cargo yank

Remove a pushed crate from the index. This should only be used when you accidentally release a significantly broken crate. Note: this does not remove any data. The crate is still present after a yank - this just prevents new projects from using it. More information: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-yank.html.

• Yank the specified version of a crate:

cargo yank {{crate}}@{{version}}

• Undo a yank (i.e. allow downloading it again):

cargo yank --undo {{crate}}@{{version}}

• Use the specified registry (registry names can be defined in the config - the default is https://crates.io):

cargo yank --registry {{name}} {{crate}}@{{version}}
