# This file describes the stage0 compiler that's used to then bootstrap the Rust # compiler itself. # # Currently Rust always bootstraps from the previous stable release, and in our # train model this means that the master branch bootstraps from beta, beta # bootstraps from current stable, and stable bootstraps from the previous stable # release. # # If you're looking at this file on the master branch, you'll likely see that # rustc is configured to `beta`, whereas if you're looking at a source tarball # for a stable release you'll likely see `1.x.0` for rustc, with the previous # stable release's version number. `date` is the date where the release we're # bootstrapping off was released. date: 2021-02-11 rustc: 1.50.0 # We use a nightly rustfmt to format the source because it solves some # bootstrapping issues with use of new syntax in this repo. If you're looking at # the beta/stable branch, this key should be omitted, as we don't want to depend # on rustfmt from nightly there. #rustfmt: nightly-2021-01-28 # When making a stable release the process currently looks like: # # 1. Produce stable build, upload it to dev-static # 2. Produce a beta build from the previous stable build, upload to static # 3. Produce a nightly build from previous beta, upload to static # 4. Upload stable build to static, publish full release # # This means that there's a small window of time (a few days) where artifacts # are downloaded from dev-static.rust-lang.org instead of static.rust-lang.org. # In order to ease this transition we have an extra key which is in the # configuration file below. When uncommented this will instruct the bootstrap.py # script to download from dev-static.rust-lang.org. # # This key is typically commented out at all times. If you're looking at a # stable release tarball it should *definitely* be commented out. If you're # looking at a beta source tarball and it's uncommented we'll shortly comment it # out. #dev: 1
