I accidentally got the number of commits wrong in the previous prerelease version string. This is now fixed. Generally, this would result in functions like builtins.compareVersions to give incorrect results, so 'nix-env -u' doesn't work. But I'm justifying it here, because: most people use it as a library, so the hash change is all that matters. Plus, I only authored this a week or so ago in upstream, so this change is fast enough that I think people will be fine with it and can work around, especially since it's unreleased in any stable channel. This also bumps the library to the newest version, which contains some bugfixes, and now installs the manpages into the $man output for us. Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <aseipp@pobox.com>
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-19.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-19.03
For pull requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
