Cargo: predictable dependency management

It's great that Raph's line-breaking code has been reused, but in contrast to Mozilla projects any contribution to it will now require assigning copyright to Google (like Ubuntu or Microsoft's CLA require as well). At least it's a tiny piece, so may not hurt too much in terms of prevented contributions.

Or just forking it, it's released under a open source license.

This wouldn't be the first time Servo has forked a dependency, for example they maintain a fork of glutin (library that handles opening windows) because they want certain features that upstream doesn't.

That can work.

Curious what features servo/glutin has that are exclusive?
