12/27/2022, 9:23 PMI see, so the Bazel doesn't have this OOTB, and external tooling is required to find impacted targets?

12/27/2022, 9:29 PMDoes Bazel have the --changed-since feature of Pants? 😕Why sad face? We want a world where people have great build experiences, regardless of if that's via Pants, Earthly, Bazel, etc 🙂

12/27/2022, 9:31 PMwasn't sure whether that's what Bazel provides OOTB or a plugin is needed. Feels like a basic feature to have (having experienced it with Pants), so wondered why a plugin was written 🙂
