- make line wrapping more consistent (overlong lines)
- don't stress the manual is *only* for contributors,
as it does contain some user-guide parts, including the intro itself
- since March our Hydra publishes binaries immediately,
not waiting for channel update
What I missed when I began using Nix and NixOS was a clear overview of
how packages, channels, Hydra, the master branch and updates to channels
relate to each other.
I've noticed I am not the only one, given the amount of times these
questions pop up.
For now I propose to include this in the Nixpkgs manual, since this
seems to be the best fit. However, I think it would be good to include
this in either a new manual, i.e., a user manual, or an 'official'
tutorial.
