Log:
Adding a possibility to add more paths to chroots used by nix-daemons. The
use-case is building the latest version from repository with very large
checkouts. That way you do not get extra copy in store every time you rebuild,
and you can implement a saner version checking than checksumming all the data
While I don't object to the option in principle, I think this use case
is misguided. If you want to make a copy of something in /var/dist
without having it copied to the store, just do
fetchurl {
url = file:///var/dist/...;
sha256 = "...";
}
For quick and dirty hacking, you can also set this derivation attribute:
__noChroot = true;
