Walkthrough
Compilation now processes dependencies before preparing each unit and prepares metabuild work during compilation. Content-mode freshness tracks build outputs with checksums and output IDs. Tests cover dependency output timestamp changes and updated freshness diagnostics.
Changes: Compilation and output freshness
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Output fingerprint representation and validation src/compiler/fingerprint/output.rs
OutputFingerprint stores output IDs, check times, and checksums. It parses saved metadata, compares output state, and records checksums after builds.
Fingerprint integration and persistence src/compiler/fingerprint/mod.rs, src/compiler/fingerprint/dep_info.rs, src/compiler/mod.rs
Content mode enables output tracking for units with outputs. Filesystem checks validate tracked outputs, dependency hashes include output IDs, and fingerprint files store output metadata. Rustc and rustdoc use CHECKSUM_ALGO.
Dependency-first compilation and metabuild preparation src/compiler/custom_build.rs, src/compiler/mod.rs
compile processes dependencies before preparing the current unit. It passes force_rebuild to dependencies only when they are build roots and prepares metabuild work for applicable custom-build targets.

Explanation
The title "rework output freshness checking when checksum freshness is content" matches the main change in the changeset. The diff adds output fingerprint tracking (OutputFingerprint, OutputId, output_id on Fingerprint) for checksum freshness, and it changes how dependency outputs are validated and how fingerprint files store output state. The title is specific and describes the primary focus. Minor issue: the phrase "when checksum freshness is content" is awkward and may confuse readers. The title also omits the metabuild and compile-order changes, which is acceptable because the title does not need to cover every detail.

In content mode, a rebuilt dependency gets a new OutputFingerprint::output_id. Cargo reports this as UnitDependencyInfoChanged, which formats as info of dependency \` changed. The [..]` matcher accepts any text, so these tests can pass with an unrelated dirty reason.

Retain output_id when rebuilt output bytes are unchanged.
A forced root rebuild can update a dependency fingerprint without changing its output bytes. begin_build assigns a new output_id, and finish_build does not compare the new checksums with the persisted checksums. On a later build, an otherwise fresh consumer compares dependency IDs before dependency hashes and can rebuild solely because the ID changed.
Changed source files and hashed build inputs can make the consumer dirty independently. They do not prevent this forced-rebuild path.
Keep the previous ID until the completed checksums are compared with the persisted checksums. Generate a new ID only when the checksums differ.

Correct the short-fingerprint format documentation.
The writer appends only output_id and the Unix-millisecond checked_at after the hash. The parser reads those two fields. No version field is written or parsed. Remove “a version” or implement version handling in both paths. Otherwise the documentation describes a format that the code does not produce. (github.com)
