* gnome3: only maintain single GNOME 3 package set GNOME 3 was split into 3.10 and 3.12 in #2694. Unfortunately, we barely have the resources to update a single version of GNOME. Maintaining multiple versions just does not make sense. Additionally, it makes viewing history using most Git tools bothersome. This commit renames `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3/3.24` to `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3`, removes the config variable for choosing packageset (`environment.gnome3.packageSet`), updates the hint in maintainer script, and removes the `gnome3_24` derivation from `all-packages.nix`. Closes: #29329 * maintainers/scripts/gnome: Use fixed GNOME 3 directory Since we now allow only a single GNOME 3 package set, specifying the working directory is not necessary. This commit sets the directory to `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3`.
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.
