Problem with using cargo tarpaulin

[winksaville]

There is a problem somewhere, if you've previously done a cargo build|test|run
you must do a cargo clean before a cargo tarpaulin will succeed. And then you
may get a link error if you subsequently do a cargo build. This too can be resolved
by doing a cargo clean before the first subsequent cargo build :(

Here is the error I'm seeing:

wink@3900x:~/prgs/rust/projects/binance-auto-sell (main)

After a cargo clean I see:

Added issue #736 to trapaulin repo.

Semi fixed as tarpaulin now automatically cleans so just do a cargo tarpaulin.
BUT you must do a cargo clean before doing any subsequent cargo build|run|test.
What I do now is use a trivial shell script cargo-precommit:

echo clippy ; cargo clippywink@3900x:~/prgs/rust/projects/binance-auto-sell (main)
$ cat ./cargo-pre-commit 
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e
echo check ; cargo check
echo fmt ; cargo fmt
echo test ; cargo test
echo tarpaulin ; cargo tarpaulin
echo clean ; cargo clean
echo clippy ; cargo clippy

Which does a cargo clean before cargo clippy as the last operation, so I don't need to worry about it.
If you copy it to ~/.cargo/bin/:

wink@3900x:~/prgs/rust/projects/binance-auto-sell (main)
$ cp ./cargo-precommit ~/.cargo/bin/

And then just do a cargo pre-commit before commiting:

wink@3900x:~/prgs/rust/projects/binance-auto-sell (main)
$ cp ./cargo-precommit ~/.cargo/bin/
