Canonical definitions of `home_dir`, `cargo_home`, and `rustup_home`.
|
|
|
|
This provides the definition of `home_dir` used by Cargo and rustup,
|
|
as well functions to find the correct value of `CARGO_HOME` and
|
|
`RUSTUP_HOME`.
|
|
|
|
The definition of `home_dir` provided by the standard library is
|
|
incorrect because it considers the `HOME` environment variable on
|
|
Windows. This causes surprising situations where a Rust program will
|
|
behave differently depending on whether it is run under a Unix
|
|
emulation environment like Cygwin or MinGW. Neither Cargo nor rustup
|
|
use the standard library's definition - they use the definition here.
|
|
|
|
This crate further provides two functions, `cargo_home` and
|
|
`rustup_home`, which are the canonical way to determine the location
|
|
that Cargo and rustup store their data.
