It's common to see repeated assertions like this in derived `clone` and `eq` methods: ``` let _: ::core::clone::AssertParamIsClone<u32>; let _: ::core::clone::AssertParamIsClone<u32>; ``` This commit avoids them.
The rustc_ast
crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax
– that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).
For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
