Changesets for Rust: How cargo-rail Plans Releases from the Workspace Graph

Short summary

cargo-rail v0.15 introduces a changesets-style release workflow for Rust Cargo workspaces, letting developers record reviewed release intent as markdown files alongside code changes. Unlike JS changesets, it attributes commits to crates through the resolved workspace dependency graph rather than path globs, eliminating misattribution of cross-cutting commits. The tool folds change files, conventional commits, cargo-semver-checks signals, and dependency updates into a dependency-ordered, dry-runnable release plan.

• •cargo-rail v0.15 adds changesets-style release intent files reviewed in PRs
