v0.10.0
Binstall is a tool to fetch and install Rust-based executables as binaries. It aims to be a drop-in replacement for cargo install
in most cases. Install it today with cargo install cargo-binstall
, from the binaries below, or if you already have it, upgrade with cargo binstall cargo-binstall
.
In this release:
- Binstall now writes to standard meta files
$CARGO_HOME/.crates.toml
and$CARGO_HOME/.crates2.json
. This improves interoperability with other cargo tools. (#205 by @passcod) - We now write binaries and symlinks atomically, to prevent corruption. (#195 by @NobodyXu)
- In most cases, a single HTTP connection will be opened per remote host and re-used, instead of making a new one for each use. (#198 by @NobodyXu)
