auto merge of #14805 : zzmp/rust/patch-1, r=alexcrichton
The guide previously stated: > The compiler will automatically convert a box box point to a reference like &point. This fixes the doubled word `box`, so the statement reads > The compiler will automatically convert a box point to a reference like &point. The code it is referring to is `compute_distance(&on_the_stack, on_the_heap);`, so a single `box` is appropriate.

This is another form of borrowing; in this case, the contents of the owned box are being lent out. |
