Thanks for the notification. I rebased my Git repositories after I wrote the last mail and apparently forgot to push my local branch. It is working, but support through options in configuration.nix is very basic. I'll gladly maintain a more sophisticated Nix expression but I don't know how (and if) this is possible.
I'll try for tomorrow to push my local branches to GitHub. 2012/6/7 Kirill Elagin <[email protected]>: > Hi! > > So, what is the fate of your work?
