+### `--crate-version`: control the crate version
+
+Using this flag looks like this:
+
+```bash
+$ rustdoc src/lib.rs -Z unstable-options --crate-version 1.3.37
+```

+When `rustdoc` receives this flag, it will print an extra "Version (version)" into the sidebar of
+the crate root's docs. You can use this flag to differentiate between different versions of your
+library's documentation.
