The new "cargo fetch" command was merged recently, and it will make it much easier for some distribution packagers to package cargo.

For example, in NixOS, the build is split between two operations: one with access to the internet that has a deterministic output (with a fixed sha), and one in which nothing can be downloaded. The use of "cargo fetch" will allow be to enable packaging of rust application in NixOS.

For that, I need a cargo snapshot that contains "cargo fetch", so that I can build cargo itself, and the rest of the packages.

Would it be possible to release a new snapshot? Alternatively, when can the next snapshot be expected?

Thanks a lot.
