v0.7.1
Pre-release

Taylor Thomas
This is the 0.7.1 patch release for Bindle. It contains 2 small cosmetic bug fixes. The main purpose of this release is to build new binaries based on Rust 1.58.1 to address the recent Rust CVE. There are no other changes to the underlying library. If you are using Bindle as a crate, this issue does not affect you directly so long as you are using Rust 1.58.1 or greater. If you are using the compiled bindle client and bindle server, it is highly recommended to use this new version.
Installing
You can download the prebuilt binaries for the Bindle CLI client and the Bindle server from the following links:
Once downloaded, you can follow the installation and getting started instructions
Using as a crate
Besides the pre-compiled binaries, we also publish a fully featured crate (that the binaries also use). You can find docs here.
Caveats
Please note that this is NOT production-ready software, but it is in a usable/consumable state. Because this is pre-1.0 software, we make no guarantees about spec, Rust API, or CLI compatibility. However, we will do our best to call out every breaking change in future release notes. Once we hit 1.0, backwards compatibility guarantees will be in effect.
What's next?
Our next anticipated version is 0.8.0 (although we will cut a 0.7.2 if necessary). Our main focus for 0.8 will be finishing signing and verification on the Client and addressing any fixes and feature needs from other projects that will be consuming bindle. Please give things a try and feel free to open PRs or issues with your feedback. In fact, your feedback is crucial as we continue to solidify the spec and features desired in Bindle!
