Copy link 

> rustup toolchain install 1.13
error: toolchain '1.13' is not installed
> rustup toolchain install 1.13.0
....

This confused me for a while. I would have expected something like "1.13 is not a valid toolchain", at minimum, and ideally something like:

> rustup toolchain install 1.13
error: '1.13' is not a valid toolchain
Perhaps you meant one of the following?
- 1.13.0
- 1.13.1 // if we had had a point release... :)
