Feature Request: When showing suggestions, show the .bazelrc command

jschaf opened this issue · comments

For suggestions like:

Consider setting the Bazel flag --experimental_remote_build_event_upload=minimal to reduce the number of unnecessary cache uploads that Bazel might perform during a build

Consider showing the appropriate command like build, or common. It's not straightforward to figure out the command by looking at the bazel flag page since it's massive, and you can't tell what option a flag applies to.

Y'all know better than I do, but I'd guess the desired outcome is for the user to modify their bazelrc, so it might be worth showing the bazelrc directly.

This is good feedback - agreed that the suggestions should typically be places in your .bazelrc file
