There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thank! Can you add a test for this somewhere?

… misses Recursively remove files from OUT_DIR whose names appear in the `//cargo/settings:out_dir_volatile_file_basenames` string_list_flag, or have a .d or .pc extension, before Bazel captures OUT_DIR as a TreeArtifact. The flag value (default: config.log, config.log.old, config.status, Makefile, Makefile.config, config.cache, commit_hash, jemalloc-config, jemalloc.sh) is passed to the runner via the `RULES_RUST_OUT_DIR_VOLATILE_BASENAMES` env var. The runner reads the env var at runtime; if absent, no named-file removal occurs (extension-based removal of .d and .pc files is unconditional). These files embed sandbox-specific paths, timestamps, or volatile values that make the TreeArtifact hash non-deterministic, causing cache misses for all downstream rustc compilations on every action run. An integration test verifies both that legitimate outputs survive and that each category of volatile file is absent from the captured TreeArtifact.
