Publishing

conta publish walks every crate in the workspace, figures out the correct publish order from cargo metadata, and runs cargo publish on each one — skipping crates whose current version is already on crates.io.

To exclude workspace crates from publishing (examples, xtask, internal tools, etc.), list them under [workspace.metadata.conta] in the root Cargo.toml:

[workspace.metadata.conta]
ignore = ["xtask", "examples-foo"]

If a non-ignored crate depends on an ignored one, conta publish exits non-zero before uploading anything and names the offending edge.

--dry-run prints the resolved plan (<crate>@<version> would publish or ... already published, skipping) without invoking cargo publish. It still hits crates.io to determine which crates are already published — a dry run is not an offline run.
