Austin Seipp ec70f64ecd nixos: tarsnap - separate archive cachedirs
Tarsnap locks the cachedir during backup, meaning if you specify
multiple backups with a shared cache that might overlap (for example,
one backup may take an hour), secondary backups will fail. This isn't
very nice behavior for the obvious reasons.

This splits the cache dirs for each archive appropriately. Note that
this will require a rebuild of your archive caches (although if you were
only using one archive for your whole system, you can just move the
directory).

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.
