Eelco Dolstra 0aa7520670 Revert "nixos: remove rsync from base install and add explicit path in nixos-install"
This reverts commit 582313bafe.

Removing rsync is actually pointless because nixos-install depends on
it. So if it's part of the system closure, we may as well provide it
to users.

Probably with the next Nix release we can drop the use of rsync and
use "nix copy" instead.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
