### What it does
2+
checks for `Box::new(T::default())`, which is better written as
3+
`Box::<T>::default()`.
4+
5+
### Why is this bad?
6+
First, it's more complex, involving two calls instead of one.
7+
Second, `Box::default()` can be faster
8+
[in certain cases](https://nnethercote.github.io/perf-book/standard-library-types.html#box).
9+
10+
### Known problems
11+
The lint may miss some cases (e.g. Box::new(String::from(""))).
12+
On the other hand, it will trigger on cases where the `default`
13+
code comes from a macro that does something different based on
14+
e.g. target operating system.
15+
16+
### Example
17+
```
18+
let x: Box<String> = Box::new(Default::default());
19+
```
20+
Use instead:
21+
```
22+
let x: Box<String> = Box::default();
