In `args@{ a ? 1 }: /* ... */` the value `a` won't be a part of `args` unless it's specified when calling the function, the default value will be ignored in this case. My personal point of view is that this behavior is a matter of taste, at least I was pretty sure that unmatched arguments will be a part of `args@` while debugging some Nix code last week. I decided to add a warning to the docs which hopefully reduces the confusion of further Nix developers who thought the same about `args@`. |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
