Release Notes: cargo-sane v0.3.0

Release Date: November 17, 2025

🎉 Major Feature Release - All planned commands are now fully implemented!

🚀 Highlights

This release marks a significant milestone for cargo-sane, bringing the project from 40% to 100% feature complete. All five planned commands are now fully functional with comprehensive test coverage.

New Commands

🛡️ Security Vulnerability Scanning (cargo sane health)

Protect your project from known security vulnerabilities with built-in advisory scanning.

cargo sane health

Features:

  • Checks dependencies against RustSec-style advisory database
  • Color-coded severity levels (🔴 Critical, 🟠 High, 🟡 Medium, 🟢 Low)
  • Shows affected versions and patched versions
  • Links to advisory details
  • JSON output for CI/CD integration (--json flag)

Example:

🏥 Health Report:
  Total dependencies: 12
  ⚠️ Vulnerable: 2

🚨 Vulnerabilities Found:
  🟠 hyper 0.14.5 (HIGH)
  ID: RUSTSEC-2021-0078
  Fix: Update to 0.14.10

🧹 Unused Dependency Detection (cargo sane clean)

Keep your Cargo.toml lean by removing dependencies you're not actually using.

cargo sane clean --dry-run

Features:

  • Scans all source files (src/, tests/, examples/)
  • Detects use statements, extern crate, and macro invocations
  • Handles crate name normalization (hyphens ↔ underscores)
  • Dry-run mode for safe preview
  • Automatic backup before removal
  • Interactive confirmation dialog

🔧 Dependency Conflict Resolution (cargo sane fix)

Identify and resolve version conflicts in your dependency tree.

cargo sane fix

Features:

  • Analyzes dependency tree using cargo tree --duplicates
  • Identifies packages with multiple versions
  • Suggests optimal version to use
  • Auto-fix mode via cargo update (--auto flag)
  • Interactive workflow with confirmation
  • Explains conflict causes and solutions

⚙️ Configuration System

Customize cargo-sane behavior with configuration files:

Locations (in priority order):

  1. .cargo-sane.toml (project directory)
  2. ~/.config/cargo-sane/config.toml (global)
  3. ~/.cargo-sane.toml (global alternative)

Available Settings:

auto_update_patch = false    # Auto-approve patch updates
auto_update_minor = false    # Auto-approve minor updates
ignore_crates = []           # Crates to skip during checks
verbose = false              # Show detailed output
create_backups = true        # Backup before modifications
check_security = true        # Enable security checks
