The documentation for this diagram explains that the blue arrows are automatic processes which happen every six hours. There is no explanation about how the purple arrows happen or how often. As a new contributor to nixpkgs, I incorrectly assumed that the purple arrows were also automatic processes (they aren't), which left me sort of confused about what the whole scheme was accomplishing. Recently I went through the github history to see how often these events happen, and realized that the purple arrows are (a) triggered manually by a nixpkgs project member and (b) happen much, much, much less frequently than every six hours. Now everything makes a lot more sense. I suggest the wording change in this commit, or something similar, to save future contributors the same confusion that I experienced. |
