+"""Config settings for compilers identified by Bazel.
+
+Targets that require compiler-specific flags can use the config_settings defined
+in this package in their select() statements.
+
+*Note*: Before Bazel 6, gcc on Linux and clang on macOS would not match their
+specific config_setting, but only the fallback case of a select expression.
+
+Toolchains not shipped with Bazel are encouraged to use the same names to
+identify compilers as used below, but this is not enforced.
+
+Example:
+
+  cc_binary(
+    name = "foo",
+    srcs = ["foo.cc"],
+    copts = select({
+        "@rules_cc//cc/compiler:gcc": [...],
+        "@rules_cc//cc/compiler:clang": [...],
+        "@rules_cc//cc/compiler:msvc-cl": [...],
+        # Fallback case for an undetected compiler.
+        "//conditions:default": [...],
+    }),
+  )
+
+If multiple targets use the same set of conditionally enabled flags, this can be
+simplified by extracting the select expression into a Starlark constant.
