The documentation[0] says this: Cargo fetches the git repository at that location and traverses the file tree to find Cargo.toml file for the requested crate anywhere inside the git repository. For example, regex-lite and regex-syntax are members of rust-lang/regex repo and can be referred to by the repo’s root URL (https://github.com/rust-lang/regex.git) regardless of where in the file tree they reside. If you want to test, you should be able to push it to a repository somewhere, even if that's a local path, and specify like so to test: ---- [dependencies] cgit-rs = { version = "0.1.0", git = "file:///path/to/git.git", branch = "cgit-rs" } ---- and see if it finds it.
