This is the master branch of nixpkgs, initially pulled from commit 8debf2f9a63d54ae4f28994290437ba54c681c7b
The intent of this repo is to be merged onto nixpkgs master. This will also be of help for https://git.suyu.dev/BoomMicrophone/suyu-nix-test
which I will need in order for development (it will also be helpful to know what to do for setting up the environment for the master server. Currently I am focusing on this so I can actually see what is still missing)
This repo will be removed once the PR to the nixpkgs github goes through

As stated by Sylvestre Ledru (@sylvestre) on Nov 22, 2017 at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/31843#issuecomment-346372756 we have permission to use the official firefox branding. Fur purposes of documentation the statement of @sylvestre: > As the person who did part of the work described in the LWN article > and release manager working for Mozilla, I can confirm the statement > that I made in > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815006 > > @garbas shared with me the list of patches applied for the Nix package. > As they are just for portability and tiny modifications, they don't > alter the experience of the product. In parallel, Rok also shared the > build options. They seem good (even if I cannot judge the quality of the > packaging of the underlying dependencies like sqlite, png, etc). > Therefor, as long as you keep the patch queue sane and you don't alter > the experience of Firefox users, you won't have any issues using the > official branding. |

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.
