This quote from Linus is what I find inspiring hope of a future wider adoption or Rust:

Thanks. I decided to try to do the merge on my own, but failed. I came close, but it was good to have your example merge to see what I got wrong.

The pin_init becoming a crate of its own, but ‘pin::Pin’ being in the core crate ended up messing with my “monkey see, monkey do” approach to Rust merges.

I’ll learn eventually, in the meantime please do continue to give me example merges and I’ll use them as training wheels.
