fix(bootstrap/dist)!: change dist path for `rustc-docs` to avoid clashing Closes rust-lang/rust#75833, part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/issues/3717: > I'd like to know if we can assign another folder name to `rustc-docs`? > [...] > [`@ThePuzzlemaker](https://github.com/ThePuzzlemaker)'s` `share/doc/rust/html/nightly-rustc` does look a bit weird to me (`nightly-rustc` has nothing to do with the current `rustc`, i.e. the Rustc Book, but they somehow appear similar just looking at the names). > > I personally would like to see something like `share/doc/rust/html/rustc-docs` or `share/doc/rust/html/rustc-api` for this component. _https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/75833#issuecomment-2002503223_ The TLDR is that currently the "rustc book"'s path clashes with "rustc APIs" (i.e. `rustc-docs`), so we change the path of the latter to make it distributable via rustup. I'm new to `bootstrap` so please feel free to point out any inconsistencies or any extra work I'll need to do to fully land this somewhat breaking change.
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
