Silly nixpkgs mirror, totally harmless :3

This addresses #12794 so that we now have only a single tarball where we base our build on instead of splitting the source into different outputs first and then reference the outputs. The reason I did this in the first place is that we previously built the sandbox as a different derivation and unpacking the whole source tree just for building the sandbox was a bit too much. As we now have namespaces sandbox built in by default we no longer have that derivation anymore. It still might come up however if we want to build NaCl as a separate derivation (see #8560), but splitting the source code into things only NaCl might require is already too much work and doesn't weight out the benefits. Another issue with the source splitup is that Hydra now has an output limit for non-fixed-output derivations which we're already hitting. Tested the build against the stable channel and it went well, but I haven't tested running the browser. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org> |

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-15.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
