Rustup v1.22.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-06-30 // almost 4 years ago

  • ๐Ÿ”จ Alongside a significant amount of internal refactoring and code updates, ๐Ÿš€ the highlights of this release include:

    • ๐Ÿš€ We have switched to Github Actions to make our CI and release process more consistent.
    • We've invested time in the flow when you reinstall rustup atop an existing installation.
    • We've doubled down on discouraging the use of the internal-development-focussed complete profile. Please use default or minimal unless you're trying to test/develop the Rust tooling itself.
    • We've made a number of subtle quality-of-life improvements around the CLI.
    • โž• Added a (provisionally unofficial) snap of rustup
    • We've worked hard to improve a lot of the messages (error and informational) in the tool.
    • We've increased internal timeouts and retries in an attempt to improve the situation for McAfee users.
    • While it's not a change, we've documented that rust-toolchain must be UTF8 encoded.

    While the changes spanned around 90 individual pull requests, here are the main changes and additionsโ€ฆ

    ๐Ÿ”„ Changed

    • ๐Ÿ›  Fixed various links to our repo and to the forge - #2173
    • ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improved OS detection (particularly darwin) in rustup-init.sh - #2042
    • ๐Ÿ›  Fixed bug where i686 installer on x86_64 windows would intend to install 64-bit but would actually install 32-bit toolchains by default. - #2186
    • Increased width of copy box on rustup website - #2208
    • When updating a toolchain, indicate the version you updated from as well. - #2152
    • โšก๏ธ When installing atop an existing rustup installation, we will now update the installed default toolchain, particularly we'll also try and install any additional targets or components specified - #2201 and #2339
    • ๐Ÿ›  Fixed issue where rustup doc wouldn't work with custom toolchains - #2235
    • In low-memory situations, attempt to unpack more conservatively - #2236
    • ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improved consistency in where rustup will auto-install a toolchain on use. - #2252
    • Try to force strong cipher suites in rustup-init.sh - #2287
    • When skipping a nightly indicate all the missing components - #2316
    • โฑ Increase timeout for rename retries - #2348
    • Increased 'sanity limit' to account for MIPS binary size increases - #2363
    • Fallback to non-threaded installation pathway on 1-CPU systems to improve chance that installation will succeed on Raspberry Pi - #2372

    โž• Added

    • It is now possible to install rustup even when there's an existing rustup.sh installation, and we can install alongside rustc or cargo without necessarily forcing via -y by means of the RUSTUP_INIT_SKIP_EXISTENCE_CHECKS environment variable. - #2214
    • Added the concept of a fallback settings file which will allow snaps, distro packages, etc. to provide a default toolchain for users who have not passed through the rustup-init managed one-time question set. - #2244
    • You can now specify multiple components in a single argument in the form --component rls,rust-analysis,rust-src when installing toolchains - #2239
    • It is now possible to snap install --classic rustup in theory (channel details may take some time to settle) - #1898
    • โž• Added indication of why overrides are happening when running rustup show - #2312
    • โž• Added riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu support (note: There is still work to be done on the compiler etc before this will necessarily work) - #2313
