This breaks code that looked like:
match foo {
[ first, ..middle, last ] => { ... }
}
Change this code to:
match foo {
[ first, middle.., last ] => { ... }

People reading the tutorial may not be familiar with the convention of naming lists, vectors and the like as xs, ys, etc. Without some explanation of the reasoning behind it, it might come off as just throwaway non-descriptive names. Languages like Haskell gets flak from using short, non-descriptive names, while in reality, there are clear conventions and reasons for using certain terse variable names.
This is just a proposed explanation of this convention, as I've interpreted it - I assumed that the convention came from a language like Haskell, so I tailored it according to that. So beware that I might have misjudged how it is used in the Rust language, or at least how it is used in the Rust tutorial.

This leaves the `Share` trait at `std::kinds` via a `#[deprecated]` `pub use`
statement, but the `NoShare` struct is no longer part of `std::kinds::marker`
due to #12660 (the build cannot bootstrap otherwise).
All code referencing the `Share` trait should now reference the `Sync` trait,
and all code referencing the `NoShare` type should now reference the `NoSync`
type. The functionality and meaning of this trait have not changed, only the
naming.

This eliminates the last vestige of the `~` syntax.
Instead of `~self`, write `self: Box<TypeOfSelf>`; instead of `mut
~self`, write `mut self: Box<TypeOfSelf>`, replacing `TypeOfSelf` with
the self-type parameter as specified in the implementation.
Closes#13885.

Simplify example in 5.2 to remove hidden `#[deriving(Show)]`. Traits haven't been introduced yet and now it's easier to just type in the code and expect it to work. Add in some examples for constructing the enum types. Explicitly expose `#![feature(struct_variant)]` in the code to make it more transparent, this bit me when I worked through the tutorial.
Add references in chapter 8 to later chapters describing `Rc`, `Gc` and `Send`. This is a simple fix for #15293.
Simplify vector indexing example in chapter 13 and removed hidden, unnecessary, code. Gave an example usage of the derived `Rand` trait in chapter 17.

Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects.
Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we
have DST.
This will break code like:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(a);
Change this code to:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(&*a);

This is because I observed someone reading the tutorial who thought they'd
missed something when they got to the mention of variable bindings.
This patch doesn't reflow the paragraphs so that you can see the semantic
change that I made, and a subsequent patch will reflow this paragraph.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/13570.
In line with what @brson, @cmr, @nikomatsakis and I discussed this morning, my
redux of the tutorial will be implemented as the Guide. This way, I can work in
small iterations, rather than dropping a huge PR, which is hard to review. In
addition, the community can observe my work as I'm doing it.
This adds a note in line with [this comment][reddit] that clarifies the state
of the tutorial, and the community's involvement with it.

This breaks a fair amount of code. The typical patterns are:
* `for _ in range(0, 10)`: change to `for _ in range(0u, 10)`;
* `println!("{}", 3)`: change to `println!("{}", 3i)`;
* `[1, 2, 3].len()`: change to `[1i, 2, 3].len()`.

Now that rustdoc understands proper language tags
as the code not being Rust, we can tag everything
properly.
This change tags examples in other languages by
their language. Plain notations are marked as `text`.
Console examples are marked as `console`.
Also fix markdown.rs to not highlight non-rust code.
Renamed `owned_box` to `on_the_heap` to use a consistent
naming across the tutorial and the life time guide.
Also it makes the example easier to grasp.
This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.

This commit moves reflection (as well as the {:?} format modifier) to a new
libdebug crate, all of which is marked experimental.
This is a breaking change because it now requires the debug crate to be
explicitly linked if the :? format qualifier is used. This means that any code
using this feature will have to add `extern crate debug;` to the top of the
crate. Any code relying on reflection will also need to do this.
Closes#12019
