Usage

cargo release [level]

• See the reference for more on level, other CLI arguments, and configuration file format.
• See also the FAQ for help in figuring out how to adapt cargo-release to your workflow.

Prerequisite

• Your project should be managed by git.

Dry run

By default, cargo-release runs in dry-run mode so you can safely run it and verify what it will do. - Increase the logging level with each additional -v to get more details - Speed up dry-run by skipping cargo-publishs verify step with --no-verify

Once you are ready, pass the --execute flag.
