When passed, rustup installs only required components. This would be used for e.g. automation.

Depends on #906

Since I just spent a while trying to figure this out and these issues are still dominating Google results, I'll update these with the current status.

Documentation was opt-in in till early 2017 (like the URLO thread above states), but then they were made required again in March 2017, tracked by #903 in rustup.rs. While that issue wished for "some more options to remove them", that hasn't happened.. yet.

Fortunately #998 seems to have some recent activity towards allowing opt-out for the docs.

I'm guessing the profiles nrc references in #998 might also solve the use case for the '--minimal' flag for this issue.

Yeah. Docs takes absolutely forever to install on windows. Took 4 hours installing 1.30.0, and I ctrl + c'ed it after 3 hours installing 1.31.1

Triage: this now exists as --profile=minimal, so I think it can be closed.
