//! Panic messages for humans
//!
//! Handles panics by calling
//! [`std::panic::set_hook`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/panic/fn.set_hook.html)
//! to make errors nice for humans.
//! Reduce the effort for users to report panics back to you
//!
//! ## Why?
//! When you're building a CLI, polish is super important. Even though Rust is
//! pretty great at safety, it's not unheard of to access the wrong index in a
//! vector or have an assert fail somewhere.
//! You can still get the raw output by either:
//! - Running a debug build
//! - Setting `RUST_BACKTRACE=1`
//!
//! When an error eventually occurs, you probably will want to know about it. So
//! instead of just providing an error message on the command line, we can create a
//! call to action for people to submit a report.
//! ## Example
//!
//! This should empower people to engage in communication, lowering the chances
//! people might get frustrated. And making it easier to figure out what might be
//! causing bugs.
//!
//! ### Default Output
//!
//! ```txt
//! thread 'main' panicked at 'oops', examples/main.rs:2:3
//! note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace.
//! Add to your `fn main()`:
//! ```rust
//! human_panic::setup_panic!();
//! ```
//!
//! ### Human-Panic Output
//!
//! When run locally in a release build:
//! ```txt
//! Well, this is embarrassing.
//!
//! human-panic had a problem and crashed. To help us diagnose the problem you can send us a crash report.
//! my-program had a problem and crashed. To help us diagnose the problem you can send us a crash report.
//!
//! We have generated a report file at "/var/folders/zw/bpfvmq390lv2c6gn_6byyv0w0000gn/T/report-8351cad6-d2b5-4fe8-accd-1fcbf4538792.toml". Submit an issue or email with the subject of "human-panic Crash Report" and include the report as an attachment.

/// The Metadata struct can't implement `Default` because of orphan rules, which
