It might happen that clippy is not available for a certain nightly release.
In this case you can try to conditionally install clippy from the git repo.

Note: `deny` produces errors instead of warnings.

Note: To use the new `clippy::lint_name` syntax, a recent compiler has to be used
currently. If you want to compile your code with the stable toolchain you can use a `cfg_attr` to
activate the `tool_lints` feature:
```rust
#![cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", allow(clippy::lint_name))]
```

For this to work you have to use Clippy on the nightly toolchain: `cargo +nightly clippy`. If you
want to use Clippy with the stable toolchain, you can stick to the old unscoped method to
enable/disable Clippy lints until `tool_lints` are stable:
```rust
#![cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", allow(clippy_lint))]
```

If you do not want to include your lint levels in your code, you can globally enable/disable lints by passing extra flags to clippy during the run: `cargo clippy -- -A lint_name` will run clippy with `lint_name` disabled and `cargo clippy -- -W lint_name` will run it with that enabled. On newer compilers you may need to use `clippy::lint_name` instead.

This also works with lint groups. For example you can run Clippy with warnings for all lints enabled: `cargo clippy -- -W clippy::pedantic`
