Outdated (Rust 1.17.0) docs hosted on static.rust-lang.org

[softmoth]

What needs to be fixed?

Old docs, with "master" in the URL, are accessible from static.rust-lang.org. This may show up in web search results, older forum posts, etc.

Page(s) Affected

https://static.rust-lang.org/doc/master/rust.html
https://static.rust-lang.org/doc/master/reference.html

Suggested Improvement

Redirect to the current reference documentation: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/

This repo doesn't manage that website, and I'm not sure what does

The static-rust-lang-org s3 bucket contains a master folder with these outdated files.

I suggest to:

• change the static lambda to implement that redirect you suggested
• remove the master directory from the S3 bucket.

Do you want to send a PR to implement the redirect? :)
we have a similar lambda here that you can use as another example.
