+# Cargo: Rust-version aware resolver
+
+🚧 The 2024 Edition has not yet been released and hence this section is still "under construction".
+
+## Summary
+
+- `edition = "2024"` implies `resolver = "3"` in `Cargo.toml` which enables a Rust-version aware dependency resolver.
+
+## Details
+
+Since Rust 1.84.0, Cargo has opt-in support for compatibility with
+[`package.rust-version`] to be considered when selecting dependency versions
+by setting [`resolver.incompatible-rust-version = "fallback"`] in `.cargo/config.toml`.
+
+Starting in Rust 2024, this will be the default.
+That is, writing `edition = "2024"` in `Cargo.toml` will imply `resolver = "3"`
+which will imply [`resolver.incompatible-rust-version = "fallback"`].
+
+The resolver is a global setting for a [workspace], and the setting is ignored in dependencies.
+The setting is only honored for the top-level package of the workspace.
+If you are using a [virtual workspace], you will still need to explicitly set the [`resolver` field]
+in the `[workspace]` definition if you want to opt-in to the new resolver.
+
+For more details on how Rust-version aware dependency resolution works, see [the Cargo book](../..//cargo/reference/resolver.html#rust-version).

+
+## Migration
+
+There are no automated migration tools for updating for the new resolver.
+
+We recommend projects
+[verify against the latest dependencies in CI](../../cargo/guide/continuous-integration.html#verifying-latest-dependencies)
+to catch bugs in dependencies as soon as possible.
