説明

Description

See https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/10695

When a variable holding a collection (such as Vec/VecDeque/HashMap/BTreeMap) is replaced by a new empty instance, it can be more efficient to instead clear the existing one to be able to reuse the allocated memory.

For example, x = Vec::new() can be replaced by x.clear(): x will be an empty vector, except that the storage (and capacity) will be inherited from the previous instance.
