1.45.0 is now stable :)

Thanks for this great repo!

Just wanted to point out that in the strip Symbols from Binary section, it mentions nightly 1.45.0, however, this is now a stable version.

It is still a nightly option in rustc.

I just did rustup update stable and got me 1.45.1 :)

Edit: I just tried using strip in cargo.toml and it asks for a nightly Cargo. Guess I'm missing something, my bad.

[tesuji]

Yeah. Stable rustc cannot be passed -Z flags like -Z strip=symbols. Only nightly rustc can be.

[h5rdly]

You're right, just tried and it asks for nightly Cargo. Is this a glitch, i.e. they forgot to move strip to the "regular" flags section?

Anyway, closing as nothing to do here

[tesuji]

They didn't forget that. Either they don't think strip flag is ready for stabilization or nobody proposes it.

@h5rdly The tracking issue is here rust-lang/rust#72110 you can watch for that to get tagged "disposition-merge". It will then be in the next stable Rust that is released. Until then it will be in each nightly starting with back when 1.45 was nightly. Hope this helps.
