Dec 1, 2025

December 2025 Monthly Summary: Delivered cross-repo Swift tooling enhancements, static analysis upgrades, and indexing improvements that enhance build reliability, code quality, and maintainability for Swift and mixed-language projects. Key results include Bazel build integration for swift-system 1.6.3, XcodeProj 9.6.0 support, Periphery 3.3.0 upgrades with presubmit checks, and ObjC protocol indexing accuracy improvements. Added XcodeProj 9.7.1 compatibility for Bazel Central Registry to support latest Xcode projects. These changes collectively reduce build failures, accelerate CI feedback, and improve maintainability across grpc/bazel-central-registry, bazelbuild/bazel-central-registry, mrousavy/swift, chenrui333/homebrew-core, and related tooling.

July 2025

1 Commits

Jul 1, 2025

July 2025 focused on stabilizing module resolution in rules_swift by implementing a Swift 6.2-compliant module map merging strategy. The fix consolidates Swift and Clang module descriptions into a single entry per module, addressing the requirement for unique module names. This reduces duplication, prevents clashes during module resolution, and lowers CI churn across the repository.
