After #31497 starter quoting all values, there arouse the need to left some values evaluated. `--set-default var value` expands to `export var=${var-value}`, where value is not evaluated and literally assigned to var unless it is already set. `--set-eval var value` expands to `export var=$(eval echo value)`, where value is evaluated by `eval`. |

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-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
