"✨PSA: upgrade to `cargo-edit` 0.13 now ⏰

it no longer does a full git clone of the crates.io registry

now it uses the sparse registry, which means it only fetches what it needs to, saving disk space and precious time.

👉$ cargo install --locked --force cargo-edit"

  "The image shows a terminal screenshot with commands and outputs related to upgrading Rust packages using `cargo`. Key points include:
  
  - **Top section**: 
    - A full `git` checkout of the Cargo registry is taking up significant space (881MB), prompting the user to clean it up with the `rm -rf ~/.cargo/registry/src/` command.
  
  - **Middle section**:
    - After clearing the registry, the user runs `cargo upgrade -p rubicon`, using version `v1.81.0` and the sparse registry. The process checks dependencies and upgrades package versions (upgrading `rubicon` to version `3.4.7`), taking approximately 2.278 seconds.
  
  - **Bottom section**: 
    - After using the sparse registry, only 38MB is utilized in the `.cargo/registry/src/` directory, highlighting the efficiency of fetching a few subdirectories over HTTP instead of using `git`.
  
  Annotations on the image include:
  - Red text explaining that the full `git` checkout took minutes and was removed.
  - Yellow text pointing out that `cargo-upgrade 0.13` took just 2.3 seconds to upgrade using the sparse registry.
  - Green text noting the smaller space consumption after switching to fetching over HTTP."
