nixpkgs

History

Eelco Dolstra 25387a1bed nixos-checkout: Remove This command was useful when NixOS was spread across multiple repositories, but now it's pretty pointless (and obfuscates what happens, i.e. "git clone git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git").		2016-04-20 20:57:02 +02:00

README

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
