Add mdman for generating man pages. This introduces a new utility called `mdman` that converts a markdown-formatted document to a man page. This replaces asciidoctor, with the intent to make it easier to contribute, easier to have consistent formatting across platforms, and easier to generate plain-text documents for use on Windows (for #8456). This also includes a number of formatting fixes. There is some documentation in the `mdman/doc` directory explaining how to use it, and the docs in `src/doc/README.md` have been updated (this explains the structure of the files). The Makefile has been replaced with a simple shell script. CI has been updated to verify the checked-in docs are up-to-date. Perhaps in the future, these can be generated automatically (perhaps by `build.rs`?), but since that requires a bit of build system work (like upstream rust), this is deferred till later.
Cargo
Cargo downloads your Rust project’s dependencies and compiles your project.
Learn more at https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/
Code Status
Code documentation: https://docs.rs/cargo/
Installing Cargo
Cargo is distributed by default with Rust, so if you've got rustc installed
locally you probably also have cargo installed locally.
Compiling from Source
Cargo requires the following tools and packages to build:
gitcurl(on Unix)pkg-config(on Unix, used to figure out thelibsslheaders/libraries)- OpenSSL headers (only for Unix, this is the
libssl-devpackage on ubuntu) cargoandrustc
First, you'll want to check out this repository
git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo
cd cargo
With cargo already installed, you can simply run:
cargo build --release
Adding new subcommands to Cargo
Cargo is designed to be extensible with new subcommands without having to modify Cargo itself. See the Wiki page for more details and a list of known community-developed subcommands.
Releases
Cargo releases coincide with Rust releases. High level release notes are available as part of Rust's release notes. Detailed release notes are available in this repo at CHANGELOG.md.
