Yurii Rashkovskii e1aecec4cd build-support/rust: make use of abandoned cargoUpdateHook Previously, cargoUpdateHook was meaningful as it was used in [`cargo-fetch-deps`](`19d3cf81d3/pkgs/build-support/rust/fetch-cargo-deps (L71)`). However, this entire file was removed in `5f8cf0048e`. As far as I can tell, nothing in the code is using it, but it is still being passed around: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/search?q=cargoUpdateHook&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93 There are, however, legitimate use cases for it. For example, in some software, some dependencies are not locked in Cargo.toml and this causes Cargo to try fetching another version of them. This doesn't work well with vendoring crates. This hook allows to inject patching or whatever necessary workarounds in the crate vendoring process. I suppose that's what it was for in there in the first place. This patch restores this hook and makes it usable again.		2018-02-23 11:17:03 +07:00

README.md

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.
