Hold tinyvec at 1.12 until 1.13 builds again - #341
Conversation
`tinyvec` 1.13.0, published on 2026-09-03, imports `alloc::vec` as a module and then invokes the `vec!` macro. On the nightly this repository pins the macro no longer resolves: ```text error: cannot find macro `vec` in this scope --> tinyvec-1.13.0/src/tinyvec.rs:710:21 note: `vec` is imported here, but it is a module, not a macro ``` The crate arrives transitively through Bevy's text and font stack, and this workspace commits no `Cargo.lock`, so every build resolves the newest compatible release and reaches the broken one. `make lint` and any `--all-features` build fail on untouched `main`; the failure reproduces on a clean detached checkout with an isolated target directory, so it is not a local artefact. Add a tilde requirement, which `AGENTS.md` permits for a documented lock to patch-level updates. It is a resolution constraint only: no code in this workspace names the crate, and the comment says so, so a later reader does not mistake it for a dependency that can simply be dropped. Upstream has not yanked 1.13.0. Lokathor/tinyvec#225 reports the same failure and Lokathor/tinyvec#226 proposes the fix. Removal is tracked by #340.

The constraint had no test, so the only thing standing between a future contributor and the broken release was a comment. Widen the requirement by accident and the symptom is a macro error inside a crate nothing in this workspace mentions. `tests/dependency_resolution.rs` reads what Cargo actually resolved and fails if `tinyvec` 1.13 or later is selected, naming the version and pointing at the requirement. It also fails if the crate leaves the graph entirely, which is the signal that the constraint and the test should both go. Record the constraint in the developers guide as well: what it is for, why a transitive dependency needs a direct requirement, why a tilde rather than a caret, and the condition for removing it. A bare version requirement with no explanation reads as a real dependency, and the next contributor cannot tell whether dropping it is safe.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/developers-guide.md`:
- Around line 304-306: Reflow the paragraph around the `alloc::vec` and `vec!`
references in the documentation so each line is at most 80 columns, keeping the
inline code spans intact and preserving the existing wording.
- Line 302: Update the documentation near the tinyvec entry to describe tinyvec
as a direct Cargo dependency that is used only for dependency resolution, and
state that repository source code does not name it. Remove the inaccurate claim
that it is not a dependency.
In `@tests/dependency_resolution.rs`:
- Line 6: Update the Rustdoc comment in tests/dependency_resolution.rs so the
full compiler error uses double backticks, while retaining the inner backticks
around vec and the existing wording.
- Around line 52-55: Update the version-parsing helper used by the dependency
resolution test to retain the complete resolved version, or at minimum its major
and minor components, instead of extracting only the minor segment. Ensure the
comparison at the affected assertion rejects versions later than 1.13.0, and
format the failure message with the full selected version rather than the
partial value.
- Around line 61-63: Move the dependency-resolution validation out of the
post-compilation integration-test path so it can run before compiling tinyvec
and workspace dependencies, or explicitly document the existing test as a
post-resolution check. Update the check centered on
the_constrained_crate_resolves_below_its_broken_release in
tests/dependency_resolution.rs and the corresponding guidance in
docs/developers-guide.md at lines 311-313; ensure both locations consistently
describe the selected-version verification and its pre-build or post-resolution
timing.

The guide called `tinyvec` "not a dependency", which is wrong: it is a direct Cargo dependency whose only purpose is to bound resolution. Say that instead, so a reader looking at `Cargo.toml` is not told the opposite of what is there. Both the guide and the test also implied the test runs before the build. It does not. Cargo compiles the dependency graph before an integration test runs, so a selected 1.13.0 fails the build first with the macro error. What the test catches directly is the case that would otherwise pass silently: a widened requirement whose resolved version still compiles but sits outside the range this workspace has verified. Both places now say that, and the guide points at `cargo tree --invert tinyvec` for the case where the build fails first. `ResolvedVersion` replaces the bare minor number. The old helper kept only the second component, so a resolved 2.0.0 read as minor 0 and passed a check meant to reject anything at or beyond 1.13, and the failure message printed `1.[13]` rather than the version Cargo chose. The type keeps the original text for the message and the major and minor pair for the comparison. Also reflow the guide paragraph to 80 columns and wrap the compiler error in double backticks so Rustdoc renders it as one code span.

tinyvecat 1.12 so they pass again. Nothing else changes.What broke
tinyvec1.13.0 was published on 2026-09-03 at 21:13 UTC. Itssrc/tinyvec.rsimports
alloc::vecas a module and then invokes thevec!macro, so on thenightly this repository pins the macro no longer resolves:

Why a direct dependency
A transitive dependency cannot be constrained from outside the graph, so the
bound has to be a direct requirement. The comment in
Cargo.tomlsays plainlythat it is a resolution constraint and that no code here names the crate, so a
later reader does not mistake it for a dependency that can simply be dropped.

patch-level updates.
Evidence

origin/mainat ef71d57, with anisolated target directory so no shared cache could be blamed.
