1634+ This feature allows you to specify the path of lockfile Cargo.lock.
1635+ By default, lockfile is written into ` <workspace_root>/Cargo.lock ` .
1636+ However, when sources are stored in read-only directory, most of the cargo commands
1637+ would fail, trying to write a lockfile. The ` --lockfile-path `
1638+ flag makes it easier to work with readonly sources.
1639+ Note, that currently path must end with ` Cargo.lock ` . Meaning, if you want to use
1640+ this feature in multiple projects, lockfiles should be stored in different directories.
1641+ Example:
1642+
1643+ ``` sh
1644+ cargo +nightly metadata --lockfile-path=$LOCKFILES_ROOT /my-project/Cargo.lock -Z unstable-options
1645+ ```
