~/.cargo

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ du -sh ~/.cargo

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ ls ~/.cargo/
registry

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ ls ~/.cargo/registry/
cache  CACHEDIR.TAG  index  src

~/cargo

the example is the cargo itself, the tool coming with the rust toolchain, since we hack on it.

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ du -sh target/
2.3G    target/

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ ls target/
CACHEDIR.TAG  debug

[nixos@nixos:~/cargo]$ ls target/debug/
