Announcing Rust 1.32.0
Stabilization of the dbg! macro and const fn endian conversion primitives significantly improves standard library utility and developer workflow.
Library stabilizations
We talked above about the dbg! macro, which is a big library addition.
Beyond that, 19 functions were made const fns, and all integral numeric
primitives now provide conversion functions to and from byte-arrays with
specified endianness. These six functions are named to_<endian>_bytes and
from_<endian>_bytes, where <endian> is one of:
ne- native endiannessle- little endianbe- big endian

Cargo features
Cargo gained cargo c as an alias for cargo check, and now allows
usernames in registry URLs.
