A Configuration Profile (or "group") is a collection of build options and
configuration rules. You can define such profiles by tagging
command-line options in your .bazelrc or user.bazelrc file and
activate them using the --config option.
Build options control Bazel itself; configuration rules are defined by the user and control the (Starlark) build program that executes within the Bazel environment.
For example:
This defines configuration profiles that can be activated by passing
--config=show or --config=showpp.
You can make these available to all Bazel projects by putting the directives in $HOME/.bazelrc.
Documentation on build options and --config are buried at the bottom
of
.bazelrc
syntax and semantics.
