Git repository dependancy howto

[jhiver]

Hello, bit of a n00b question I'm afraid, but I'm hitting a blocker trying to import some code that's on github. I've created two sample github projects to show case the error, please help me understand what I'm doing wrong...

https://github.com/jhiver/rustsamplelib - has a sample function i want to use somewhere else

https://github.com/jhiver/rustsampleuselib - the program that should be importing the code in the other repo.

If I clone & cd into that repo, then type cargo build, I get the following error, which I don't understand since I can git clone the repository just fine... any thoughts?

Thanks!

You have branch="master" in Cargo.toml, but the branch is called main -- GitHub recently changed the default name of the main branch for new repositories.

Oh boy sorry I didn't realize that. It was confusing because even when I didn't specify any branch it was looking for "master" as well and I specifically added it afterwards... lol...

Thanks!
