cargo-release v0.22.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2022-10-21 // over 1 year ago

  • Highlights

    🚀 The goal of this release is improved workspace support, including

    • 📦 Workspace inheritance support
    • 🚀 Greater control over versioning by supporting calling cargo release version as needed and then cargo release --unpublished
    • 🔧 Setting configured crate owners when publishing new crates
    • 📇 Identifying failures early like missing metadata, hitting rate limits, etc
    • 🚀 Inspect changes with cargo release changes, including conventional commit support
    • 👌 Improved defaults

    🚀 This does mean that cargo release (no other args) changed from recovering 🚀 from a failed release to releasing the currently specified versions of crates. 🚀 Recovery is now done more manually with cargo release publish, etc.

    💥 Breaking Changes

    • ⬆️ dependent-versions = "upgrade" is now the default
      • Removed ignore, warn, and error
    • 🚀 Cargo.toml's package.publish = false disables release
    • ✂ Removed --dump-config in favor of cargo release config
    • ✂ Remove --token in favor in favor of more secure ways of authenticating
    • 🚀 cargo release is no longer used for recovery, instead use cargo release publish, cargo release tag, etc
    • 🚀 Error if nothing to release
    • 🔄 Changed standard exit code to 101
