uv-bin-install

crates/uv-bin-install/ provides binary install support for the uv self update command and standalone uv binaries.

Purpose

When users run uv self update, uv downloads a new uv binary and replaces itself. This crate handles:

  • Discovering the right release artifact for the current platform/arch.
  • Verifying signatures or hashes.
  • Atomically swapping the running binary on Unix and Windows.
