\fBcargo login\fR [\fIoptions\fR] [\fItoken\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This command will save the API token to disk so that commands that require
authentication, such as \fBcargo\-publish\fR(1), will be automatically
authenticated. The token is saved in \fB$CARGO_HOME/credentials.toml\fR\&. \fBCARGO_HOME\fR
defaults to \fB\&.cargo\fR in your home directory.
.sp
If the \fItoken\fR argument is not specified, it will be read from stdin.
.sp
The API token for crates.io may be retrieved from <https://crates.io/me>\&.

Take care to keep the token secret, it should not be shared with anyone else.
