About:
cargo-release is a Cargo subcommand that automates the release process for Rust crates. It handles version bumping, committing changes, tagging releases, and publishing to crates.io. This tool streamlines the workflow, ensuring consistent and error-free releases.
Key Features:
  • Automated version bumping (major, minor, patch)
  • Automatic git tagging and changelog generation
  • Publishes to crates.io and pushes to git remotes
  • Pre-release version handling and dry-run support
Use Cases:
  • Automating the release pipeline in CI/CD environments
  • Standardizing release procedures across multiple Rust crates
Alternatives:
  • custom shell scripts – cargo-release provides a robust, cross-platform solution with built-in safety checks, unlike brittle custom scripts.
