Cargo: Could not find `Cargo.toml or any parent directory
Hi,
I'm in the process of installing Parity on Win 10 32 bit machine.
I follow download and follow instructions from here:
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/parity.git && cd parity
cargo run --release
and get error:
could not find Cargo.toml in C:\Program Files\Ethcore\Parity or any parent directory
all the cargo.toml files are in sub directories.
Why is cargo looking in parent directories?
How to fix?

Thanks for the report! Are you sure you're cd'ing into the parity directory? The repository has a top-level Cargo.toml, so in theory this would work

Hey, I got the same error. But I realized that the installation instructions in Pariti's hub isn't accurate. The commands in the section _Build from source_ doesn't clone the repository.
# download Parity code
$ git clone https://github.com/ethcore/parity
$ cd parity
If you go to https://github.com/ethcore/parity you will see the following message:
Moved to https://github.com/paritytech/parity
Then you should run the following command to clone the project:
$ git clone https://github.com/paritytech/parity.git
It worked for me.

Ah that'd do it, thanks for the comment @tregismoreira!
