🙂 Expected behavior

Install ast-grep by building it from source using cargo install --path ./crates/cli

My workaround

My workaround is simple. Build ast-grep with cargo build --release -p ast-grep then copy the binary executable to ~/.cargo/bin manually.

[HerringtonDarkholme]

This is caused by incompatible tree-sitter version release.

You can try this

cargo install ast-grep --locked

Will there be a new release which fixes this?

[HerringtonDarkholme]

nope, this is tree-sitter's issue. Tree-sitter's version does not follow semver.

Instead, use cargo install --locked is recommended.

[jubalh]

It won't be so easy for me. Our package pulls down all dependencies in a vendor tarball because the build system doesn't support having an internet connection. I'll try to research if I can somehow tell the service to use the locked versions.
