The rustc-std-workspace-core crate
This crate is a shim and empty crate which simply depends on libcore and
reexports all of its contents. The crate is the crux of empowering the standard
library to depend on crates from crates.io
Crates on crates.io that the standard library depend on the
rustc-std-workspace-core crate from crates.io. On crates.io, however, this
crate is empty. We use [patch] to override it to this crate in this
repository. As a result, crates on crates.io will draw a dependency edge to
libcore, the version defined in this repository. That should draw all the
dependency edges to ensure Cargo builds crates successfully!
Note that crates on crates.io need to depend on this crate with the name core
for everything to work correctly. To do that they can use:
core = { version = "1.0.0", optional = true, package = 'rustc-std-workspace-core' }
Through the use of the package key the crate is renamed to core, meaning
it'll look like
--extern core=.../librustc_std_workspace_core-XXXXXXX.rlib
when Cargo invokes the compiler, satisfying the implicit extern crate core
directive injected by the compiler.
