For developing on rustup
itself, you may want to install into a temporary
directory, with a series of commands similar to this:
cargo build
mkdir home
RUSTUP_HOME=home CARGO_HOME=home target/debug/rustup-init --no-modify-path -y
You can then try out rustup
with your changes by running home/bin/rustup
, without
affecting any existing installation. Remember to keep those two environment variables
set when running your compiled rustup-init
or the toolchains it installs, but unset
when rebuilding rustup
itself.
If you wish to install your new build to try out longer term in your home directory
then you can run cargo dev-install
which is an alias in .cargo/config
which
runs cargo run -- --no-modify-path -y
to install your build into your homedir.
We use rustfmt
to keep our codebase consistently formatted. Please ensure that
you have correctly formatted your code (most editors will do this automatically
when saving) or it may not pass the CI tests.
If you are moving, renaming or removing an existing mdBook page, please use mdBook’s
output.html.redirect
feature to ensure that the old URL gets redirected.
Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the work by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, shall be dual licensed as in the README, without any additional terms or conditions.
