Add links to headers in README and CONTRIBUTING
this also adds dependencies to CONTRIBUTING
I'm just getting started building the rust compiler and noticed this information/ability was missing.
It was also missing the gdb dependency for running tests. I pulled the information out of `appveyor.yml` and recommended later than 7.1 because that is what [apt ships](https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=trusty&keywords=gdb). Feel free to tell me something different!
incr.comp.: Switch to red/green change tracking, remove legacy system.
This PR finally switches incremental compilation to [red/green tracking](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/42293) and completely removes the legacy dependency graph implementation -- which includes a few quite costly passes that are simply not needed with the new system anymore.
There's still some documentation to be done and there's certainly still lots of optimizing and tuning ahead -- but the foundation for red/green is in place with this PR. This has been in the making for a long time `:)`

Remove mem::transmute used in Box<str> conversions
Given that https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44877 is failing, I decided to make a separate PR. This is done with the same motivation: to avoid `mem::transmute`-ing non `#[repr(C)]` types.
Overlapping borrows can point to different lvalues.
Overlapping borrows can point to different lvalues.
There's always a basis for the overlap, so instead of removing the assert entirely, I instead pass in the prefix that we found and check that it actually is a prefix of both lvalues.
Fix#44829
make `backtrace = false` compile for windows targets.
when building for windows with `backtrace = false`, `libstd` fails to compile because some modules that use items from `sys_common::backtrace::*` are still included, even though those modules aren't used or referenced by anything.
`sys_common::backtrace` doesn't exist when the backtrace feature is turned off.
--
i've also added `#[cfg(feature = "backtrace")]` to various items that exist exclusively to support `mod backtrace` since the compilation would fail since they would be unused in a configuration with backtraces turned off.
Made `fs::copy` return the length of the main stream
On Windows with the NTFS filesystem, `fs::copy` would return the sum of the
lengths of all streams, which can be different from the length reported by
`metadata` and thus confusing for users unaware of this NTFS peculiarity.
This makes `fs::copy` return the same length `metadata` reports which is the
value it used to return before PR #26751. Note that alternate streams are still
copied; their length is just not included in the returned value.
This change relies on the assumption that the stream with index 1 is always the
main stream in the `CopyFileEx` callback. I could not find any official
document confirming this but empirical testing has shown this to be true,
regardless of whether the alternate stream is created before or after the main
stream.
Resolves#44532
let htmldocck.py check for directories
Since i messed this up during https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44613, i wanted to codify this into the rustdoc tests to make sure that doesn't happen again.
MIR borrowck: move span_label to `borrowck_errors.rs`
The calls to `span_label` are moved and factorized for:
* E0503 (`cannot_use_when_mutably_borrowed()`)
* E0506 (`cannot_assign_to_borrowed()`)
Additionnally, the error E0594 (`cannot_assign_static()`) has been factorized between `check_loan.rs` and `borrowc_check.rs`.
Part of #44596
Move monomorphize::resolve() to librustc
this moves `monomorphize::resolve(..)` to librustc, and re-enables inlining for some trait methods, fixing #44389
@nikomatsakis I've kept the calls to the new `ty::Instance::resolve(....)` always `.unwrap()`-ing for the moment, how/do you want to add more debugging info via `.unwrap_or()` or something like this?
we still have some related `resolve_*` functions on monomorphize, but I wasn't sure moving them was into the scope for this PR too.
@eddyb mind to take a look too?
There's always a basis for the overlap, so instead of removing the
assert entirely, I instead pass in the prefix that we found and check
that it actually is a prefix of both lvalues.

Mir pretty print: Add cleanup comment
I found it useful to add a comment indicating whether or not a
BasicBlock is a cleanup block or not. Hopefully you'll find it
useful too.
Docs for size_of::<#[repr(C)]> items.
Most of this info comes from camlorn's blog post on optimizing struct layout and the Rustonomicon.
I don't really like my wording in the first paragraph.
I also cannot find a definition of what `#[repr(C)]` does for enums that have variants with fields. They're allowed, unlike `#[repr(C)] enum`s with no variants.
