132- Then, edit ` config.toml ` . You may want to search for, uncomment, and update
133- the following settings:
134-
135- - ` debug = true ` : enables debug symbols and ` debug! ` logging, takes a bit longer to compile.
136- - ` incremental = true ` : enables incremental compilation of the compiler itself,
137- which can significantly speed things up. This is turned off by default
138- because it's technically unsound; sometimes it will cause weird crashes.
139- Also, it can consume a lot of disk space. This has the same effect as the
140- ` -i ` or ` --incremental ` flags.
141- - ` llvm-config ` : enables building with system LLVM. [ See this chapter] [ sysllvm ]

143- on my laptop; others have reported 15 minutes or faster with incremental

135+ $ x.py setup
136+ Welcome to the Rust project! What do you want to do with x.py?
137+ a) Contribute to the standard library
138+ b) Contribute to the compiler
139+ c) Contribute to the compiler, and also modify LLVM or codegen
140+ d) Install Rust from source
141+ Please choose one (a/b/c/d): a
142+ `x.py` will now use the configuration at /home/joshua/rustc2/src/bootstrap/defaults/config.toml.library
143+ To get started, try one of the following commands:
144+ - `x.py check`
145+ - `x.py build`
146+ - `x.py test library/std`
147+ - `x.py doc`
148+ For more suggestions, see https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/building/suggested.html

151+ You may also want to set up [ system LLVM] [ sysllvm ] to avoid building LLVM from source.
