Description
the code at: https://github.com/tursodatabase/libsql/blob/main/libsql-ffi/build.rs#L42
should be (based on the build platform) something like:
Command::new("xcopy")
.arg("/S")
.arg(format!("{dir}\\{bindgen_rs_path}"))
.arg(&out_path)
.output()
.unwrap();
I hacked this into the files installed by cargo add libsql and it allowed it to build and run successfully.
