I'm experimenting with using nightly inside the Nix build, in order to use the parallel rustc frontend and cranelift, and this really helps avoid bogus/spurious clippy warnings.
I suspect @ilyagr might have opinions on this, since he's tracked a bunch of these regressions along with me.
As an alternative to
#[allow(unknown_lints)]
— which I am not a huge fan of — I think we could also wire up abuild.rs
that detects the rustc version and emitscargo:rustc-cfg=nightly
which would allow us to conditionalize the macro on#[cfg(nightly)]
. But maybe this is good enough.
