+//! This integration adds a new event *source*, which allows you to create events directly
+//! from an [`anyhow::Error`] struct.  As it is only an event source it only needs to be
+//! enabled using the `anyhow` cargo feature, it does not need to be enabled in the call to
+//! [`sentry::init`](../../fn.init.html).
+//!
+//! This integration does not need to be installed, instead it provides an extra function to
+//! capture [`anyhow::Error`], optionally exposing it as a method on the
+//! [`sentry::Hub`](../../struct.Hub.html) using the [`AnyhowHubExt`] trait.
+//!
+//! Like a plain [`std::error::Error`] being captured, [`anyhow::Error`] is captured with a
+//! chain of all error sources, if present.  See
+//! [`sentry::capture_error`](../../fn.capture_error.html) for details of this.
