+## warnings
+
+The `-Z warnings` feature enables the `build.warnings` configuration option to control how
+Cargo handles warnings. If the `-Z warnings` unstable flag is not enabled, then
+the `build.warnings` config will be ignored.
+
+This setting currently only applies to rustc warnings. It may apply to additional warnings (such as Cargo lints or Cargo warnings)
+in the future.
+
+### `build.warnings`
+* Type: string
+* Default: `warn`
+* Environment: `CARGO_BUILD_WARNINGS`
+
+Controls how Cargo handles warnings. Allowed values are:
+* `warn`: warnings are emitted as warnings (default).
+* `allow`: warnings are hidden.
+* `deny`: if warnings are emitted, an error will be raised at the end of the operation and the process will exit with a failure exit code.
