 fix: add declarations for operator<<(std::ostream&, expr const&) and operator<<(std::ostream&, context const&) in the kernel
 
+This PR adds declarations `operator<<` for raw printing.
 The actual implementation of these two operators is outside of the

 The compiler does not generate an error message. It silently uses the
 operator bool() to coerce the expression into a Boolean. This produces
 counter-intuitive behavior, and may confuse developers.

@@ -80,3 +80,10 @@ Unlike most Lean projects, all submodules of the `Lean` module begin with the
 `prelude` keyword. This disables the automated import of `Init`, meaning that
 developers need to figure out their own subset of `Init` to import. This is done
 such that changing files in `Init` doesn't force a full rebuild of `Lean`.

+### Testing against Mathlib/Batteries
+You can test a Lean PR against Mathlib and Batteries by rebasing your PR
+on to `nightly-with-mathlib` branch. (It is fine to force push after rebasing.)
+CI will generate a branch of Mathlib and Batteries called `lean-pr-testing-NNNN`
+that uses the toolchain for your PR, and will report back to the Lean PR with results from Mathlib CI.
