Subject: [PATCH v5] move rust gitcore crate to a different subdirectory
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 15:04:15 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917060415.2986259-1-mh@glandium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <xmqq5x0df19l.fsf@gitster.g>
Having `Cargo.toml` at the top-level of the repository implies that one
can run `cargo build` directly, but this doesn't produce anything useful
on its own.
Additionally, when including the git source as a submodule of a Rust
project, it prevents the git source from being included at all in the
crate package because cargo skips directories that contain a Cargo.toml,
assuming that everything in the directory is relevant to the crate.
Move all Rust-specific files into a dedicated `rust/` subdirectory.
