Action Summary

The cargo-workspace-inheritance-check GitHub Action identifies and resolves dependency inheritance issues in Cargo workspaces. It detects when member crates specify explicit dependency versions instead of inheriting them from the workspace, flags version mismatches, and provides suggestions for promoting commonly used dependencies to the workspace level. This tool automates the detection and correction of such issues, helping Rust developers maintain consistency, prevent version drift, and streamline dependency management across their projects.

Release notes

[1.1.2] - 2026-03-18

Fixed

  • --fix now strips default-features from member entries when converting to { workspace = true }, since it must be set at the workspace level to have any effect
  • --fix now checks target-specific dependency sections (e.g. [target.'cfg(windows)'.dependencies]) when determining whether to set default-features = false on promoted workspace dependencies
