+## allow-yanked-deps
+* Original Issue: [#4425](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/4225)
+
+This feature allows your project to depend on yanked crates.
+
+The flag can be useful if you need to build an old project that relies on a
+yanked dependency, and you can't update it. The flag should not be used on new
+or maintained projects: remember that yanked crates are not meant to be used.
