## 项目历史与用法

cargo-update provides Cargo subcommands for checking and applying updates to executables installed with `cargo install`.

### 项目历史

The official manual says cargo-update was built from frustration with periodically checking cargo-installed executables for updates. The README presents `cargo install-update` and `cargo install-update-config` as the two user-facing commands.

### 采用历史

GitHub records the repository as created in October 2016, and crates.io records the first cargo-update release the same month. The input package facts list Alpine, Homebrew, Nix, and Arch packages.

### 使用方式

The manual documents updating all installed packages with `cargo install-update -a`, updating selected packages, listing without updating, using cargo-binstall when appropriate, and configuring per-package build options with `cargo install-update-config`.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

cargo-update fills a long-standing package-manager gap for Cargo-installed CLI tools: it gives users a repeatable way to discover and apply crate executable updates while preserving per-package install options.

### 时间线

- 2016: GitHub repository created and first crates.io release recorded.
- 2026: crates.io records max_version 20.0.2.

### Related projects

- The manual documents optional cargo-binstall integration and relies on Cargo registry metadata and Cargo install state.
