  # This updates the `Cargo.lock` file.

  # -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  #
  # Generally Rust libraries do not have lock files. This grows from the idea that you always want
  # to run CI with the most recent (semver compatible) dependency versions, since those are the 
  # versions new users will get.
  #
  # However this approach worsens the contribution experience, since PR's CI can fail because of
  # a minor dependency update (e.g. because of an MSRV change or an accidental breaking change).
  #
  # To prevent this and make contribution experience a little bit better we include the lock file
  # in the repository. To combat the problem of running CI against old versions, we have this
  # dependabot job, which updates the `Cargo.lock` (and `Cargo.lock` only), every once in a while.
