• Updating dirs 4.0.0 -> 5.0.1 and cargo_metadata 0.15.4 -> 0.18.0 [#6033] (#6033)
• Bumped bytecount 0.6.4 -> 0.6.8 to fix compilation issues with the generic-simd feature. See bytecount#92 and bytecount#93

• Output correct syntax for type ascription builtin #6159

  fn main() {
      builtin # type_ascribe(10, usize)
  }

• Sometimes when format_code_in_doc_comments=true was set some line comments were converted to block comments #5533
• rustfmt will no longer remove the braces in match arms when the block has a labeled #5676

  fn main() {
      match true {
          true => 'a: {
              break 'a
          }
          _ => (),
      }
  }

• Calling methods on float literals ending in . will now be wrapped in parenthesis. e.g. 0. .to_string() will be formatted as (0.).to_string() #5791
• Prevent ICE when formatting empty macro_rules! branch #5730

  macro_rules! statement {
      () => {;};
  }

• Prevent ICE when formatting vec!{} #5735
• Prevent internal trailing whitespace error when formatting an empty macro_rules! definition e.g. macro_rules! foo {} #5882
• Formatting doc comment lines that start with . or ) won't be treated as ordered markdown lists because . or ) must be preceded by a number to start an ordered markdown list #5835
• Add parenthesis around closures when they're used as method receives, don't have a block body, and end with . #4808

  fn main() {
      || (10.).method();
      (|| ..).method();
      (|| 1..).method();
  }

• Prevent removing for<T> when using the #![feature(non_lifetime_binders)] #5721

  trait Other<U: ?Sized> {}
  
  trait Trait<U>
  where
      for<T> U: Other<T> {}

• Fix various issues with comments in imports #5852 #4708 #3984

  {
  }

• Improve formatting of let-else statements that have leading attributes When setting version = Two #5901
• Prevent comment duplication in expressions wrapped in parenthesis. #5871
• Adjust the span derivation used when rewriting const generics. The incorrect span derivation lead to invalid code after reformatting. #5935

• rustfmt no longer removes explicit Rust ABIs. e.g extern "Rust" fn im_a_rust_fn() {} #5701
• Setting trailing_semicolon = false will only remove trailing ; on the last expression in a block #5797
• Update the format of cargo help fmt to be more consistent with other standard commands #5908

• Users can now set skip_macro_invocations in rustfmt.toml #5816
• Adds initial support for formatting let-chains. let-chains are still a nightly feature and their formatting is subject to change #5910. Formatting was implemented following the rules outlined in rust-lang/rust#110568

• Support the experimental dyn* syntax, enabled by #![feature(dyn_star)] #5542
• Replace unicode_categories dependency with unicode-properties #5864

• Support for formatting let-else statements #5690
• New config option, single_line_let_else_max_width, that allows users to configure the maximum length of single line let-else statements. let-else statements that otherwise meet the requirements to be formatted on a single line will have their divergentelse block formatted over multiple lines if they exceed this length #5684

• When formatting doc comments with wrap_comments = true rustfmt will no longer wrap markdown tables #4210
• Properly handle wrapping comments that include a numbered list in markdown #5416
• Properly handle markdown sublists that utilize a #4041
• rustfmt will no longer use shorthand initialization when rewriting a tuple struct even when use_field_init_shorthand = true as this leads to code that could no longer compile. Take the following struct as an example struct MyStruct(u64);. rustfmt will no longer format MyStruct { 0: 0 } as MyStruct { 0 } #5488
• rustfmt no longer panics when formatting an empty code block in a doc comment with format_code_in_doc_comments = true #5234. For example:

  /// ```
  ///
  /// ```
  fn main() {}

• rustfmt no longer incorrectly duplicates the where clause bounds when using const expression in where clause bounds with feature #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] #5691. e.g.:

  struct S<const C: usize>
  where
      [(); { num_slots!(C) }]:, {
      // code ...
  }

• Prevent ICE when parsing invalid attributes in cfg_if! macros #5728, #5729
• rustfmt no longer loses comments placed between a doc comment and generic params #5320
• Handle explicit discriminants in enums with comments present #5686

• Users can now control whether rustc parser errors are displayed with color using rustfmt's --color option. To disable colored errors pass --color=Never to rustfmt #5717

• rustfmt now recognises as the start of a markdown list, and won't incorrectly wrap sublists that begin with when formatting doc comments with wrap_comments = true #5560

• Update various dependencies, including syn, cargo_metadata, env_logger, and toml

• Resolve issue when comments are found within const generic defaults in unit structs #5668
• Resolve issue when block comments are found within trait generics #5358
• Correctly handle alignment of comments containing unicode characters #5504
• Properly indent a single generic bound that requires being written across multiple lines #4689 (n.b. this change is version gated and will only appear when the version configuration option is set to Two)

• Renamed fn_args_layout configuration option to fn_params_layout #4149. Note that fn_args_layout has only been soft deprecated: fn_args_layout will continue to work without issue, but rustfmt will display a warning to encourage users to switch to the new name

• New configuration option (skip_macro_invocations)[https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=master&search=#skip_macro_invocations] #5347 that can be used to globally define a single enumerated list of macro calls that rustfmt should skip formatting. rustfmt currently also supports this via a custom tool attribute, however, these cannot be used in all contexts because custom inner attributes are unstable

• rustfmt now internally supports the ability to have both stable and unstable variants of a configuration option #5378. This ability will allow the rustfmt team to make certain configuration options available on stable toolchains more quickly because we no longer have to wait for every variant to be stable-ready before stabilizing any variant.

• rustup (nightly) - nightly-2023-01-24
• GitHub Release Binaries - Release v1.5.2
• Build from source - Tag v1.5.2, see instructions for how to install rustfmt from source

N.B A bug was introduced in v1.5.0/nightly-2022-06-15 which modified formatting. If you happened to run rustfmt over your code with one of those ~10 nightlies it's possible you may have seen formatting changes, and you may see additional changes after this fix since that bug has now been reverted.

• Correct an issue introduced in v1.5.0 where formatting changes were unintentionally introduced in a few cases with a large/long construct in a right hand side position (e.g. a large chain on the RHS of a local/assignment statement)
• cargo fmt --version properly displays the version value again #5395

• Properly sort imports containing raw identifiers #3791 (note this is change version gated, and not applied by default)

• Add new configuration option, doc_comment_code_block_width, which allows for setting a shorter width limit to use for formatting code snippets in doc comments #5384

• rustup (nightly) - nightly-2022-06-24
• GitHub Release Binaries - Release v1.5.1
• Build from source - Tag v1.5.1, see instructions for how to install rustfmt from source

• Simplify the rustfmt help text by eliding the full path to the rustfmt binary path from the usage string when running rustfmt --help #5214

• Bumped the version for several dependencies. Most notably dirs v2.0.1 -> v4.0.0. This changed the global user config directory on macOS from $HOME/Library/Preferences to $HOME/Library/Application Support #5237

• Remove duplicate imports when imports_granularity is set to Item #4725
• Properly handle stdin input containing an inner skip attribute #5368
• Maintain attributes on imports when imports_granularity is set to Item #5030
• Format empty trait definitions as a single line when both empty_item_single_line is enabled and brace_style is set to AlwaysNextLine #5047
• Don't change granularity of imports containing comments with imports_granularity if doing so could lose or misplace those comments #5311
• Prevent rustfmt from removing trailing comments at the end of files annotated with inner #![rustfmt::skip] attributes #5033
• Fixed various error[internal]: left behind trailing whitespace" issues:
  • Remove trailing whitespace when formatting a where clause who's bounds have an empty right hand side #5012 #4850
  • Prevent rustfmt from adding an empty comment line when rewriting markdown lists at the start of doc comments. This issue was triggered when wrap_comments=true #5088
• Prevent adding a block indented newline before a function parameter with a complex type that was formatted over multiple lines #5125
• Fix various module resolution issues preventing rustfmt from finding modules that should be formatted:
  • Handle external mods imported via external->inline load hierarchy #5063
  • Resolve sub modules of integration tests #5119
  • Module resolution will fallback to the current search directory if a relative directory search results in a FileNotFound error #5198
• Give users a clearer error message when resolving a module who's file path is ambiguous (e.g x.rs and x/mod.rs). Before users were given a File not found error message which was confusing #5167
• Fix various issues related to type aliases:
  • Prevent rustfmt from adding = impl to associated types defined in macro bodies #4823
  • Properly block indent type alias impl traits (TAITs) that wrap to the next line when version=Two is set. Before any trait bounds that wrapped to the next line would not be indented #5027
  • Prevent rustfmt from adding an impl Trait definition into types #5086
• Fix cases where normalize_comments=true would de-normalizes some comments by changing inline comments into block comments #4909
• Prevent rustfmt from wrapping the content of markdown reference-style links in doc comments #5095 #4933
• Don't format files annotated with inner #![rustfmt::skip] attribute PR #5094
• Prevent duplicate comma when struct pattern ends with .. and trailing_comma=Always. For example, let Foo { a, .. } = b; would become let Foo { a,, .. } = b; #5066
• Fix the order of static and async keywords when rewriting static async closures. The correct order is static and then async (e.g static async || {}) #5149
• Retain the fully qualified path segment when rewriting struct literals in expression position. Now <Struct as Trait>::Type is not rewritten as Trait::Type #5151
• Do not remove match arm braces from a match arm with a single ast::ExprKind::Block that has leading attributes. Removing the braces could lead to code that does not compile. Now rustfmt will leave the outer {} in place when formatting => {#[allow(unsafe_code)]unsafe {}} #4109
• Backport json emitter and stdin changes PR #5054
  • Make --check work when running rustfmt with input from stdin PR #3896
  • Fix --check with the --files-with-diff flag PR #3910
  • Produce valid JSON when using the JSON emitter PR #3953
  • Fix newlines in JSON output PR #4262
  • Use <stdin> when emitting stdin as filename PR #4298
• Always generate some output when formatting @generated files via stdin even when format_generated_files=false. Not producing output caused rust-analyzer to delete the file content rust-lang/rust-analyzer #5172
• Properly block indent multi-line comments in empty struct definitions. Previously, only the first comment line would be block indented. All other comment lines would be aligned with the struct definition #4854
• Prevent rustfmt from wrapping a comment at a byte position inside a non-ascii character when wrap_comments=true. This prevents rustfmt from panicking when breaking on the invalid position #5023
• Prevent rustfmt from removing commented out trailing separators (e.g commas) when rewriting lists. For example, remove the comma from a comment like this // ..., would lead to a scenario where the entire list could not be rewritten because the content of the comment changed #5042
• Fix panic when import_granularity was set to Module, One, or Crate and the import use declaration contained an alias use crate a::b as b1 #5131
• Add a newline between generic parameters and their doc comments to prevent the generic parameters from being merged into their doc comments #5122
• Fixes indentation issue where string literals manually broken with line continuation characters (\) would be incorrectly indented in macro definitions when setting format_strings=true#4036
• Properly wrap and format long markdown block quotes when wrap_comments=true #5157
• Prevent rustfmt from wrapping markdown headers even when wrap_comments=true. Wrapping the markdown headers would prevent them from being properly rendered with rustdoc #5238
• Prevent rustfmt from removing commas between struct fields when those fields were also separated by an empty line #4791 #4928
• Fix compiler error caused when formatting imports with imports_granularity=Module and a path containing self. Given the following import use crate::lexer::{self, tokens::TokenData};, rustfmt would transform the self import into use crate::lexer::self;. Now rustfmt produces use crate::lexer::{self}; #4681
• Prevent rustfmt from breaking long type links in doc comments on namespace qualifiers (::) when wrap_comments=true. Breaking these long type links over multiple lines prevented them from being properly rendered in rustdoc #5260
• Correctly find the start of struct bodies after any generic const parameters. Naively searching for an opening { lead to issues since generic const parameters are also defined with {} (e.g. struct Example<const N: usize = { 1048576 }> {}) #5273
• Prevent rustfmt from merging derives when using inner or outer rustfmt::skip::attributes attributes. For example, #[rustfmt::skip::attributes(derive)] #5270
• Retain trailing ; when rewriting macro calls in extern blocks. For example, extern "C" { x!(-); }#5281
• Add a newline when formatting struct fields preceded by both doc comments and inline comments to prevent the field from being merged into the inline comment. This was not an issue when a struct was preceded by just a doc comment or just an inline comment #5215

• Added One as a new group_imports option to create a single group for all imports PR #4966
• Add short_array_element_width_threshold config option to give users more control over when Mixed list formatting is used PR #5228

• Removed unstable, nightly-only config option report_todo #5101
• Removed unstable, nightly-only config option report_fixme #5102
• Removed unstable, nightly-only config option license_template_path #5103

• Improved performance when formatting large and deeply nested expression trees, often found in generated code, which have many expressions that exceed max_width #5128, #4867, #4476, #5139

• Original comment indentation for trailing comments within an if is now taken into account when determining the indentation level to use for the trailing comment in formatted code. This does not modify any existing code formatted with rustfmt; it simply gives the programmer discretion to specify whether the comment is associated to the else block, or if the trailing comment is just a member of the if block. (#1575, #4120, #4506)

In this example the // else comment refers to the else:

// if comment
if cond {
    "if"
// else comment
} else {
    "else"
}

Whereas in this case the // continue comments are members of their respective blocks and do not refer to the else below.

if toks.eat_token(Token::Word("modify"))? && toks.eat_token(Token::Word("labels"))? {
    if toks.eat_token(Token::Colon)? {
        // ate the token
    } else if toks.eat_token(Token::Word("to"))? {
        // optionally eat the colon after to, e.g.:
        // @rustbot modify labels to: -S-waiting-on-author,  S-waiting-on-review
        toks.eat_token(Token::Colon)?;
    } else {
        // It's okay if there's no to or colon, we can just eat labels
        // afterwards.
    }
    1   2;
    // continue
} else if toks.eat_token(Token::Word("label"))? {
    // continue
} else {
