 - New: Add `.jj` to the list of known VCS directories. These are excluded by default when copying the tree, but can be included using `--copy-vcs=true`.
 
+- Fixed: `cargo --package` options now include the version number of the targeted package, like `foo@0.1.2`. This avoids cargo failing with an error that the package name is ambiguous in trees whose dependencies include multiple versions of one of the packages being tested.
+
 ## 24.11.2
 
 - Changed: `.gitignore` (and other git ignore files) are only consulted when copying the tree if it is contained within a directory with a `.git` directory.
