compile_pip_requirements on Windows (GitHub workers) fails; bug is probably in the runfiles library

python/runfiles/runfiles.pyから始め、特にCurrentRepositoryとRlocationを確認してから、private/pypi/dependency_resolver/dependency_resolver.pyを調べ、リンク先のWindowsの例で発生する失敗を再現してください。runfilesのルートと呼び出し元が異なるドライブ上にある場合でも、GitHubのWindowsワーカーでcompile_pip_requirementsが成功し、そのケースのcoverageがあることが完了の条件です。

🐞 bug report

Affected Rule

The issue is caused by the rule: compile_pip_requirements (but probably an issue in the runfiles library)

Is this a regression?

Yes, the previous version in which this bug was not present was: 1.7.0

Description

On the GitHub workers on MS-Windows, compile_pip_requirements rules fail with an error such as

  File "C:\Users\RUNNER~1\AppData\Local\Temp\Bazel.runfiles_flx90ick\runfiles\rules_python+\python\runfiles\runfiles.py", line 306, in Rlocation
    source_repo = self.CurrentRepository(frame=2)
