@@ -6,7 +6,9 @@ Our approach to "clean code" is two-fold:
 It is explicitly OK for a reviewer to flag only some nits in the PR, and then send a follow-up cleanup PR for things which are easier to explain by example, cc-ing the original author.
 Sending small cleanup PRs (like renaming a single local variable) is encouraged.

 Everyone knows that it's better to send small & focused pull requests.
 The problem is, sometimes you *have* to, eg, rewrite the whole compiler, and that just doesn't fit into a set of isolated PRs.

+## Crates.io Dependencies
 
 We try to be very conservative with usage of crates.io dependencies.
 Don't use small "helper" crates (exception: `itertools` is allowed).
 If there's some general reusable bit of code you need, consider adding it to the `stdx` crate.

+We don't have specific rules around git history hygiene.
+Maintaining clean git history is strongly encouraged, but not enforced.
+Use rebase workflow, it's OK to rewrite history during PR review process.
+After you are happy with the state of the code, please use [interactive rebase](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History) to squash fixup commits.

+Avoid @mentioning people in commit messages and pull request descriptions(they are added to commit message by bors).

+## Clippy
+
+We don't enforce Clippy.
+A number of default lints have high false positive rate.
+Selectively patching false-positives with `allow(clippy)` is considered worse than not using Clippy at all.

 This snippets should be minimal -- if you copy-paste a snippet of real code into the tests, make sure to remove everything which could be removed.
