Right now we have 134 versions already, and their numbers keep growing.

They already are inside the top ten of crates with most versions:

    clap (204)
    clippy (196)
    sovrin-client (159)
    serde (142)
    hyper (140)
    cargo-make (136)
    project_init (135)
    rustc-ap-serialize (134)
    rustc-ap-rustc_data_structures (133)
    rustc-ap-rustc_cratesio_shim (133)

Maybe publish them in a more coarse turnus, like once per week?

+1 because this is sort of unhelpful for crates.io mirrors.

est31 commented 5 years ago

Could be publishing a stable version of rustc-ap crates.

Thanks for the report but with the purpose of this crate I won't be reducing the rate of publication.

est31 commented 5 years ago

@alexcrichton what's the purpose? clippy seems to use rustc crates from the sysroot directly.

If the sole purpose is to provide support for rustfmt, it seems to not require a daily update schedule. The last 5 updates:

Each time there were >= 7 days of difference. Weekly updates would be fine it seems.
