Hi, I've set up a Nixpkgs/NixOS branch named "staging", intended to bunch changes that cause rebuilds/redownloads of many packages (such as stdenv changes). The idea is that this branch can be merged into master periodically (e.g. every few weeks).
The main rule for staging is that it should always be mergeable into master. So it should not be used for testing/developing potentially destabilising features (e.g. updating GCC to 4.9, or a new X.org release). These should instead go into their own feature branches, which can be merged into staging when they are deemed sufficiently stable.
