Bas van Dijk 872d8fc5c9 flockit: init at 2012-08-11 
The flockit library and tool exists solely because rsync doesn't have file
locking.

It's not used like a normal library; you don't link against it, and you don't
have to patch your source code to use it. It's inserted between your program and
its libraries by use of LD_PRELOAD.

For example:

  $ env LD_PRELOAD=$(nix-build -A pkgs.flockit)/lib/libflockit.so FLOCKIT_FILE_PREFIX=test rsync SRC DEST

Besides the library a handy executable is provided which can simplify the above to:

  $ $(nix-build -A pkgs.flockit)/bin/flockit test rsync SRC DEST

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-17.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

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