There is only the 2018 edition #1642

Oh, and https://github.com/rust-lang/book/releases/tag/one-book-to-rule-them-all is a tag right before I've done this, so we can easily look in the history to see previous books if we need to. |
I want these in the redirect directory, but rustbuild just isn't having it.

Hi @steveklabnik, I ended up on the "The 2018 edition of the book is no longer distributed with Rust's documentation" page (from a /r/rust link, I also contacted the mod team about this) and it left me quite puzzled, because I only follow Rust from a distance, and it isn't obvious that "the current version" superseeds the "2018 edition". The fact that the introduction says that "This edition of the book is the same as The Rust Programming Language available in print and ebook format from No Starch Press.", and that the No Starch page has June 2018 as the publication date doesn't help, since the 2018 edition repo was last updated in November... Could you clarify the situation and perhaps improve the message? |

Hi! yes, we should tweak that introduction. Can you open a new issue about it, please? |
We're going to be just shipping the latest version of the book from now on. This WIP PR moves the older books into the redirects directory, and moves what was the 2018 edition to the top level.
