I had to change ${go-modules} to $goModules to allow overrideAttrs to work;
However, env vars cannot contain -, so i had to change go-modules too.
This in turn broke nix-update because it uses the go-modules attr.
Instead of making nix-update more complicated, make go-modules naming match cargoDeps.
`fd --type f | xargs sd '\bgo-modules\b' 'goModules'`
and revert change to pkgs/applications/misc/dstask/default.nix
and pkgs/servers/http/dave/default.nix
and pkgs/os-specific/darwin/plistwatch/default.nix
release note added
also updates nixdoc to 2.3.0. the nixdoc update is not a separate commit
because that would leave the manual build broken for one commit,
potentially breaking bisects and rebases.
This is actually relatively complicated to achieve, since it involves
overriding GHC on e.g. aarch64-darwin, so the FAQ entry seems warranted.
It's also a good exercise to me, since it demonstrates some problems
with the overriding infrastructure, i.e. that it has a tendency to
inherit the pkgs fixpoint from prev. An example of this problem is
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/235960, but it has different
manifestations as well. Awareness of this will also help writing the
other sections on overriding.
How complicated it is, seems to be further incentive to go ahead with
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/239548 as well.
nixos-render-docs does not support this, and since the examples are
small there isn't that much value in callouts here. change them to
simple MD code blocks and lists instead.
skipping heading levels (eg from # to ###, or starting at ###) is legal
in pandoc, but not in nixos-render-docs. pandoc acts as though section
levels *were* consecutive, nixos-render-docs prefers to tell people not
to do that kind of thing because it can make documents more fragile.
Updates all interpreter references with 3.10/3.11, which are the
current version, that we recurse into for their package set.
Update all code examples with an explicit `format` and expand lists
with multiple items as we do in the python package set. Also set
`pythonImportsCheck` where tests are disabled.
* buildGoModule: don't inherit postBuild hook when building go-modules
This is a slight revert of 5ce647b8bf
(#212800).
Inheriting these hooks in the `.go-modules` derivation can be confusing:
One doesn't expect them to run when generating the fixed output modules
derivation, but only on the main derivation. A `postBuild` hook that
adds some files to $out will cause a very hard to debug issue[1].
This commit adds support for a dedicated `modPostBuild` hook that will
be used only by the derivation building `.go-modules`. Additionally,
`go.section.md` now explains these attributes behavior better.

* update.py: introduce subparsers for plugin updaters
This is preliminary work to help create more powerful plugin updaters.
Namely I would like to be able to "just add" plugins without refreshing
the older ones (helpful when github temporarily removes a user from
github due to automated bot detection).
Also concerning the lua updater, we pin some of the dependencies, and I
would like to be able to unpin the package without editing the csv
(coming in later PRs).
* doc/updaters: update command to update editor plugins
including vim, kakoune and lua packages

without stable ids on headings we cannot generate stable links to these
headings. nrd complains about this, but the current docbook workflow
does not.
a few generated ids remain, mostly in examples and footnotes. most of
the examples are generated by nixdoc (which has since gained MD export
functions, and the MD export does generate IDs).
This allows packages that require several dotnet versions to build (like
BeatSaberModManager) to properly depend on the dotnet-sdk specific deps.
This in turns avoids having to regenerate the deps of those packages
after each dotnet-sdk update.
This also changes nuget-to-nix to accept a file with a list of
exclusions instead of a folder.
The headings for the Rust section are structured incorrectly in two ways:
1. The section "Compiling non-Rust packages that include Rust code" is totally specific to `buildRustPackage`. It should be a child of the "Compiling Rust applications with Cargo" section.
1. The section "Setting up `nix-shell`" is totally specific to `buildRustCrate`. It should be a child of the "Compiling Rust crates using Nix instead of Cargo" section.

The previous approach of trying to make both the `override` mechanism from
`mkDerivation` and the `overrideScope'` mechanism from `newScope` work together
resulted in hard to understand code, and there was a bug where once overridden
packages would lose the changes on next override with `packageOverrides`.
It's not ideal still, because Lisps created by `mkDerivation` will lose their
`pkgs` after using `override`.
The previous approach of manually repeating a complex pattern inside Common Lisp
implementation package declarations was fragile and hard to change. After
reading python and lua modules code in Nixpkgs, I was able to come up with
something better.
The function `wrapLisp` doesn't need to be inside package declarations so all
the code for wrapping Lisps can be in `all-packages.nix`.
This works by wrapping the `override` function created from `mkDerivation` to
accept a new argument `packageOverrides`.
One problem with this is that `override.__functionArgs` disappears. But one can
look at the source code of a package to discover what can be overridden.
