cargo audit fix subcommand

This tool supports an experimental feature to automatically update Cargo.toml to fix vulnerable dependency requirements.

To enable it, install cargo audit with the fix feature enabled:

$ cargo install cargo-audit --features=fix

Once installed, run cargo audit fix to automatically fix vulnerable dependency requirements:

This will modify Cargo.toml in place. To perform a dry run instead, which shows a preview of what dependencies would be upgraded, run cargo audit fix --dry-run.

Using cargo audit on Travis CI

To automatically run cargo audit on every build in Travis CI, you can add the following to your .travis.yml:

yaml language: rust cache: cargo # cache cargo-audit once installed before_script: - cargo install --force cargo-audit - cargo generate-lockfile script: - cargo audit

Using cargo audit on GitHub Action
