-### What it does
-This lint checks for `.to_string()` method calls on values of type `String`.
-
-### Why is this bad?
-The `to_string` method is also used on other types to convert them to a string.
-When called on a `String` it only clones the `String`, which can be better expressed with `.clone()`.
-
-### Example
-```
-// example code where clippy issues a warning
-let msg = String::from("Hello World");
-let _ = msg.to_string();
-```
-Use instead:
-```
-// example code which does not raise clippy warning
-let msg = String::from("Hello World");
-let _ = msg.clone();
-```
