`#![feature(doc_cfg)]` feature gate. For more information, see [its chapter in the Unstable
Book][unstable-doc-cfg] and [its tracking issue][issue-doc-cfg].
### `doc_auto_cfg`: Automatically generate `#[doc(cfg)]`
`doc_auto_cfg` is an extension to the `#[doc(cfg)]` feature. With it, you don't need to add
`#[doc(cfg(...)]` anymore unless you want to override the default behaviour. So if we take the
previous source code:
```rust
#![feature(doc_auto_cfg)]
/// Token struct that can only be used on Windows.
#[cfg(any(windows, doc))]
pub struct WindowsToken;
/// Token struct that can only be used on Unix.
#[cfg(any(unix, doc))]
pub struct UnixToken;
/// Token struct that is only available with the `serde` feature
#[cfg(feature = "serde")]
#[derive(serde::Deserialize)]
pub struct SerdeToken;
```
It'll render almost the same, the difference being that `doc` will also be displayed. To fix this,
you can use `doc_cfg_hide`:
```rust
#![feature(doc_cfg_hide)]
#![doc(cfg_hide(doc))]
```
And `doc` won't show up anymore!
