Hello, thank you, for youe amazing repo, that allows for a simple and convinient way of using libboost through Bazel.
Unfortunately, during the process of porting my project to Windows, I had experience a strange problem.
I added a dependency, according to readme, to my MODULES.bazel file. So now it looks like that:

###############################################################################
# Bazel now uses Bzlmod by default to manage external dependencies.
# Please consider migrating your external dependencies from WORKSPACE to MODULE.bazel.
#
# For more details, please check https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/18958
###############################################################################

# Boost
# Famous C++ library that has given rise to many new additions to the C++ Standard Library
# Makes @boost available for use: For example, add `@boost//:algorithm` to your deps.
# For more, see https://github.com/nelhage/rules_boost and https://www.boost.org
bazel_dep(name = "rules_boost", repo_name = "com_github_nelhage_rules_boost")
archive_override(
    module_name = "rules_boost",
    urls = "https://github.com/nelhage/rules_boost/archive/refs/heads/master.tar.gz",
    strip_prefix = "rules_boost-master",
    # It is recommended to edit the above URL and the below sha256 to point to a specific version of this repository.
    # integrity = "sha256-...",
)

non_module_boost_repositories = use_extension("@com_github_nelhage_rules_boost//:boost/repositories.bzl", "non_module_dependencies")
use_repo(
    non_module_boost_repositories,
    "boost",
)

After doing a bazel clean --expunge command, I try to recompile and run my target of interest, which is defined as follows:

cc_library(
    name = "parser",
    srcs = [...],
    hdrs = [...],
    includes = ["include"],
    strip_include_prefix = "include",
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
    deps = [
        "@boost//:property_tree",
    ],
)

cc_test(
    name = "parsers_tests",
    srcs = [...],
    copts = ["-Iexternal/gtest/include"],
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
    deps = [
        ":parser",
        "@com_google_googletest//:gtest_main",
    ],
)

with cli command bazel test --config=windows //parsers:parsers_tests.
As a result I'm getting the followinf error:

ERROR: no such package '@@xz~//': BUILD file not found in directory '' of external repository @@xz~. Add a BUILD file to a directory to mark it as a package.
ERROR: C:/users/user/_bazel_user/ygvlhio7/external/rules_boost~~non_module_dependencies~boost/BUILD.bazel:1128:14: no such package '@@xz~//': BUILD file not found in directory '' of external repository @@xz~. Add a BUILD file to a directory to mark it as a package. and referenced by '@@rules_boost~~non_module_dependencies~boost//:iostreams'
ERROR: Analysis of target '//parsers:parsers_tests' failed; build aborted: Analysis failed

My configuration:
OS - Windows 10 1909, build 18363.1440
Compiler - MSVC 17.0.1 (Visual Studio Community 2022)
Bazel - 7.1.2
If any more info is required, please reach out to me, I will provide it ASAP.
Thank everyone in advance.
