Bjørn Forsman bf2dfb9d99 eclipse: remove old to-do comment about "mirror://eclipse/" 
The comment is from 2011, before we started using officially mirrored
URLs[1] like

  http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?r=1&nf=1&file=THE_FILE

I think using upstream mirrored URLs is better than mirror://eclipse:

  - upstream mirror list is always up to date
  - the closest / fastest mirror will be selected automatically

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-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.
