3944240476 doc(neovim): remove the mention of plug for neovim
This was removed to simplify configuration. One could create a function that converts the plug format to vim native package format (only plugin system supported for neovim)  and upstream it to nixpkgs if that's an issue

aad7f1d6b3 doc/../rust.section.md: prominently mention buildRustXX names
This was a source of massive confusion for me when I first learned my way around nixpkgs' rust machinery.  I seek to save others from that confusion.

* `buildRustPackage` should have been named `buildRustPackageUsingCargo`

* `buildRustCrate` should have been named `buildRustPackageUsingNix`

It is, unfortunately, too late to fix this.  Let's do the next best thing and make the names `buildRustPackage` and `buildRustCrate` very prominent in the documentation, so readers see immediately that they need to learn the following jargon:

* `buildRustPackage` means "build this Rust crate by calling `cargo` in one (or two) monolithic derivations"

* `buildRustCrate` means "build this Rust crate by calling `rustc` in one derivation for each crate"

dockerTools.buildImage: make VM memSize configurable
Fixes #186752. This adds buildVMMemorySize (defaults to 512 MiB) to
buildImage, which is passed to vm.runInLinuxVM. This is needed for
larger base images, which may otherwise cause container build failures
due to OOM in the VM.

2270b66d75 pythonPackagesExtensions: override all Python package sets at once
Python package sets can be overridden by overriding an interpreter
and passing in `packageOverrides = self: super: {...};`. This is fine
in case you need a single interpreter, however, it does not help you
when you want to override all sets.

With this change it is possible to override all sets at once by
appending a list of "extensions" to `pythonPackagesExtensions`.

From reading the implementation you might wonder why a list is used, and
not
`lib.composeExtensions`? The reason is the latter requires knowledge of
the library function. This approach should be easier for most users
as it is similar to how we append to lists of e.g. inputs or patches
when overriding a derivation.

nixpkgs/doc: remove unused unfree.xml
This section was broken out into its own file in efb55d2a42 but
apparently never actually got included anywhere.

Since then a more detailed section on using unfree packages has been
introduced.

Copied the introduction and removed the rest of the file.

0f45ce6e77 setup-hooks/strip.sh: add strip{All,Debug}ListTarget variables
This change mimics existing strip{All,Debug}List variables to
allow special stripping directories just for Target.

The primary use case in mind is gcc where package has to install
both host and target ELFs. They have to be stripped by their own
strip tools accordingly.

buildDotnetModule: allow passing derivations to nugetDeps
Sometimes I want to pass a different implementation of `mkNugetDeps`.
For example in private repos, it can be handy to use `__noChroot = true`
and bypass the deps.nix generation altogether. Or some Nuget packages
ship with ELF binaries that need to be patched, and that's best done as
soon as possible.

399732b449 buildPerlPackage: don't mess with pname and phase out use of name
Currently `buildPerlPackage` prefixes the Perl version to the package's
`pname`, which results in `nix run` not being able to work for any
packages build with it out of the box. This commit corrects that and
phases out the ability to set `name` directly, as well as refactors the
code to not require `cleanedAttrs`.

    error: undefined variable 'shadowSetup' at docker-image.nix:20:7

Instead use the full reference to `shadowSetup` in the example so it will work

81bc106e08 meta.sourceProvenance documentation: clarify it is unaffected by changes to meta.license
This commit clarifies that the meaning of the `meta.sourceProvenance`
field is independent of and unaffected by the value of the
`meta.license` field.  This is based on the intent of the RFC author
as expressed here:

  https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161098#issuecomment-1081270201

This clarification is added for two reasons:

1. If in the future there should be some disagreement about what
   `sourceProvenance` to assign to a package, this may help resolve
   the disagreement.  Any interpretation of `sourceProvenance` which
   is influenced by the `meta.license` is clearly an incorrect
   interpretation.

2. If it should turn out that it is impossible to disentangle
   `sourceProvenance` from `meta.license`, this would indicate the
   need for changes to the `sourceProvenance` scheme.  That change
   might be as simple as replacing the sentence added by this commit
   with some other sentence explaining how the two fields influence
   each other.

This commit implements the recommendation made in the paragraph of
this comments which begins with "Please say this explicitly...":

1d63f89caa cudaPackages: overhaul of how we package cuda packages
There are many different versions of the `cudatoolkit` and related
cuda packages, and it can be tricky to ensure they remain compatible.

- `cudaPackages` is now a package set with `cudatoolkit`, `cudnn`, `cutensor`, `nccl`, as well as `cudatoolkit` split into smaller packages ("redist");
- expressions should now use `cudaPackages` as parameter instead of the individual cuda packages;
- `makeScope` is now used, so it is possible to use `.overrideScope'` to set e.g. a different `cudnn` version;
- `release-cuda.nix` is introduced to easily evaluate cuda packages using hydra.

c9d66a7fff cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar cases
This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in
greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases
(although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit
artificial).

It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency
types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were
already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really
explained.

Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where
it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.

fetchpatch: add relative
Allows restricting patches to a specific subdirectory, à la
`git diff --relative=subdir`.

This cannot be done (cleanly) currently because the `includes` logic
happens *after* `stripLen` is applied, so we can't match on `subdir/*`.

This change adds a `relative` argument that makes this possible by
filtering files before doing any processing, and setting `stripLen` and
`extraPrefix` accordingly.

vimUtils.makeCustomizable: rewrite to include more things
The current wrapper only includes vim, gvim and the man pages
(optionally). This rewrite distinguishes two scenarios, which I expect
cover the majority of use cases:

- standalone mode, when `name != "vim"`, means the user already has a
  vim in scope and only wants to add a customized version with a
  different name. In this case we only include wrappers for `/bin/*vim`.
- non-standalone mode, when `name == "vim"`, means the user expects a
  normal vim package that uses the specified configuration. In this case
  we include everything in the original derivation, with wrappers for
  all the executables that accept a vimrc.

96698efe0c lib/modules: Finally remove deprecated types.optionSet
types.optionSet has been deprecated for almost 10 years now
(0e333688ce)! A removal
was already attempted in 2019
(27982b408e), but it was promptly
reinstantiated since some third-party uses were discovered
(f531ce75e4).

It's finally time to remove it for good :)

94c0e08808 submitting-changes.chapter.md: explain that purple arrows are manual
The documentation for this diagram explains that the blue arrows are
automatic processes which happen every six hours.  There is no
explanation about how the purple arrows happen or how often.

As a new contributor to nixpkgs, I incorrectly assumed that the purple
arrows were also automatic processes (they aren't), which left me sort
of confused about what the whole scheme was accomplishing.

Recently I went through the github history to see how often these
events happen, and realized that the purple arrows are (a) triggered
manually by a nixpkgs project member and (b) happen much, much, much
less frequently than every six hours.

Now everything makes a lot more sense.  I suggest the wording change
in this commit, or something similar, to save future contributors the
same confusion that I experienced.

8b5a7940b0 go: Bunch of fixes when using excludedPackages and other bits
Few things going on in this commit:

Do not print "Building subPakage $pkg" message if actually going to skip the
package. This was confusing to me when I was trying to figure out how to set
excludedPackages and seeing the "Building subpackage $pkg" messages for
packages I wanted to skip. Turns out this messages was being printed before
checking if we actually wanted to build the package and not necessarily that my
excludedPackages was wrong.

Make go-packages look a little bit more like go-modules, by adding testdata to
the default list of excluded packages.

This commit also does some setup outside the buildGoDir function so that we
avoid checking `excludedPackages` for every package and cut down the number
of grep calls by half since we always want at least one grep for the default
excludedPackages, might as well just add to the patterns being checked.

Finally, adds documentation for usage of excludedPackages and subPackages. I
had to read the implementation to figure out how to correctly use these
function arguments since there was no documentation and different uses in the
code base. So this commit documents usage of the arguments.
