Description

Summary

build-info can collect build-information of your Rust crate.

It might be an alternative to vergen and cargo-license etc. to get git, credits and build options.

The potential problem is that it may lead to an unstable build and needs further investigation.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Evaluate the build info crate as a replacement for vergen and cargo license by examining its features, stability, and integration with the Databend build system. Test building with build info and compare output for git, credits, and build options.
