Expect:

fmt::is_formattable<void>::value == false

Actual (build error):

I think it's fine for is_formattable to give a compile-time error for void because it's not something that can be passed as an argument to a formatting function.

But a compile-time error breaks a possible enable_if condition like std::is_void<T>::value || is_formattable<T, Char>::value.
See: #4148

A possible workaround in this situation is to replace the || by disjunction_v (Untested - that assumes that is_formattable is suitable as such a predicate).

No, this is not working

Thinking more of it, other traits do work with void so let's make is_formattable work with it too.

What about using std::is_void instead of std::is_same<void, ...>? This would also work for cv void.

- Update from version 11.0.2 to 11.1.3
- Update of rootfile
- Changelog
    11.1.3
	- Fixed compilation on GCC 9.4 (fmtlib/fmt#4313).
	- Worked around an internal compiler error when using C++20 modules with GCC
	  14.2 and earlier (fmtlib/fmt#4295).
	- Worked around a bug in GCC 6 (fmtlib/fmt#4318).
	- Fixed an issue caused by instantiating `formatter<const T>`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4303,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4325). Thanks @timsong-cpp.
	- Fixed formatting into `std::ostreambuf_iterator` when using format string
	  compilation (fmtlib/fmt#4309,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4312). Thanks @phprus.
	- Restored a constraint on the map formatter so that it correctly reports as
	  unformattable when the element is (fmtlib/fmt#4326).
	  Thanks @timsong-cpp.
	- Reduced the size of format specs (fmtlib/fmt#4298).
	- Readded `args()` to `fmt::format_context`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4307,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4310). Thanks @Erroneous1.
	- Fixed a bogus MSVC warning (fmtlib/fmt#4314,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4322). Thanks @ZehMatt.
	- Fixed a pedantic mode error in the CMake config
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4327). Thanks @rlalik.
    11.1.2
	- Fixed ABI compatibility with earlier 11.x versions
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4292).
	- Added `wchar_t` support to the `std::bitset` formatter
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4285,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4286,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4289,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4290). Thanks @phprus.
	- Prefixed CMake components with `fmt-` to simplify usage of {fmt} via
	  `add_subdirectory` (fmtlib/fmt#4283).
	- Updated docs for meson (fmtlib/fmt#4291).
	  Thanks @trim21.
	- Fixed a compilation error in chrono on nvcc
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4297,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4301). Thanks @breyerml.
	- Fixed various warnings
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4288,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4299). Thanks @GamesTrap and @edo9300.
    11.1.1
	- Fixed ABI compatibility with earlier 11.x versions
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4278).
	- Defined CMake components (`core` and `doc`) to allow docs to be installed
	  separately (fmtlib/fmt#4276).
	  Thanks @carlsmedstad.
    11.1.0
	- Improved C++20 module support
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4081,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4083,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4084,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4152,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4153,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4169,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4190,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4234,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4239).
	  Thanks @kamrann and @Arghnews.
	- Reduced debug (unoptimized) binary code size and the number of template
	  instantiations when passing formatting arguments. For example, unoptimized
	  binary code size for `fmt::print("{}", 42)` was reduced by ~40% on GCC and
	  ~60% on clang (x86-64).
	  GCC:
	  - Before: 161 instructions of which 105 are in reusable functions
	    ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/s9bGoo4ze)).
	  - After: 116 instructions of which 60 are in reusable functions
	    ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/r7GGGxMs6)).
	  Clang:
	  - Before: 310 instructions of which 251 are in reusable functions
	    ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/Ts88b7M9o)).
	  - After: 194 instructions of which 135 are in reusable functions
	    ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/vcrjP8ceW)).
	- Added an experimental `fmt::writer` API that can be used for writing to
	  different destinations such as files or strings
	  (fmtlib/fmt#2354).
	  For example ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/rWoKfbP7e)):
		  ```c++
		  #include <fmt/os.h>
		  void write_text(fmt::writer w) {
		    w.print("The answer is {}.", 42);
		  }
		  int main() {
		    // Write to FILE.
		    write_text(stdout);
		    // Write to fmt::ostream.
		    auto f = fmt::output_file("myfile");
		    write_text(f);
		    // Write to std::string.
		    auto sb = fmt::string_buffer();
		    write_text(sb);
		    std::string s = sb.str();
		  }
		  ```
	- Added width and alignment support to the formatter of `std::error_code`.
	- Made `std::expected<void, E>` formattable
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4145,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4148).
	  For example ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/hrj5c6G86)):
		  ```c++
		  fmt::print("{}", std::expected<void, int>());
		  ```
		  prints
		  ```
		  expected()
		  ```
	  Thanks @phprus.
	- Made `fmt::is_formattable<void>` SFINAE-friendly
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4147).
	- Added support for `_BitInt` formatting when using clang
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4007,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4072,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4140,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4173,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4176).
	  For example ([godbolt](https://www.godbolt.org/z/KWjbWec5z)):
		  ```c++
		  using int42 = _BitInt(42);
		  fmt::print("{}", int42(100));
		  ```
	  Thanks @Arghnews.
	- Added the `n` specifier for tuples and pairs
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4107). Thanks @someonewithpc.
	- Added support for tuple-like types to `fmt::join`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4226,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4230). Thanks @phprus.
	- Made more types formattable at compile time
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4127). Thanks @AnthonyVH.
	- Implemented a more efficient compile-time `fmt::formatted_size`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4102,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4103). Thanks @phprus.
	- Fixed compile-time formatting of some string types
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4065). Thanks @torshepherd.
	- Made compiled version of `fmt::format_to` work with
	  `std::back_insert_iterator<std::vector<char>>`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4206,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4211). Thanks @phprus.
	- Added a formatter for `std::reference_wrapper`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4163,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4164). Thanks @yfeldblum and @phprus.
	- Added experimental padding support (glibc `strftime` extension) to `%m`, `%j`
	  and `%Y` (fmtlib/fmt#4161). Thanks @KKhanhH.
	- Made microseconds formatted as `us` instead of `µs` if the Unicode support is
	  disabled (fmtlib/fmt#4088).
	- Fixed an unreleased regression in transcoding of surrogate pairs
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4094,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4095). Thanks @phprus.
	- Made `fmt::appender` satisfy `std::output_iterator` concept
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4092,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4093). Thanks @phprus.
	- Made `std::iterator_traits<fmt::appender>` standard-conforming
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4185). Thanks @CaseyCarter.
	- Made it easier to reuse `fmt::formatter<std::string_view>` for types with
	  an implicit conversion to `std::string_view`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4036,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4055). Thanks @Arghnews.
	- Made it possible to disable `<filesystem>` use via `FMT_CPP_LIB_FILESYSTEM`
	  for compatibility with some video game console SDKs, e.g. Nintendo Switch SDK
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4257,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4258,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4259). Thanks @W4RH4WK and @phprus.
	- Fixed compatibility with platforms that use 80-bit `long double`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4245,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4246). Thanks @jsirpoma.
	- Added support for UTF-32 code units greater than `0xFFFF` in fill
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4201).
	- Fixed handling of legacy encodings on Windows with GCC
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4162).
	- Made `fmt::to_string` take `fmt::basic_memory_buffer` by const reference
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4261,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4262). Thanks @sascha-devel.
	- Added `fmt::dynamic_format_arg_store::size`
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4270). Thanks @hannes-harnisch.
	- Removed the ability to control locale usage via an undocumented
	  `FMT_STATIC_THOUSANDS_SEPARATOR` in favor of `FMT_USE_LOCALE`.
	- Renamed `FMT_EXCEPTIONS` to `FMT_USE_EXCEPTIONS` for consistency with other
	  similar macros.
	- Improved include directory ordering to reduce the chance of including
	  incorrect headers when using multiple versions of {fmt}
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4116). Thanks @cdzhan.
	- Made it possible to compile a subset of {fmt} without the C++ runtime.
	- Improved documentation and README
	  (fmtlib/fmt#4066,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4117,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4203,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4235). Thanks @zyctree and @nikola-sh.
	- Improved the documentation generator (fmtlib/fmt#4110,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4115). Thanks @rturrado.
	- Improved CI (fmtlib/fmt#4155,
	  fmtlib/fmt#4151). Thanks @phprus.
	- Fixed various warnings and compilation issues
