Refactor build-manifest to minimize the number of changes needed to add a new component
- Add all components to `PkgType`
- Automate functionality wherever possible, so functions often don't have to be manually edited
- Where that's not possible, use exhaustive matches on `PkgType` instead of adding individual strings.
- Add documentation for how to add a component. Improve the existing documentation for how to test changes.
I tested locally that this generates an identical manifest before and after my change, as follows:
```sh
git checkout
|
||
|---|---|---|
| .. | ||
| bootstrap | ||
| ci | ||
| doc | ||
| etc | ||
| librustdoc | ||
| llvm-project@2a2ea6b49e | ||
| rustdoc-json-types | ||
| test | ||
| tools | ||
| README.md | ||
| stage0.json | ||
| version | ||
This directory contains the source code of the rust project, including:
- The test suite
- The bootstrapping build system
- Various submodules for tools, like cargo, etc.
For more information on how various parts of the compiler work, see the rustc dev guide.
