Description

Documentation URL: https://docs.bazel.build/versions/3.7.0/cpp-use-cases.html

As described by C++ project with Bazel and GTest, googletest v1.10.x has a BUILD file. If git_repository is used, there is no need to create gtest.BUILD.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Update the documentation at the given URL to remove the gtest.BUILD workaround, as googletest v1.10.x now includes its own BUILD file.
