Pants

Is there an alternative name to the BUILD file recommended on the documentation besides `BUILD.pants` that you guys recall?

Hi! This should be configurable: <https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-global#section-build-patterns>

Some other ideas:
• `PANTS`
• `METADATA`

I didn't mean for me to use, I'm asking possible popular names

that facility has been used for multiple things, and each of them will have a suffix that makes more sense. the original usecase was to divide open source code from closed source code in a monorepo

in which case `BUILD.oss` or `BUILD.private`, depending which is in the majority

but also useful for migrations from, say, bazel or buck to pants (or vice versa. *cough)
