+synopsis: Fix nested flake input `follows`
+prs: 6621
+cls: 994
+---
+
+Previously nested-input overrides were ignored; that is, the following did not
+override anything, in spite of the `nix3-flake` manual documenting it working:
+
+```
+{
+  inputs = {
+    foo.url = "github:bar/foo";
+    foo.inputs.bar.inputs.nixpkgs = "nixpkgs";
+  };
+}
+```
+
+This is useful to avoid the 1000 instances of nixpkgs problem without having
+each flake in the dependency tree to expose all of its transitive dependencies
+for modification.
