I really wish every rust project had a `rust-toolchain` file checked in[0]. This would cause rustup to automatically select the correct version of rust to use to build the project, thus making it easier to reproduce the build.

Would you like to submit a PR to add a suitable version of that file to wezterm?

FWIW, in my experience so far with wezterm, most people that have run into issues with old rust versions are not running rustup at all, so I feel like something rust/cargo should also have a mechanism to specify an appropriate version.
