2020-05-23Manpages: Do not refer to nixpkgs-channelsJoachim Breitner
Unless I am misinformed, using the `nixpkgs` repository directly is now preferred?

2020-05-16Remove -j option from simple-build-testingJörg Thalheim
By default Nix/NixOS already set a reasonable default `max-jobs = auto` so we don't need to mention it in this tutorial. The option is still documented in other parts of the documentation if users ever stumble over this. Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/2531

2019-09-11docs: Use the explicit ref for fetchGit with a tagJulien Tanguy
With the merge of #2582, the syntax "tags/1.9" for refs does not work anymore. However, the new syntax "refs/tags/1.9" seems to support annotated tags, such as "refs/tags/2.0". Closes #2385.

2019-05-21doc: clarify that optional attrs in a function argument will be ignored ↵Maximilian Bosch
unless specified In `args@{ a ? 1 }: /* ... */` the value `a` won't be a part of `args` unless it's specified when calling the function, the default value will be ignored in this case. My personal point of view is that this behavior is a matter of taste, at least I was pretty sure that unmatched arguments will be a part of `args@` while debugging some Nix code last week. I decided to add a warning to the docs which hopefully reduces the confusion of further Nix developers who thought the same about `args@`.
2019-05-03Add builtins.hashFileDaniel Schaefer
For text files it is possible to do it like so: `builtins.hashString "sha256" (builtins.readFile /tmp/a)` but that doesn't work for binary files. With builtins.hashFile any kind of file can be conveniently hashed.
2019-03-24Add isPath primopzimbatm
this is added for completeness' sake since all the other possible `builtins.typeOf` results have a corresponding `builtins.is<Type>`

2018-10-04Docs: update fixed output hashesBenjamin Hipple
`fetchurl` will now throw if given an `md5`, and the hashes have generally been upgraded to avoid it and use `sha256` as a default. This updates the documentation examples in the manual accordingly.
