0.2.2 (older version) Thoroughness: High Understanding: Medium
by kaiserkarel on 2022-01-17
This review is from Crev, a distributed system for code reviews. To add your review, set up cargo-crev.
The current version of if-watch is 3.2.1.
Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball, except Cargo.lock,
are in the crate's repository. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.
Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.
To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open if-watch. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of if-watch v3.2.1 or view the source online.
No backdoors, but potential for malicious code as it interacts with sockets and network.
