cargo-smart-release v0.5.0

on GitHub

A release with breaking changes as the dependency engine was reworked to handle even more cases
and make future improvements easier.

New Features

• Respect publish=false in cargo manifest

• Perform safety bumps without forcing a publish.

  This is what's required to assure that future publishes of such
  transitively dependent crates won't cause downstream breakage the next time the tool is run.

• Inform about safety bumps more explicitly,
  and generally greatly improve the way the course of action is described.

Bug Fixes

• Dependency resolution.

  Previously the ordering of crates for release might not have been
  correct due to this issue that is now fixed.

  We need depth-first traversals and previously it would extend skipped
  dependencies, effectively putting them into their own ordering.

  Previously it would restore that ordering, but not anymore, causing
  this bug that was entirely unnecessary.

• --no-changelog during smart-release is now actually working

  Previously the flag had no effect and changelogs would always be
  generated, possibly stopping the release as at least one of them
  needed manual work.

• Pin version of clap to beta 5.

  This assures we don't get broken automatically in future.
  Previously that wasn't possible as the dependency of clap,
  clap-derive was also using a beta verion and wasn't constrained,
  hence it would be updated and cause breaking changes with pinned
  versions of consumers of clap.

Changed (BREAKING)

• changelog subcommand inverts --dependencies to --no-dependencies

• Remove --no-multi-crate-release support entirely

  As the default is to do multi-crate releases and now having to deal
  with single-create releases reduces maintenance burden.

  The solution to this problem is to not specify version constraints in
  dev-dependencies to workspace crates.

  We also don't check for this anymore, which might be re-added
  at some point if there is demand.This makes dependency resolution similar to cargo smart-release by default and is less surprising.
