Cargo Watch 8.4.0
Release notes
Cargo Watch is a tool to watch your Cargo-based project and run commands when files change. It focuses on the Rust development experience and aims to be flexible enough to suit most without becoming complicated to use. Install or upgrade it today with cargo binstall cargo-watch, or cargo install cargo-watch if you don't have Binstall yet.
In this release:
- Fix a critical bug where signals sent to commands (including the ones cargo watch would send!) would not be handled due to Rust 1.66 changing its behaviour. (#249, #247)
Other changes:
- Allow
--use-shell=nonewhen using a trailing command (not with-xor-s). Note that this requires the trailing command not be quoted in full. - Add
--no-process-groupto disable using a process group for the command. - Fix malformed output on Windows. (#244)
Future changes:
