Bazel either reuses the `PATH` from the client, or sets a hardcoded one. The former mode in problematic for build hermeticity. But the latter is crippled on NixOS, because the hardcoded value is `/bin:/usr/bin`. So we set the hardcoded value to match what `customBash` provides. This has the effect of aligning the environments for `ctx.actions.run` and `ctx.actions.run_shell`, which were previously distinct (bug).
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-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
