* RFC: [#2834](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2834-cargo-report-future-incompat.md)
* rustc Tracking Issue: [#71249](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71249)
The `-Z future-incompat-report` flag enables the creation of a future-incompat report
for all dependencies. This makes users aware if any of their crate's dependencies
might stop compiling with a future version of Rust.
The `-Z future-incompat-report` flag causes Cargo to check for
future-incompatible warnings in all dependencies. These are warnings for
changes that may become hard errors in the future, causing the dependency to
stop building in a future version of rustc. If any warnings are found, a small
notice is displayed indicating that the warnings were found, and provides
instructions on how to display a full report.
A full report can be displayed with the `cargo report future-incompatibilities
-Z future-incompat-report --id ID` command, or by running the build again with
the `--future-incompat-report` flag. The developer should then update their
dependencies to a version where the issue is fixed, or work with the
developers of the dependencies to help resolve the issue.
