The mailing list of the developers of the Git source control system is discussing a change that proposes to include components in the Rust language as a core part of Git and to add Rust to the list of mandatory dependencies needed to build Git. The integration of the ability to use Rust in Git development is suggested to be carried out similarly to the previous transition to support C99 specifications in the Git codebase \u2014 first, by adding support for Rust in a testing mode, and starting with Git 3.0, making it a mandatory part of the build infrastructure. <\/p>\n
The integration of Rust support in Git began with the March release of Git 2.49, which included a non-mandatory build interface allowing for the development of Git components in Rust. Two crate packages were added: libgit-sys and libgit, which provide low-level and high-level Rust bindings over the internal libraries used in Git. <\/p>\n
In July, a change to the xdiff utility was published in the Git developers' mailing list, adding components in Rust and optimizations that could improve performance by 5-19%. The change note suggested adding Rust to the list of strict dependencies. In July, a decision on this matter was not made, and now a second attempt is being made to raise the issue of promoting Rust to mandatory build dependencies. Judging by the ongoing discussion among Git developers, there are more opponents of such a step than supporters, although there are no strong objections to optional Git support. The main argument against it is the lack of adequate support for all platforms supported in Git in the rustc compiler. \n Source: opennet.ru<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
