Something along the request this issue is about: Document how to revert rustup override set nightly
.
how to revert
rustup override set nightly
.
Not important, no reason to fear of damage on the development system. Have a look at this:
$ rustup | grep override
<+toolchain> release channel (e.g. +stable) or custom toolchain to set override
override Modify directory toolchain overrides
and this
stappers@trancilo:~/src/rust/RustAVR
$ cd blink/

Especial the
info: override toolchain for '/home/stappers/src/rust/RustAVR/blink' set to 'nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu'
To me it seems that the rustup override set nightly
happens only within the current directory, so not system wide.
Note to my future self: Have you found how Cargo.lock
can help with a maintenance burden?
Idea: Add to book how to reproduce the it did work for us.
The book has strong constraints on the minimum supported Rust nightly version due to the fact that AVR support is new, and certain instructions/steps depend on changes that are in more recent Rust nigthlies but not others.
Document it at the top level of the book somewhere. In general, it will be bumped to the latest version of the Rust nightly compiler when first put in place, and then subsequently the version should be updated whenever steps in the book are modified or added which depend on newer features.
