Remove deps hack #33

Closed ash2k closed 6 years ago

amckague commented 6 years ago

Mind documenting the original problem and how it's fixed now?

ash2k commented 6 years ago

It is basically a revert of https://github.com/atlassian/bazel-tools/pull/22. We don't need that workaround anymore.

We were using to trigger template re-processing when a dependency, on which we couldn't depend explicitly, changed. Now we can depend on it explicitly and we don't need this workaround. Also, it never worked for changing volatile variables.
