Description of the bug:
In incremental builds, Bazel assumes any digest found to be valid in a previous execution will remain valid for a period of time. In particular, this is true even across invocations with
--remote_instance_name
set to different values. But if you're switching to a new remote instance, its contents will of course be different, so all cache digests ought to be invalidated. Otherwise, incremental builds with fail with spuriousSPAWN(REMOTE_CACHE_EVICTED)
errors.The same may apply to some other flags that control which cache instance Bazel communicates with, like
--remote_cache
