While having a look at the Rust book I found this tiny error. In my opinion this if should be all lowercase, because it follows a colon, but I am no native speaker, so I am probably wrong. Also it is a very tiny change, so feel free to include it in any bigger documentation patch.
Removes the link to the rust-dev mailing list in the bug report submission page and also adds the address of the IRC server (`irc.mozilla.org`). Addresses #22249.
This overhauls the very meager docs that currently exist to clarify
various understandable confusions that I've noticed, e.g. people look in
`std::raw` for the "real" types of slices like `&[T]`, or think that
`Slice<T>` refers to `[T]` (fixes#22214).
This patch takes the liberty of offering some "style" guidance around
`raw::Slice`, since there's more restricted ways to duplicate all
functionality connected to it: `std::slice::from_raw_parts{,_mut}` for
construction and `.as_{,mut_}ptr` & `.len` for deconstruction.
It also deprecates the `std::raw::Closure` type which is now useless for
non-type-erased closures, and replaced by `TraitObject` for `&Fn`, `&mut
FnMut` etc, so I guess it should be called a:

This is super black magic internals at the moment, but having it
somewhere semi-public seems good. The current versions weren't being
rendered, and they'll be useful for some people.

Since we don’t have Deprecated stability level anymore, the only other source of information is
deprecated-since version, which conveniently to us, only exists if the symbol is deprecated.
Fixes#21789
It is only allowed in paths now, where it will either work inside a `trait`
or `impl` item, or not resolve outside of it.

Closes#22137
`cp -a` is a GNU extension. Use an alternate combinaison of POSIX options
(`-PRp`) that do nearly the same.
The difference is `-a` will preserve context, links and xattr attributes,
whereas `-p` not. But as we use it only for copy a file, there is no
difference in the current context.
`PathBuf` does implement `Hash`, but `Path` doesn't. This makes it
annoying if you have a `HashMap` with `PathBuf`s as keys, because
it means you have to convert a `Path` into a `PathBuf` and get a
reference to it simply to perform operations on the `HashMap`!
Per [RFC 579](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/579), this commit
adds a new `std::process` module. This module is largely based on the
existing `std::old_io::process` module, but refactors the API to use
`OsStr` and other new standards set out by IO reform.
The existing module is not yet deprecated, to allow for the new API to
get a bit of testing before a mass migration to it.

the sed option `--in-place` (or `-i`) is a GNU extension, and it is not
portable to BSD system (openbsd and freebsd checked).
use an alternate construction in order to keep the semantic.
Replaced outdated use of the `range(start, end)` function where appropriate with `start..end`, and tweaked the examples to compile and run with the latest rust. I also fixed two periphery compile issues in reference.md which were occluding whether there were any new errors created by these changes.
The default implementation of .repr() will call conveniently call
transmute_copy which should be appropriate for all implementors, but is
memory unsafe if used wrong.
Fixes#22260
You need to use `unsafe impl` to implement the Repr trait now.
