As part of this effort, we plan to submit https://bazel-review.googlesource.com/c/bazel/+/55932 soon, which will cause bazel by default to insist that the skylark versions the git and http rules for external repositories be used. This can be disabled by a flag for at least the next 6 months, but we still would appreciate if you could adopt your repository to use the Skylark versions of those rules soon.\r\n\r\nA test run of downstream projects with that flag flip in bazel enabled can be found at https://buildkite.com/bazel/bazel-with-downstream-projects-bazel/builds/286\r\n\r\nFor more background, see\r\n- the original announcement https://groups.google.com/d/topic/bazel-discuss/dO2MHQLwJF0/discussion\r\n- and the documentation of the incompatible changes https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#remove-native-git-repository\r\n\r\nThanks.\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bazelbuild/rules_sass/issues/comments/394827571","html_url":"https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_sass/issues/27#issuecomment-394827571","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bazelbuild/rules_sass/issues/27","id":394827571,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDM5NDgyNzU3MQ==","user":{"login":"nex3","id":188,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjE4OA==","avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/188?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3","html_url":"https://github.com/nex3","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nex3/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-06-05T19:15:29Z","updated_at":"2018-06-05T19:15:29Z","author_association":"CONTRIBUTOR","body":"As of #26, this package no longer supports LibSass, which is what it's using the native rules for.
