When used by cargo, `libgit2` crashes with a Segmentation Fault on Darwin. This crash is somehow connected to the `Security.framework` native to Darwin, and while being easy to reproduce, is very hard to track down. This commit introduces a patch to `libgit2` which disables the troublesome transport and instead depends on `libcurl`. The patch also adds support for `SSL_CERT_FILE` to `libgit2`. Upstream tracking issue is https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/3885.
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-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
