Inside Rust Blog·31wWhat we learned with Clippy's feature freeze
Clippy's feature freeze experiment successfully concluded, resulting in a record-breaking week of pull requests with 326 total contributions. The freeze attracted 47 new contributors who opened 195 pull requests, with 18 specifically adding new lints. The Clippy team deemed the initiative successful enough to plan future feature freezes, though timing details are still being determined. The team also conducted feedback sessions with top contributors to improve the onboarding experience for future developers.
Inside Rust Blog·48wAnnouncing the Clippy feature freeze
Clippy, Rust's linter, is entering a 12-week feature freeze from June 26th to September 18th, 2025, during which no new features will be accepted, only bug fixes. The freeze is necessary due to maintenance challenges with over 750 existing lints. The team will focus on improving lint accuracy, reducing false positives, and enhancing the contribution experience. Users can still report bugs and contribute fixes, while new lint proposals will be queued for review after the freeze ends.
Inside Rust Blog·26wThis Development-cycle in Cargo: 1.92
Cargo 1.92 development cycle introduces a build performance guide in the official documentation, advances Cargo script stabilization with frontmatter syntax improvements and arg[0] handling, refines public dependencies feature with enhanced cargo tree filtering, and implements a new build-dir layout centered on build units rather than file roles to enable better garbage collection, locking, and caching. The team also continues migrating error messages to annotate-snippets and adds structured logging for build analysis.
