Checks a package to catch common mistakes and improve your Rust code.

Usage:
    cargo clippy [options] [--] [...]

Common options:
    --no-deps                Run Clippy only on the given crate, without linting the dependencies
    --fix                    Automatically apply lint suggestions. This flag implies `--no-deps` and `--all-targets`
    -h, --help               Print this message
    -V, --version            Print version info and exit
    --explain LINT           Print the documentation for a given lint

For the other options see `cargo check --help`.

To allow or deny a lint from the command line you can use `cargo clippy --`
with:

    -W --warn OPT       Set lint warnings
    -A --allow OPT      Set lint allowed
    -D --deny OPT       Set lint denied
    -F --forbid OPT     Set lint forbidden

You can use tool lints to allow or deny lints from your code, e.g.:

    #[allow(clippy::needless_lifetimes)]
