BAZEL_STABLE_STATUS_FILE and BAZEL_VOLATILE_STATUS_FILE should contain absolute paths #1218

Description

@matthewjh

Currently BAZEL_STABLE_STATUS_FILE and BAZEL_VOLTAILE_STATUS_FILE are set in the env for stamp-aware build actions like run_binary. The trouble, these are set to relative paths from the execroot e.g. bazel-out/volatile-status.txt, which is not so helpful if..

  • Using rules_js, where build actions run in the BINDIR and not the execroot
  • Using rules with custom chdir settings

To eliminate the need for any path foo, it would be more helpful if these provided absolute filepaths that could be read as-is regardless of context.
