This issue is currently blocking me to upgrade rustc on docs.rs.
When I try to run python x.py dist, bootstrap is failing with following output:
Dist rustc stage2 (i686-pc-windows-msvc)
failed to execute command: "date" "+%B %Y"
error: The system cannot find the file specified. (os error 2)
failed to run: c:\rust\build\bootstrap\debug\bootstrap --config debian\config-win32.toml dist
Build completed unsuccessfully in 0:01:24
Windows doesn't have a date executable. I tried to copy MSYS's date (along with all dependencies) to $PATH, it worked for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc but still failing on i686-pc-windows-msvc.
date command is being called in src/bootstrap/dist.rs#L450-L451. It should be fairly easy to replace this with time crate.
