This +project mandates its use and therefore eliminates personal preference in +code style (for better or worse). + +Formatting checks are run during `make check` and, on failure, will output +the diff that would be applied if you ran `make fmt` (or `make fix`); this +will run `cargo fmt` for you (and will use the binaries configured via +`configure`). + +Since developers should be doing test-driven development (TDD) and therefore +should be running `make check` frequently, the hope is that frequent +feedback on formatting issues will allow developers to quickly adjust their +habits to avoid triggering formatting errors at all. + +If you want to automatically fix formatting errors and then run tests: + +```sh +$ make fmt check +``` |
