 > v9 -> v10:

 >  - add test cases in support/testing
 >  - add documentation about adding cargo-based packages
 >  - bump cargo to 0.24.0
 >  - bump rust to 1.23.0
 >  - bump cargo-bin to 0.24.0
 >  - bump rust-bin to 1.23.0
 >  - clarify origin of some hashes
 >  - reword some comments
 >  - use $(BR2_CMAKE_HOST_DEPENDENCY) wherever needed
 >  - move some options management from *.mk to Config.in

 > v8 -> v9:

 >  - replace giant patch by post-extract hook
 >  - drop rust-cargo virtual package
 >  - explicitly enable SSL support in host-libcurl

 > v7 -> v8:

 >  - replace cargo-bootstrap by cargo-bin
 >  - drop rust-bootstrap and use rust-bin instead
 >  - rust-bin and rust versions are the same
 >  - cargo-bin and cargo versions are the same
 >  - bump cargo to 0.23.0
 >  - bump rust to 1.22.1
 >  - add rust-cargo virtual package

 > v6 -> v7:

 >  - add cargo 0.20.0
 >  - bump rust to 1.19.0
 >  - bump rust-bootstrap to 1.18.0
 >  - bump cargo-bootstrap to 0.19.0
 >  - bump rust-bin to 1.19.0
 >  - fix mips64 target name in rustc

 > v5 -> v6:

 >  - bump rust to 1.18.0
 >  - bump rust-bootstrap to 1.17.0
 >  - bump rust-bin to 1.18.0

 > v4 -> v5:

 >  - add rustc virtual package
 >  - add rust-bin, provider for rustc
 >  - rework rust to be a provider for rustc
 >  - rework some commit messages

 > v3 -> v4:

 >  - bump rust to 1.16.0
 >  - bump rust-bootstrap to 1.15.1
 >  - add cargo-bootstrap
 >  - use built-in target specifications
 >  - drop external Python script to generate target specifications
 >  - enable support for PowerPC
 >  - expose host variant in menuconfig

 > v2 -> v3:

 >  - bump rust to 1.10.0
 >  - rework and bump rust-bootstrap to 1.9.0
 >  - host-rust requires at least GCC 4.7 because of LLVM (suggested by R. Naour)
 >  - rust requires a glibc-based cross-compiler
 >  - rust requires GCC 5.x or above for Aarch64

 > v1 -> v2:

 >  - bump rust to version 1.9.0.
 >  - drop patch for bzip2 support in host-python.
 >  - add package for jemalloc.
 >  - add dependency on host being a x86 machine.
 >  - add dependency on toolchain.
 >  - use dedicated package to provide bootstrapping binary: rust-bootstrap.
 >  - let ./configure find out host/build on its own.
 >  - remove entry from configuration menu.

 > Eric Le Bihan (10):
 >   rustc: new virtual package
 >   rust-bin: new package
 >   cargo-bin: new package
 >   rust: new package
 >   libssh2: add host variant
 >   libhttpparser: add host variant
 >   libcurl: add host variant
 >   cargo: new package
 >   docs/manual: document cargo-based packages
 >   support/testing: add tests for Rust
