 Since the ethers-rs project consists of a number of crates, many of which depend on
 each other, releasing new versions to crates.io can involve some complexities.
-When releasing a new version of a crate, follow these steps:

-   the crates.io dependency on the second crate will be replaced with a path

-   This should be done through a form of depth-first tree traversal:
