+# Use the MSRV-aware resolver which has been available since Rust 1.84.
+#
+# NOTE: The MSRV-aware resolver will only find compatible versions within the allowed version range.
+# For example, if we specify a dependency version as "0.7.2" or equivalently ">=0.7.2,<0.8.0",
+# and the version 0.7.4 is MSRV-compatible but 0.7.5 is not, then it will resolve to 0.7.4.
+# However, if 0.7.2 is not compatible with our MSRV,
+# the resolver will refuse to go below 0.7.2, and the resolution will fail.
+# For this reason, we still need to keep some dependency versions below the latest versions.
