//! Checks for needless boolean results of if-else expressions

/// **What it does:** This lint checks for expressions of the form `if c { true } else { false }` (or vice versa) and suggest using the condition directly. It is `Warn` by default.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Redundant code.
///
/// **Known problems:** Maybe false positives: Sometimes, the two branches are painstakingly documented (which we of course do not detect), so they *may* have some value. Even then, the documentation can be rewritten to match the shorter code.
///
/// **Example:** `if x { false } else { true }`
