Event Timeline
SGTM, I'm not sure if LLVM has any policy w/ bazel versions like it does for host toolchains or CMake. (Probably not, since bazel is not an officially supported build system for LLVM). As long as CI passes, this should be fine. Any specific reason you're bumping it?
It it looks like buildkite failed for some unrelated reason. Can you retry it? https://buildkite.com/llvm-project/diff-checks/builds/166476#0187a125-f96b-4f16-9b2c-65aa85b14e90
Any specific reason you're bumping it?
Yes. The 5.x releases don't work properly with bzlmod, a new module system for Bazel which will become the default with Bazel 7 later this year and deprecate the WORKSPACE setup.
5.x also has some legacy functionality around platform/toolchain resolution that's mostly gone in 6.0 and shouldn't be used anymore. AFAIK the llvm-overlay doesn't use any of that, so it should generally be fine to just bump versions upon release.
