winget install --id Bazel.BazeliskAbout Bazelisk
Bazelisk is a wrapper for Bazel written in Go. It automatically picks a good version of Bazel given your current working directory, downloads it from the official server (if required) and then transparently passes through all command-line arguments to the real Bazel binary. You can call it just like you would call Bazel.
What's new in 1.29.0
Bazelisk v1.29.0 comes with new features and several improvements: New Features (Go Binary) - Official Bazel releases will be authenticated via an embedded verification key (#192). - Bazelisk now supports the bazeliskVersion command so that users can see the Bazelisk version without having to download/run Bazel (#763). New Features (Go Library) - Callers can now capture stderr via an io.Writer (#751). Bug Fixes & Improvements (Go) - On non-Windows machines Bazelisk will be run via exec instead of in a subprocess (#566). - Bazelisk releases now come with sha256 checksums (#770).
