Module cargo::sources

Implementations of Source trait.

Cargo provides several built-in implementations of Source trait. Namely,

• RegistrySource — A source that provides an index for people to query a crate’s metadata, and fetch files for a certain crate. crates.io falls into this category. So do local registry and sparse registry.
• DirectorySource — Files are downloaded ahead of time. Primarily designed for crates generated from cargo vendor.
• GitSource — This gets crate information from a git repository.
• PathSource — This gets crate information from a local path on the filesystem.
• ReplacedSource — This manages the source replacement feature, redirecting operations on the original source to the replacement.

This module also contains SourceConfigMap, which is effectively the representation of the [source.*] value in Cargo configuration.
