Nix Packages collection & NixOS
a402c8f295
This, apparently, is not an official release (it's tagged, but the tarball is not available on the official site), but this repo is the official repo mentioned on the official site. This fixes a bunch of very annoying bugs present in 0.99.4, e.g. ``` $ FBReader filename ``` does not crash anymore. Yay! |

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 https://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-18.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
