• Eliminate reliance on dirs (6a3e936)

Release 4.0.1

4.0.1

• Account for new rustup show active-toolchain format. Rustup 1.28 had two changes affecting Dylint. One was a change in rustup show active-toolchain's output format; the other was the fact that Rustup no longer automatically installs uninstalled toolchains. This release addresses the former, but not the latter, i.e., you may need to manually install toolchains until the next release. To manually install a toolchain, either cd to a directory containing a rust-toolchain file and type rustup toolchain install, or type rustup toolchain install TOOLCHAIN, where TOOLCHAIN is the toolchain you wish to install. (bda492f and 7e104fd)—thanks @ClSlaid for the fix

Release 4.0.0

4.0.0

• BREAKING CHANGE: Work with Cargo's new hashing algorithm, introduced with Rust 1.85.0. cargo-dylint 4 does not work with Cargo 1.84.x and earlier, and cargo-dylint 3.x does not work with Cargo 1.85.0. If you need to use Cargo 1.84.x or earlier, please continue to use cargo-dylint 3.x. If you have a long term need to use Cargo 1.84.x or earlier, please open an issue. (#1534)

Release 3.5.1

3.5.1

• Have cargo metadata and cargo fetch use the same cargo when building library packages. Using different cargos caused the two commands to refer to different subdirectories within the user's CARGO_HOME, leading to "Could not determine accessed subdirectory" errors. This bug primarily affected projects with rust-toolchain files. (#1519)

Release 3.5.0

3.5.0

• FEATURE: The PATH argument in cargo dylint upgrade PATH is now optional. When omitted, PATH defaults to the current directory. (#1508)—thanks @YanVictorSN

Release 3.4.1

3.4.1

• Account for rust-lang/rust#135880 (#1501)
• Eliminate reliance on is-terminal (#1502)

Release 3.4.0

3.4.0

• Add link to EuroRust 2024 video (#1447)
• FEATURE: Add experimental --auto-correct option. Upgrading a lint's Rust toolchain often causes the lint to break because of changes to Rust APIs. When --auto-correct is enabled, cargo-dylint tries to infer lint fixes from Clippy's commit history. (949cf8f, 625d3d3, c1edcfb, 2753a88, and c515601)
