Cargo Features

[dependencies]
hexstring = { version = "0.1.4", default-features = false, features = ["serde"] }
default = serde

The serde feature is set by default whenever hexstring is added without default-features = false somewhere in the dependency tree.

Features from optional dependencies

In crates that don't use the dep: syntax, optional dependencies automatically become Cargo features. These features may have been created by mistake, and this functionality may be removed in the future.
