Description
The following is rustfmt's formatting on 2025-02-17 4d91de4e48 (the version currently on the Rust Playground):
impl<'a, T, I> Ptr<'a, T, I>
where
T: 'a + TransparentWrapper<I, UnsafeCellVariance = Covariant> + ?Sized,
I: Invariants,
{
pub(crate) fn transparent_wrapper_into_inner(
self,
) -> Ptr<
'a,
T::Inner,
(
I::Aliasing,
<T::AlignmentVariance as AlignmentVariance<I::Alignment>>::Applied,
<T::ValidityVariance as ValidityVariance<I::Validity>>::Applied,
),
>
where {
}
}
The where clause should probably be indented by four spaces.
Also note that, when wrapped in a module, the where clause is still not indented at all:
mod foo {
impl<'a, T, I> Ptr<'a, T, I>
where
T: 'a + TransparentWrapper<I, UnsafeCellVariance = Covariant> + ?Sized,
I: Invariants,
{
pub(crate) fn transparent_wrapper_into_inner(
self,
) -> Ptr<
'a,
T::Inner,
(
I::Aliasing,
<T::AlignmentVariance as AlignmentVariance<I::Alignment>>::Applied,
<T::ValidityVariance as ValidityVariance<I::Validity>>::Applied,
),
>
where {
}
}
}
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.

- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reproducing the supplied Rust examples with the rustfmt version described in the issue, including the nested module case. Trace the formatting path for an empty where clause and add a regression test covering both examples. Done means the where clause is indented consistently with the surrounding impl, including inside a module.
