cargo-edit is a Rust CLI tool extending Cargo with subcommands to modify Cargo.toml, such as upgrading dependency versions. Several of its commands (add, rm) have since been integrated into Cargo itself.
Use cases
- upgrade dependencies in Cargo.toml from the command line
- manage rust crate dependencies via cli
- set dependency versions in Cargo.toml
- bulk upgrade rust project dependencies
When to choose
- you need cargo upgrade to bump Cargo.toml versions beyond cargo update
- you're on an older Cargo lacking built-in add/rm
When to avoid
- you only need cargo add or cargo rm on modern Cargo (built in since 1.62/1.66)
