The Python package has two packages for requests, `requests` corresponding to version 1.2.3, and `requests2` corresponding to version 2.13.0. Version 1.2.3 is almost 4 years old, and by now all software should have transitioned. This commit aliases `requests` to `requests2`. Packages that stop to function should be upgraded. In the rare case that that is not possible, version 1.2.3 is still available as `requests_1` but I plan to drop that before the release of 17.09.
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.
