The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.
Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.
This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.
Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).
This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

This requires some small changes in the stdenv, then working around the
weird choice LLVM made to hardcode @rpath in its install name, and then
lets us remove a ton of annoying workaround hacks in many of our Go
packages. With any luck this will mean less hackery going forward.
* First attempt at making elvish compile on darwin
* Fixed cyclic dependency on darwin
This fixes the "cycle detected in the references of" error when building
on darwin. The fix is based on the solution in issue #18131.
* Use version 0.10 and not 0.10.1, which is not officially released yet
I wrote the patch. Unfortunately it's Nix specific because upstream
rejected it because Ubuntu Trusty's version of realpath doesn't seem to
have the `--relative-to` option. (Upstream used to use realpath before).
But for Nix, our version of realpath is recent enough. Also, upstream
will probably use realpath again anyway in May 2019 when Ubuntu Trusty
becomes unsupported, so this patch should probably be used.
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.

This is a plugin of sorts for your `.zshrc` that can add status
information about the current git repository to your prompt. By
default it uses a python script and is thus easy on the dependencies
and not really worth packaging. But there's also a Haskell
implementation. I set it up sometime back, but then it died when the
libgmp version it was compiled with disappeared in a garbage
collection. So I decided that the Haskell version of zsh-git-prompt
might be worth packaging after all.
The file is an example makefile for developing bash plugins, and
contains stuff like:
````
example: example.o
$(SHOBJ_LD) $(SHOBJ_LDFLAGS) $(SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS) -o $@ example.o $(SHOBJ_LIBS)
````
So no package is really going to depend on that, and it's making the
.dev output keep a reference to the bootstrap tools. Just nuke it.
Because if you don't, the configure script assumes that your getcwd()
function is broken. Which then makes bash use it's own getcwd()
implementation, which doesn't work if the path to the current directory
contains bind mounts in its paths. This shows up as:
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Bad file descriptor
... and fails the aarch64 glibc build with sandboxes enabled.
Sigh.
The rssh package did not have the 'shellPath' attribute, so it could not
be used as the default shell for a nixos user. I fixed this by adding
the attribute.
