+If you are trying to migrate from the previous edition ({prev_edition}), the
+process requires following these steps:
+
+1. Start with `edition = \"{prev_edition}\"` in `Cargo.toml`

+3. Modify `Cargo.toml` to set `edition = \"{this_edition}\"`
+4. Run `cargo build` or `cargo test` to verify the fixes worked
