If you clone this repo and run cargo install --path path/to/rpg-cli, then the binary will be installed to ~/.cargo/bin, and you can skip the step of moving the binary from path/to/rpg-cli/target to somewhere defined in $PATH.

You can also use cargo install --git <URL> to avoid manually cloning this repo.

Thanks, I'll incorporate this to the README.

For me cargo looked by default for the branch master so the correct command was

> cargo install --git https://github.com/facundoolano/rpg-cli --branch main

Thanks @MattesWhite, I didn't realize that --git defaulted to master.

I wondered why cargo did not already search for a main branch if master is not available. Turns out this was issued a number of times already. Following the discussion and PRs this should be solved within the next view releases of Rust.
