Add `pre-commit` checks
The big ones here are `trim-trailing-whitespace` and `end-of-file-fixer` (which makes sure that every file ends with exactly one newline character). Change-Id: Idca73b640883188f068f9903e013cf0d82aa1123

# Release 0.6 (2004-11-14)
- Rewrite of the normalisation engine.
-
+
- Multiple builds can now be performed in parallel (option `-j`).
-
+
- Distributed builds. Nix can now call a shell script to forward
builds to Nix installations on remote machines, which may or may
not be of the same platform type.
-
+
- Option `--fallback` allows recovery from broken substitutes.
-
+
- Option `--keep-going` causes building of other (unaffected)
derivations to continue if one failed.

- Manual updates.
- `nix-env` changes:
-
+
- Derivations for other platforms are filtered out (which can be
overridden using `--system-filter`).
-
+
- `--install` by default now uninstall previous derivations with
the same name.
-
+
- `--upgrade` allows upgrading to a specific version.
-
+
- New operation `--delete-generations` to remove profile
generations (necessary for effective garbage collection).
-
+
- Nicer output (sorted, columnised).
- More sensible verbosity levels all around (builder output is now
shown always, unless `-Q` is given).
- Nix expression language changes:
-
+
- New language construct: `with
E1;
E2` brings all attributes defined in the attribute set *E1* in
scope in *E2*.
-
+
- Added a `map` function.
-
+
- Various new operators (e.g., string concatenation).
- Expression evaluation is much faster.
