This flag will set which lints should be set to the [forbid level](lints/levels.html#forbid).

## `-Z`: set unstable options

This flag will allow you to set unstable options of rustc. In order to set multiple options,
the -Z flag can be used multiple times. For example: `rustc -Z verbose -Z time`.
Specifying options with -Z is only available on nightly. To view all available options
run: `rustc -Z help`.

## `--cap-lints`: set the most restrictive lint level

This flag lets you 'cap' lints, for more, [see here](lints/levels.html#capping-lints).
