Save baseline does not work in 0.5

[aadrijnberg]

When following the documentation to save a baseline with a name, it returns an error. See https://github.com/aadrijnberg/criterion-benchmark for the repo that tries to use it, but fails with an error:

$ cargo bench -- --save-baseline initial
Finished `bench` profile [optimized] target(s) in 0.10s
 Running unittests src/lib.rs (target/release/deps/criterion_benchmark-c2076c60856bf728)
error: Unrecognized option: 'save-baseline'
error: bench failed, to rerun pass `--lib`

Did I use the wrong command line parameters to store the baseline under a certain name, or is it not working in v0.5

According to the FAQ, it should work with the explicit --bench my_benchmark argument:

cargo bench --bench my_benchmark -- --verbose

Note that my_benchmark here corresponds to the name of your benchmark in your Cargo.toml file.

Another option is to disable benchmarks for your lib or app crate. For example, for library crates, you could add this to your Cargo.toml file:

[lib]
bench = false

It is not that I cannot run the benchmarks, it is just that I cannot use the "save-baseline" feature. And I was wondering if my command line was wrong, or that this feature is not working as documented...
