This was a problem when run inside a sandbox, e.g. via "fetchRepoProject". The error message from repo seems unrelated: fatal: Cannot get https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/clone.bundle fatal: error no host given But the exception is actually thrown due to missing certificates (/etc/ssl/certs). It should be possible to provide another location via environment variables (e.g. SSL_CERT_FILE, REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE or CURL_CA_BUNDLE) but apparently that doesn't actually work for some reason (would have to study our Python packaging). Now "fetchRepoProject" works without the "--no-clone-bundle" option.
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.
