Everyone loves hating on C. Can somebody point me at clear instructions for how to use Rust *without* Cargo and its 100s of deps? A *huge* virtue of C is not requiring an enormous ecosystem of 3rd party code to do anything, and not forcing the use of a specific build system.

Part of my disinterest in Cargo is a desire to have tight control over dependencies and where stuff comes from and zero desire to have a build system ever talk to anything over a network. I know "grab prebuilt packages from public repos" is the in thing, but it is not for me.

Cargo.lock and local registries address those two points. (BTW, Cargo downloads source, not binaries at the moment.) But it sounds like you’re dead-set against Cargo, so you can invoke rustc directly from Make. Cargo can print its rustc command lines if you use verbose.
