Sync rules

What travels, what stays, what never leaves

Bazel in your home directory Every rule on this page, by file

# User-level Bazel options, applied to every workspace on this machine.

startup --output_user_root=/Users/octocat/.cache/bazel-outmachine-local

common --color=yes

common --curses=yes

build --disk_cache=/Users/octocat/.cache/bazel-diskmachine-local

build --repository_cache=/Users/octocat/.cache/bazel-repomachine-local

build --jobs=8

build --show_timestamps

build --keep_going

…

Each machine keeps its own copy of these.

Only what the catalog names. A directory that syncs brings everything inside it except what is listed as excluded here.

Same data, in the shape your tool already reads

Opens Otty and adds this tool to what it syncs

Opens otty://sync/add/bazel. Otty ships with this catalog, so the link only has to name the tool — nothing is downloaded.

Every one of these is generated from the same rules as this page. None of them splits startup --output_user_root and build --disk_cache for you — that part is Otty’s own sync, or a template you write by hand.
