Description
Emacs drops a broken symlink in a file's directory to indicate that the file has unsaved changes. When scanning Rust source files for features, the rustc development tidy
tool will fail if such a lockfile exists in the source tree, with (this part being the actual bug, being that a dirty tree should fail tidy
) a message that doesn't make it clear what happened:
thread 'main' panicked at 'File::open(file) failed with No such file or directory (os error 2)', /home/zmd/Code/rust/src/tools/tidy/src/features.rs:71
(The novice compiler developer wonders: what file?)
I think this is likely too obscure to be worth doing anything about, but somehow managed to fall slightly over my subjective threshold of "worth filing an Issue for"; sorry if I'm miscalibrated in this matter.
