Description
Description
In the run https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/actions/runs/16915891054#user-content-unnecessary-semicolon, one of the links is:
https://docs.rs/bat/0.24.0/src/bat/bin/bat/main.rs.html#287
But that link is invalid, because apparently docs.rs doesn't include the src/bin folder where the bat binary is defined. Though if I go to the "bat-0.24.0 > Links > Source" in the top menu, I'm able to see all the files of the crate, in particular the main.rs at:
https://docs.rs/crate/bat/0.24.0/source/src/bin/bat/main.rs#287

Research direction
Start with the linked lintcheck run and trace the entry point that generated the docs.rs URL for bat 0.24.0. Compare it with the crate source URL shown in the issue; done when lintcheck produces a valid link for src/bin/bat/main.rs#287.
