Paul Colomiets 84c0098117 Unprivileged overlayfs mounts kernel patch from ubuntu
This allows to create overlayfs mounts by unprivileged containers (i.e.
in user and mount namespace). It's super-useful for containers.

The patch is trivial as I understand from the patch description it's
does not have security implications (on top of what user namespaces
already have). And it's enabled in ubuntu long time ago. Here is a proof:

Build Status Issue Stats Issue Stats

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-14.12 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-14.12

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
