I feel like recommending people install Poetry via a package manager was
a mistake. Poetry only supports its latest version, and while newer
versions are sort-of backward-compatible, they print warnings in
different situations and have different bugs. Installing `pipx` via a
package manager, OTOH, works fine, and its older versions work fine.
Using Poetry 1.8+ allows us to use Poetry's new "non-package" mode,
which would no longer print warnings if the user does `poetry install`
instead of `poetry install --no-root`. It's likely that in newer
versions of Poetry, it will become an error.
We want to avoid conflicts of interest (both real and
apparent). Better to document this before it happens.
By the way, Ilya and I both work for Google and we have approved lots
of each others' PRs, but we work in very different parts of the
company and I don't think any of the PRs have been specific to
Google's interests.
On my machine, this halves the time taken by `cargo insta test --workspace
--test-runner nextest`.
I don't believe there would be a worthwhile improvement when not
using `nextest`. I also documented how to tell whether using `mold`
is worthwhile.
I was reminded of this by https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2858.
One action publishes the 'prerelease' version on every push
to `main`.
The other publishes a 'latest' version on every releasse.
I tested both of them, but not with branch protection rules.
I initially was thinking of using `mdbook`, which looks a little better, but I
think versioning the docs is important, and the features I want are pretty much
only supported by the Mkdocs' "Material" theme.
Mkdocs is written in Python. The prerequesites for building docs on your
machine should be to install Python and Poetry, everything else should be
installed automatically by Poetry. See the edits to `contributing.md` for more details.
Summary: This was some fallout from merging #1851; I missed a few changes
I needed to back out for an upcoming diff.

Summary: Let's be more aggressive about tracking the latest stable Rust release.
There's little benefit to being conservative so early on, especially when no
users seem to have faced any issue with upgrading, or strictly required an old
Rust version.
Right now, just lagging Rust by 1 major release probably seems fine. We're
targeting 1.71.0 to get ahead of the curve, since 1.72.0 will likely release
sometime before the next `jj` release.

We need 1.64 to bump `clap` to `4.1`. We don't really need to upgrade
to that, but being on an older version causes minor confusions like
#1393. Rust 1.64 is very close to 6 months old at this point.
Running `cargo fmt` while you're working in an editor means that you
may lose changes because of a race:
1. Your editor reads version X of file
2. `cargo fmt` reads version X
3. You save version Y from your editor
4. `cargo fmt` saves version Z, replacing Y
It can be confusing that the lib crate is not tested when you run
`cargo test` without `--workspace` from the root directory. Also,
`nextest` is a non-obvious quality-of-life improvement, so let's
suggest that.
