and each cargo-install instance creates and uses its own build directory. This
allows running several cargo-install instances in parallel.

If we fail to create a temporary directory for whatever reason fallback to
creating and using a target-install directory in the current directory.

Qs:

  • Should we preserve the current behavior (target-install in cwd) as a fallback or remove it and error if we can't create a TempDir in env::temp_dir()? (we currently error if we can't create target-install directory in cwd)
  • Should I add tests for the issues I raised at cargo-install: build directory should be in $TEMPDIR #2606? If yes, how can I test cargo-install parallelism? Lack of "Blocking waiting for file lock on build directory" in the output of the cargo commands? or something else?

Should this be target-install instead of cargo-install for consistency with the current/fallback behavior?

Nah this is fine

Yeah probably can't hurt to add tests. You can check out some tests in tests/test_cargo_concurrent.rs and perhaps do something similar?

Pushed a commit adding tests. Checked that both tests don't pass without this PR.

Qs:
- Should we preserve the current behavior (`target-install` in `cwd`) as a fallback or remove it and error if we can't create a `TempDir` in `env::temp_dir()`? (we currently error if we can't create `target-install` directory in `cwd`)

- Should I add tests for the issues I raised at #2606? If yes, how can I test `cargo-install` parallelism? Lack of "Blocking waiting for file lock on build directory" in the output of the `cargo` commands? or something else?
