Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the [Nix ](https://nixos.org/nix/ ) package manager. It is periodically build and tested by the [hydra ](http://hydra.nixos.org/ ) build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add [nixpkgs-channels ](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git ) as a remote `git remote add nixpkgs-channels https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git` . It is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of the `nixos-unstable` branch of `nixpkgs-channels` . For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
