As I said before, I want to keep a narrow focus on Nixpkgs. Now that I am back
at undergrad, this focus should be even narrower: I will keep my eyes on Emacs,
and nothing else.
Cargo 1.84.0 seems to have changed the output format of cargo vendor
again, once again invalidating fetchCargoTarball FOD hashes. It's
time to fix this once and for all, switching across the board to
fetchCargoVendor, which is not dependent on cargo vendor's output
format.
It should be possible to reproduce this diff. To do so, get the list
of files changed by this commit, e.g. with git diff --name-only, then
run the following two commands, each with that list of files as their
standard input:
xargs sed -i 's/^\(. *\)\(cargoHash\)\b/\1useFetchCargoVendor = true;\n\1cargoHash/'
cut -d / -f 4 | xargs -n 1 nix-update --version=skip
This will take a long time. It might be possible to parallelize it
using xargs' -P option. I haven't tested it.
After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

We are migrating packages that meet below requirements:
1. using `callPackage`
2. called path is a directory
3. overriding set is empty (`{ }`)
4. not containing path expressions other than relative path (to
makenixpkgs-vet happy)
5. not referenced by nix files outside of the directory, other
than`pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix`
6. not referencing nix files outside of the directory
7. not referencing `default.nix` (since it's changed to `package.nix`)
8. `outPath` doesn't change after migration
The tool is here: https://github.com/Aleksanaa/by-name-migrate.
In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.
