* Package name : golang-github-bazelbuild-bazelisk

Description : A user-friendly launcher for Bazel.
Bazelisk is a user-friendly wrapper/launcher 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.
.
Before Bazelisk was rewritten in Go, it was a Python script. This still works
and has the advantage that you can run it on any platform that has a Python
interpreter, but is currently unmaintained and it doesn't support as many features.
