Hi! 👋

I'm currently trying to build this project for Arch Linux, since I need it for updating ssr (FWIW, a feature level release would probably have been more appropriate for integrating a new library).
Unfortunately, I am missing the license files for this project. I definitely need the MIT license file as it usually contains data which makes it unique.

Sorry for my late response!

I'm not sure if adding the license text is legally necessary, since both the README and the Cargo.toml already contain the SPDX codes.

The Rust Book says (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch14-02-publishing-to-crates-io.html#adding-metadata-to-a-new-crate):

"If you want to use a license that doesn’t appear in the SPDX, you need to place the text of that license in a file, include the file in your project, and then use license-file to specify the name of that file instead of using the license key."

But if you really need it, I have created #42, which copies the files from the Rust project.

I definitely need the MIT license file as it usually contains data which makes it unique.

The one from #42 doesn't make it unique, it's identical to the one from the Rust project.
There have been some discussions about the unique part here: rust-lang/rust#43498
