Yes, we do, but note that the FCP itself takes time. |

I won't be around for the week-end so if someone wants to open the FCP (better to be @ollie27 I think since they have some remaining issues on their mind), please do so, so we can move forward. |
I fixed the two libstd issues, worked fine! #74453 |
@GuillaumeGomez it's the other way around, someone who wants to merge it (e.g. me) should open the FCP, and others can register concerns. I'll do it. |
@rfcbot fcp merge |

Maybe add a reminder explaining that before #
it's the intra-doc and after it's an anchor in the target page.

I think it's pretty obvious here

It doesn't kill to add explanations and I had to read it twice to figure it out. So I think it totally deserves to have an extra explanation (better too much documentation than not enough 😛 ).

I actually think too much documentation can be a problem where it distracts from the important stuff, and I'd rather not explain how fragment specifiers work here.

In this case, it's just a sentence. And originally, I just used Type#anchor
to demonstrate it because using fully qualified path made the example more difficult to understand. I still think that we should add a sentence to explain quickly that after #
is the anchor to the target page.
@rfcbot concern wait for String links to be fixed @ollie27 mentioned in #43466 (comment) that intra-doc links were originally designed for #32129 and #32130. I think we should wait until those are fixed to decide, which will helps us find lingering issues (e.g. #74458). @Manishearth already has a PR open (#74453) so I don't expect this to take too long, but it will help us understand the tradeoffs better instead of stabilizing all of intra-doc links within 24 hours of cross-crate re-exports being fixed. Note that I don't think we need to fix all the bugs that pop up, we should just make sure we know what tradeoffs we're making. |

@rfcbot fcp merge wonder why it doesn't think the FCP resolved |
@bors r+ I suspect my accidental r+ earlier made rfcbot forget about this somehow. Oh well, it's been a week, going to hit the button. |

…Manishearth Stabilize intra-doc links Fixes rust-lang#43466 Thanks to the great work of @jyn514 in getting the [cross-crate reexport issue](rust-lang#65983) in intra-rustdoc links fixed, I think we're now in a position to stabilize this feature. The tracking issue currently has two unresolved issues: - <s>behavior around doc(hidden): This is fixed in rust-lang#73365, which is just waiting for CI and should land tomorrow. It's also a pretty niche bug so while I expect it to land soon I don't think we need to block stabilization on it anyway.</s> - Non-identifier primitive types like slices: This was not a part of the original RFC anyway, and is a pretty niche use case The feature itself, sans rust-lang#65983, has been shipped on nightly for three years now, with people using it on docs.rs. rust-lang#65983 itself is not an overwhelmingly central bit of functionality; the reason we elected to block stabilization on it was that back in 2017 it was not possible to fix the issue without some major refactorings of resolve, and we did not want to stabilize something that had such a potentially unfixable bug. Given that we've fixed it, I see no reason to delay stabilization on this long awaited feature. It's possible that the latest patches have problems, however we _have_ done crater runs of some of the crucial parts. Furthermore, that's what the release trains are for, we will have a solid three months to let it ride the trains before it actually hits the stable compiler. r? @rust-lang/rustdoc
The final comment period, with a disposition to merge, as per the review above, is now complete. As the automated representative of the governance process, I would like to thank the author for their work and everyone else who contributed. The RFC will be merged soon. |
☀️ Test successful - checks-actions, checks-azure |
This is awesome! Thanks to everyone who worked on this ❤️ |
Very excited about this! Thanks, team! |

Pkgsrc changes: * Compensate for files being moved around upstream. * Introduce optional, on-by-default semi-static building of cargo, using the internal curl and openssl sources. This reduces the dynamic dependencies of cargo and therefore the rust package itself. Ref. options.mk. * The 1.47.0 bootstrap kits have been re-built with the above option turned on, so no longer depends on curl or openssl from pkgsrc and/or from earlier OS or pkgsrc versions. This should hopefully fix installation of rust with non-default PREFIX, ref. PR#54453.

Fixes #43466
Thanks to the great work of @jyn514 in getting the cross-crate reexport issue in intra-rustdoc links fixed, I think we're now in a position to stabilize this feature.
The tracking issue currently has two unresolved issues:
behavior around doc(hidden): This is fixed in Record visibility of reexports for all items, not just type items #73365, which is just waiting for CI and should land tomorrow. It's also a pretty niche bug so while I expect it to land soon I don't think we need to block stabilization on it anyway.The feature itself, sans #65983, has been shipped on nightly for three years now, with people using it on docs.rs. #65983 itself is not an overwhelmingly central bit of functionality; the reason we elected to block stabilization on it was that back in 2017 it was not possible to fix the issue without some major refactorings of resolve, and we did not want to stabilize something that had such a potentially unfixable bug.
Given that we've fixed it, I see no reason to delay stabilization on this long awaited feature. It's possible that the latest patches have problems, however we have done crater runs of some of the crucial parts. Furthermore, that's what the release trains are for, we will have a solid three months to let it ride the trains before it actually hits the stable compiler.
