    > library to find a dependency at runtime, either in the runfiles directory (if available)
    > or using the runfiles manifest.

    > This is similar to root path (a.k.a. [short_path](https://bazel.build/rules/lib/File#short_path))
    > in that it does not contain configuration prefixes, but differs in that it always starts with the
    > name of the repository.

    > The rlocation path of a `File` in an external repository repo will start with `repo/`, followed by the
    > repository-relative path.

    > Passing this path to a binary and resolving it to a file system path using the runfiles libraries
    > is the preferred approach to find dependencies at runtime. Compared to root path, it has the
    > advantage that it works on all platforms and even if the runfiles directory is not available.
