Revert "nixUnstable: rename to nix-unstable"
This commit effectively makes it impossible to upgrade to nixUnstable
with nix-env without mucking about with priorities, as you can't
uninstall the old nix transactionally with the new nix and if you
uninstall the old one first you no longer have nix at your disposal to
install the new one.

This reverts commit 9711aac642.

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.
