There is an article on HN about curl getting a portion of it ported over to Rust [1] [2] . I learned a couple things
- The new libcurl backend will be https://github.com/hyperium/hyper
- Determine number of owners/committers https://github.com/rust-secure-code/cargo-supply-chain
- Copy all the dependencies into a subfolder https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-vendor.html

[2] https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2020/10/09/rust-in-curl-with-hyper/
git clone https://github.com/hyperium/hyper
cd hyper
cargo install cargo-vendor
# for counting lines of source
cargo install tokei
cargo vendor --offline ../hyper-vend
# ...
Vendoring winapi-util v0.1.5 (/Users/seg_lol/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/winapi-util-0.1.5) to ../hyper-vend/winapi-util
Vendoring winapi-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu v0.4.0 (/Users/seg_lol/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/winapi-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu-0.4.0) to ../hyper-vend/winapi-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
Vendoring ws2_32-sys v0.2.1 (/Users/seg_lol/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/ws2_32-sys-0.2.1) to ../hyper-vend/ws2_32-sys
To use vendored sources, add this to your .cargo/config for this project:
[source.crates-io]
replace-with = "vendored-sources"
[source.vendored-sources]
directory = "../hyper-vend"
Hyper is like 23kloc, but the dependencies sum to over 700kloc.
