Tracking issue: crater is slow

2

Crater has a number of inefficiencies that can be resolved to make life better for everyone. #### Impactful - [x] https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/crater/issues/96 - generate-lockfile does a registry update - [x] https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/crater/issues/101...

Cargo should not allow crates to tread on the target directory

2

The tests for tarpaulin run `cargo clean`, which nukes the target directory. https://github.com/xd009642/tarpaulin/blob/083fec9ef018dd38516d1929b0fbedf06042fd60/src/lib.rs#L109

Consider splitting up `build` and `test --no-run`

Low priority, but we are losing some information. See https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/crater/issues/186#issuecomment-373222369

Implement a new approach to consistent crate failures

3

Some crates consistently fail to build. The docker image currently installs 'a bunch of stuff' in the hope this will help more crates build, but there are things like tex...

Git dependencies don't work due to global lock

Crater should use the same cargo version to generate lockfiles as to do the build

https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/4563 has made generating with stable and building with beta and `--frozen` break. cc @Mark-Simulacrum

Any evidence at all of a previous ex of the same name (results, build artifacts, whatever) should be grounds to refuse to do anything. When doing second runs of PRs...

Use void to indicate that parsing will never return an Err

2

Make it more explicit, both in documentation and the type system, that parsing will never error. (I would've used `!` but it's unstable)

Allow unbounded recursion and remove double parsing json

Reasoning: we trust Cargo output and fixes #215

Cargo web suppresses error output when JSON is too nested
