Crates in this directory don‘t fall under Google’s patching policy. Googlers who wish to contribute to the upstream projects here must seek approval by filing a bug under the OSRB component.
Crates moved to this directory should not be modified from their upstream contents, except to add a single #![allow(warnings)] to the crate's lib.rs to prevent repeated warnings when operated on by Cargo. If you need to make code changes, move the crate to //third_party/rust_crates/forks/<crate_name> and add a README.fuchsia file explaining the changes and this upstream patching policy restriction.
To update a crate in this directory:
[patch.crates-io] section of //third_party/rust_crates/Cargo.toml.fx update-rustc-third-party.//third_party/rust_crates/ask2patch/<crate_name> except the OWNERS file.//third_party/rust_crates/vendor/<crate_name>/* to //third_party/rust_crates/ask2patch/<crate_name>/* and delete the directory in vendor/.//third_party/rust_crates/Cargo.toml.
