Before, an unstable version of melpaBuild has to be in MELPA format,
which has some disadvantages:
- existing update scripts cannot be reused[1]
- it causes inconsistence.
This patch fixes that by allowing an unstable version to be in Nix
format.
We heuristically detect if it is an unstable version in Nix format.
If so, we convert it to MELPA format.
This does not bring evaluation performance overhead. Here is my
benchmark result using hyperfine-1.18.0 and nix-2.18.1.
Without this patch:
Benchmark 1: NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1 nix eval --include nixpkgs=$PWD --file . emacs.pkgs.melpaPackages --apply 'pkgSet: map (drv: drv.drvPath) (builtins.filter (p: p.type or null == "derivation") (builtins.attrValues pkgSet))' --no-eval-cache >/dev/null
Time (mean ± σ): 9.126 s ± 0.048 s [User: 6.531 s, System: 0.997 s]
Range (min … max): 9.056 s … 9.186 s 10 runs
