166.RE

168.sp
169\fB\-v\fR,
170\fB\-\-verbose\fR
171.RS 4
172Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output which
173includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output.
174May also be specified with the \fBterm.verbose\fR
175\fIconfig value\fR <https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>\&.
176.RE
177.sp
178\fB\-q\fR,

203.RE
204.SS "Manifest Options"
205.sp
206\fB\-\-frozen\fR,
207\fB\-\-locked\fR
208.RS 4
209Either of these flags requires that the \fBCargo.lock\fR file is
210up\-to\-date. If the lock file is missing, or it needs to be updated, Cargo will
211exit with an error. The \fB\-\-frozen\fR flag also prevents Cargo from
212attempting to access the network to determine if it is out\-of\-date.
213.sp
214These may be used in environments where you want to assert that the
215\fBCargo.lock\fR file is up\-to\-date (such as a CI build) or want to avoid network
216access.
217.RE
218.sp
219\fB\-\-offline\fR
220.RS 4
221Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason. Without this
222flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the network and
223the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo will attempt to
224proceed without the network if possible.
225.sp
226Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than online
227mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are downloaded locally, even
228if there might be a newer version as indicated in the local copy of the index.
229See the \fBcargo\-fetch\fR(1) command to download dependencies before going
230offline.
231.sp
232May also be specified with the \fBnet.offline\fR \fIconfig value\fR <https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>\&.
233.RE
234.SS "Common Options"
235.sp
236\fB+\fR\fItoolchain\fR
237.RS 4
238If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to \fBcargo\fR
239begins with \fB+\fR, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such
240as \fB+stable\fR or \fB+nightly\fR).
241See the \fIrustup documentation\fR <https://github.com/rust\-lang/rustup/>
242for more information about how toolchain overrides work.
243.RE
244.sp
245\fB\-h\fR,
246\fB\-\-help\fR
247.RS 4
248Prints help information.
249.RE

251\fB\-Z\fR \fIflag\fR
252.RS 4
253Unstable (nightly\-only) flags to Cargo. Run \fBcargo \-Z help\fR for details.

288will be merged with the global configuration file.
