Switch from asdf to mise (formerly called rtx) to install dependencies in .tool-versions
Overview
@pedropombeiro mentioned rtx in #dev_tip_of_the_day as an alternative to asdf that is not based on shims. rtx focuses on performance and backwards compatibility with asdf, so there wouldn't need to be any changes to the existing setup. See the benchmarks provided by @pedropombeiro below:
Another edifying benchmark:
Tasks
-
Update CI jobs to use miseto test the new configuration. -
Set mise.enabledtotruein the default settings. -
Ensure miseupdates automatically when a new version is released. -
Update documentation to reflect the switch from asdftomise.
