(A cargo cleaner) > See `CHANGELOG` for info on [v0.1.2](https://git.red-green.com/david/rustpan/src/v0.1.2) ## Installation Simple `cargo install --path .` ## How it works It's a simple rust crate that goes thru the current working directory finding crates (via `target` directory) and calls `cargo clean` to reduce the number of files stored on the file system. As of [v0.1.1](https://git.red-green.com/david/rustpan/src/v0.1.1) it also supports nested crates...
