+# This script checks that crates to not carelessly enable features that
+# should stay disabled. It's important to check that since features
+# are used to gate specific functionality which should only be enabled
+# when the feature is explicitly enabled.
+#
+# Invocation scheme:
+# 	./rust-features.sh <CARGO-ROOT-PATH>
+#
+# Example:
+# 	./rust-features.sh path/to/substrate
+#
+# The steps of this script:
+#   1. Check that all required dependencies are installed.
+#   2. Check that all rules are fullfilled for the whole workspace. If not:
+#   4. Check all crates to find the offending ones.
+#   5. Print all offending crates and exit with code 1.
