Release 4 Breaking Changes

  • The main entry point for use has changed from generate_cargo_keys to vergen
  • There are now 4 features that allow you to control what instructions can be generated (build, cargo, git, and rustc).
    • The build feature enables the VERGEN_BUILD_* instructions.
    • The git feature enables the VERGEN_GIT_* instructions and the cargo:rerun-if-changed instructions.
    • The rustc feature enables the VERGEN_RUSTC_* instructions.
    • The cargo feature enables the VERGEN_CARGO_* instructions.
    • By default, all features are enabled.
    • You can build with all features disabled, which basically make the vergen function a no-op.
    • You can still use ConstantsFlags with the gen function to toggle individual cargo instructions, but it has been deprecated.
  • The generated instructions have been normalized. Therefore, you may need to update what env variable you are referring to in code. I've included a list below of the full set of instructions that can be generated for reference.

  • Under the hood, the Commands used for git have been removed in lieu of using the git2 library directly.
  • git2 is also used to determine the HEAD path and the path that it refers to for the cargo:rerun-if-changed instructions. This is more reliable then the manual method that was in place before.
  • I've migrated the CI stuff from Travis to GitHub Actions.
