_library: removed strict_deps attribute.
+  - Two changes to native Python rules: 1) `default_python_version`
+    and `--force_python` are deprecated; use `python_version` and
+    `--python_version` respectively instead. You can preview the
+    removal of the deprecated names with
+    --incompatible_remove_old_python_version_api. See
+    [#7308](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7308). 2) The
+    version flag will no longer override the declared version of a
+    `py_binary` or `py_test` target. You can preview this new
+    behavior with --incompatible_allow_python_version_transitions.
+    See [#7307](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7307).
+
+Important changes:
+
+  - There is a new flag available
+    `--experimental_java_common_create_provider_enabled_packages`
+    that acts as a whitelist for usages of
+    `java_common.create_provider`. The constructor will be deprecated
+    in Bazel 0.23.
+  - [#7024] Allow chaining of the same function type in aquery.
+  - Introduces --local_{ram,cpu}_resources, which will take the place
+    of --local_resources.
+  - [#6930] Add documentation for the aquery command.
+  - Incompatible flag `--incompatible_dont_emit_static_libgcc` has
+    been flipped (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/6825)
+  - Incompatible flag `--incompatible_linkopts_in_user_link_flags`
+    has been flipped (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/6826)
+  - Flag --incompatible_range_type is removed.
+  - Flag --incompatible_disallow_slash_operator is removed.
+  - Flag --incompatible_disallow_conflicting_providers is removed.
+  - `--incompatible_disallow_data_transition` is now enabled by
+    default
+  - Allow inclusion of param files in aquery output
+  - [#6985] Add test to verify aquery's behavior for Cpp action
+    templates.
+  - --incompatible_require_feature_configuration_for_pic was flipped
+    (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7007).
+  - Also ignore module-info.class in multi-version Jars
+  - objc_framework has been deleted. Please refer to
+    apple_dynamic_framework_import and apple_static_framework_import
+    rules available in
+    [rules_apple](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple/blob/maste
+    r/doc/rules-general.md)
+  - --test_sharding_strategy=experimental_heuristic is no more
+  - objc_bundle_library has been removed. Please migrate to
+    rules_apple's
+    [apple_resource_bundle](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple/
+    blob/master/doc/rules-resources.md#apple_resource_bundle).
+  - You can now use the attribute `aapt_version` or the flag
+    `--android_aapt` to pick the aapt version for android_local_test
+    tests
+  - In --keep_going mode, Bazel now correctly returns a non-zero exit
+    code when encountering a package loading error during target
+    pattern parsing of patterns like "//foo:all" and "//foo/...".
+  - The default value for --incompatible_strict_action_env has been
+    flipped to 'false' again, as we discovered breakages for local
+    execution users. We'll need some more time to figure out the best
+    way to make this work for local and remote execution. Follow
+    https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7026 for more details.
+  - Locally-executed spawns tagged "no-cache" no longer upload their
+    outputs to the remote cache.
+  - Introduces --host_compiler flag to allow setting a compiler for
+    host compilation when --host_crosstool_top is specified.
+  - --incompatible_expand_directories is enabled by default
+  - [aquery] Handle the case of aspect-on-aspect.
+  - Fixed a longstanding bug in the http remote cache where the value
+    passed to
+    --remote_timeout would be interpreted as milliseconds instead of
+    seconds.
+  - Enable --incompatible_use_jdk10_as_host_javabase by default, see
+    https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/6661
+  - Add --incompatible_use_jdk11_as_host_javabase: makes JDK 11 the
+    default --host_javabase for remote jdk
+    (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7219)
+  - Highlight TreeArtifact in aquery text output.
+  - Locally-executed spawns tagged "no-cache" no longer upload their
+    outputs to the remote cache.
+  - java_common APIs now accept JavaToolchainInfo and JavaRuntimeInfo
+    instead of configured targets for java_toolchain and java_runtime
+  - cc_common.create_cc_toolchain_config_info is stable and available
+    for production use
+  - incompatible_use_toolchain_providers_in_java_common: pass
+    JavaToolchainInfo and JavaRuntimeInfo providers to java_common
+    APIs instead of configured targets
+    (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7186)
+  - --incompatible_strict_argument_ordering is enabled by default.
+  - Bazel now supports reading cache hits from a repository cache,
+    even if it doesn't have write access to the cache.
+  - Adding arm64e to OSX CROSSTOOL.
+  - Ignore package-level licenses on config_setting.
+  - Add an optional output_source_jar parameter to java_common.compile
+  - --incompatible_disable_objc_provider_resources is now enabled by
+    default. This disables ObjcProvider's fields related to resource
+    processing.
+  - Explicitly set https.protocols and exclude TLSv1.3.
+  - Bazel now validates that JAVA_HOME points to a valid JDK and
+    falls back to auto-detection by looking up the path of `javac`.
+  - Upgrade the embedded JDK version to 11.0.2.
+  - Added --incompatible_disable_crosstool_file
+    (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7320)
+  - --incompatible_disable_objc_provider_resources is now enabled by
+    default. This disables ObjcProvider's fields related to resource
+    processing.
+  - --incompatible_disable_tools_defaults_package has been flipped.
+  - For tests that do not generate a test.xml, Bazel now uses a
+    separate action to generate one; this results in minor
+    differences in the generated test.xml, and makes the generation
+    more reliable overall.
+  - incompatible_generate_javacommon_source_jar: java_common.compile
+    now always generates a source jar, see
+    https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/5824.
+  - New incompatible flag
+    --incompatible_disallow_struct_provider_syntax removes the
+    ability for rule implementation functions to return struct. Such
+    functions should return a list of providers instead. Migration
+    tracking: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7347
