A collection of lints to catch common mistakes and improve your

Lints are divided into categories, each with a default [lint
|
|
|
|
|
level](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/lints/levels.html). You can choose how
|
|
|
|
|
much Clippy is supposed to ~~annoy~~ help you by changing the lint level by
|
|
|
|
|
category.

The [lint list](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html) also
|
|
|
|
|
contains "restriction lints", which are for things which are usually not
|
|
|
|
|
considered "bad", but may be useful to turn on in specific cases. These should
|
|
|
|
|
be used very selectively, if at all.
