We should be able to deploy a NixOS 18.03 system with the current nixops stable release. Some options were renamed, so instead of `mkRenamedOptionModule` we introduce them as read-only interal options that won't be rendered in the manual. Only the options that are needed to make nixops evaluations succeed were added. This commit should probably be reverted after or before the 18.09 release, depending on the nixops 1.6 release. The user will not get the warning that these have been renamed but this change is mentioned in the release notes. Fixes #34253.
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-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
