Both SourceManifestAction and SymlinkTreeAction, the only users of Runfiles#fingerprint, emit absolute paths to runfiles artifacts in their output. This requires also including these paths in the action key computation to prevent incorrect incremental builds if --output_base changes.

Fixes #17267

@lberki I didn't manage to turn the reproducer in #17267 into an integration test (it always passes even without these changes), but confirmed manually that it fixes the issue.

In general, looks good, but @c-parsons might have an opinion about this, let me pull him in.

This looks good in principle, with one caveat: @c-parsons ran into a situation where it would be advantageous to be able to move Bazel output bases around in the file system while keeping as much cached as possible, and this makes that worse.

However, I think it's for the better, because it just makes the reality that the absolute path of the source tree is an input of what the source manifes action does more obvious, so let's go ahead; I'll wait for a confirmation from @c-parsons , but I'd be surprised if he had an objection.

Out of curiosity, how come you haven't been able to write an integration test? I thought it would be pretty easy to wrap the reproduction at https://github.com/JesseTatasciore/bazel-manifest-caching-repro into a test case.

Tried this again and now the test is failing without and passing with the change. Not sure what I got wrong on the first attempt.

@lberki Should I just skip the test on Windows? I don't know whether it's possible to get the unmangled PWD in Bash on Windows.

@meteorcloudy maybe you have an idea? I'm not very enthusiastic about skipping the test on Windows due to the difficulty of debugging Windows-only issues.

Looks alright, modulo one nit and that I haven't heard from @c-parsons ; if he doesn't weigh in until tomorrow, let's assume he's fine with it.

nit: symlinking $TEST_FOLDER_2 to $TEST_FOLDER_1 makes it more obvious that the two are the same

I am copying the contents now. I think that symlinking wouldn't work as the "same workspace, same output root" case didn't result in any issues even before this change.

I thought that Bazel doesn't resolve symlinks in the name of the workspace, but you're right -- copying is the obviously correct option.

We are using msys2 on windows, you can use cygpath to convert the path to a format that is understandable on Windows. For example, cygpath -m /c/foo/bar converts it to C:/foo/bar.

cat: bazel-bin/hello_world.runfiles_manifest: No such file or directory

It's bazel-bin/hello_world.exe.runfiles_manifest on Windows

I asked @c-parsons to weigh in and given that he didn't and that to the best of my knowledge, his use case is not hampered by this change, let's merge it.

No worries, we are doing the same at Google (it just takes a bit of time, sorry about that)
