- 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
- missing cd command
- invoke bundler through nix-shell, so it doesn't need to be on $PATH
Note: running bundix through nix-shell won't work ATM, as the shell sets
SSL_CERT_FILE=/no-cert-file.crt which prevents fetching throug https.
- use version from gemset to simplify updating
- don't break line in meta.description
The wrong usage of unfree-redistributable fixed in
ea242619fb can be explaind by unclear
documention, specifically the section in the nixpkgs manual describing
generic licenses it is written to use attributes from `stdenv.lib.licenses`
but in the list the strings form was documented without quotation marks.
This confuses people because the package builds fine locally but failes
the tests on travis-ci.
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.
It seemed very fine on Hydra before it was cancelled due to glibc rebuild,
in particular the nixpkgs unstable job succeeded except for
bootstrap-tarball tests which should be fine after ee994dfae6.
Therefore, let's avoid another mass rebuild by merging now when we don't
have binaries for master anyway.
* authorization token is optional
* registry url is taken from X-Docker-Endpoints header
* pull.sh correctly resumes partial layer downloads
* detjson.py does not fail on missing keys
This adds changes to the rebar3 expression that patch rebar3 to force it
to be hermetic. Now, by default, rebar3 literally can't download
anything. A 'rebar3-open' expression was added for those folks whe want
the normal rebar3.
This commit adds some very minimial documentation to the Nix
manual. Hopefully, its enough to get someone started and serve as a
first footstep for future documentation writers
