+###############
+# Removes the Bazel output base and ninja file.
+# This is intended to solve an issue when a build top is moved.
+# Starlark symlinks are absolute and a moved build top will have many
+# dangling symlinks and fail to function as intended.
+# If the bazel output base is removed WITHOUT the top moving,
+# then any subsequent builds will fail as soong_build will not rerun.
+# Removing the ninja file will force a re-execution.
+#
+# You MUST lunch again after moving your build top, before running this.
