The Cargo package has no git commit information
Before publishing a package, make sure all packaged files are committed to the repository, and there are no "dirty" files. Push this commit to crate's public repository.
To protect against supply chain attacks similar to CVE-2024-3094, lib.rs will soon start flagging non-reproducible packages without public source code as suspicious. Currently only git repositories are supported (but may be hosted anywhere, not just GitHub). If you'd like a different SCM supported, please file a feature request.
