Subject: Rust dependency on git
Date: Thu, 23 May 2019 20:22:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DCD63BD-98AB-40AD-B294-CF4E699B20BA@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi Guix,
The latest stable rust (version 1.35.0) appears to require git as a
native-input since the tidy test (which checks for code formatting in the rust
repo) fails because it cannot run `git ls-files`.
I saw a comment in the rust package definition that git changes too frequently
to be kept as an input[1]. Is anyone aware if this is still a problem?
I'd rather avoid having to patch the test suite tools to ignore this test
if it is as simple as adding "git" as a native input.
