      New cargo-semver-checks release 🎉

      Variadic functions have only been stable for a few days, and we immediately have SemVer lint support for them.

      github.com/obi1kenobi/cargo-se

      cargo-semver-checks v0.51.0 release page.

C-ABI variadic functions are new in Rust 1.99, and this is the first time a new language feature has had immediate SemVer linting support in the corresponding `cargo-semver-checks` release.

- Six new lints for variadic functions:
  - `function_no_longer_variadic`
  - `function_now_variadic`
  - `inherent_method_no_longer_variadic`
  - `inherent_method_now_variadic`
  - `trait_method_no_longer_variadic`
  - `trait_method_now_variadic`
- Bugfix in `inherent_method_now_doc_hidden` when multiple `impl` blocks for the same type have the same method name
- Support for symlinks inside git repos used by the `--baseline-rev` flag
  - Thanks to @heaths for the initial PR that helped set this up.
- Lots of security hardening, both in this repository and in dependencies that I also manage

        From the link: "The proposed implementation [for ] will use zlib-rs, which is “heavily tested and used by the Firefox, uv, and Cargo” projects and “faster than zlib and zlib-ng on many platforms”."

        From github.com/trifectatechfoundat : "Performance is generally on-par with zlib-ng."

        I hope any discussion of the performance benefits of zlib-rs bindings includes a head-to-head comparison with zlib-ng for Python. (I see one at pypi.org/project/zlib-ng/ has bindings to zlib-ng.)

          @caleb Yeah... it might be interesting if one day I have a project to work on that actually calls for Rust, but I've not come across a project like that in the things I've built. Yeah, I would agree of course, Rust is better at intense CPU stuff than Go. Having no garbage collector is pretty elite...
