Description of the feature request:
The http_archive/file/jar rules read the user's .netrc file in order to authenticate, as of 7.1.0. Presumably as a consequence of this, the netrc file appears in external repo marker files. This means that changes to the netrc file cause re-fetching of these dependencies.
Which category does this issue belong to?
External Dependency
What underlying problem are you trying to solve with this feature?
Changes to .netrc should not cause re-fetching of external dependencies that have been successfully fetched.
Which operating system are you running Bazel on?
