-//! Tidy check to ensure that `[dependencies]` and `extern crate` are in sync.
-//!
-//! This tidy check ensures that all crates listed in the `[dependencies]`
-//! section of a `Cargo.toml` are present in the corresponding `lib.rs` as
-//! `extern crate` declarations. This should help us keep the DAG correctly
-//! structured through various refactorings to prune out unnecessary edges.
