Description
This issue tracks the release notes text for #127589.
Steps
- Proposed text is drafted by PR author (or team) making the noteworthy change.
- Issue is nominated for release team review of clarity for wider audience.
- Release team includes text in release notes/blog posts.
Release notes text
The responsible team for the underlying change should edit this section to replace the automatically generated link with a succinct description of what changed, drawing upon text proposed by the author (either in discussion or through direct editing).
# Rustdoc
- [rustdoc-search: improve type-driven search](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/127589)
Tip
Use the previous releases categories to help choose which one(s) to use.
The category will be de-duplicated with all the other ones by the release team.
More than one section can be included if needed.
Release blog section
If the change is notable enough for inclusion in the blog post, the responsible team should add content to this section.
Otherwise leave it empty.
You can search functions in library documentation, such as `cargo doc --open` or `rustup doc`,
using the types of their parameters and return values.
The exact syntax can be found in the <kbd>(?) Help</kbd> button, but just as an example,
`Option<T>, (T -> U) -> Option<U>` will return search results for `Option::map`.
This release cleans up several aspects of the matching logic,
but the most notable part is that
it now shows the type signature of a matching function below its search result.
