Happy holidays everyone, I know this isn't going to get looked at for a few days and it's probably a clone of an existing issue (couldn't find it)
I noticed today that the compiler has invalid links in its error messages. Example:
Yields the error
I love this feature, but that link is incorrect. The correct link is:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch19-04-advanced-types.html?highlight=dynamical#dynamically-sized-types-and-the--sized--trait.
This is just an example, I'm sure there are other error messages that have the same issue. I'm not certain if it's better fixed in the compiler (who wants to rewrite error messages every time docs.rust-lang.org changes an URL?) or if this should be filed as an issue over at that repository.
