-# Practical contributing advice
-
-To contribute effectively and efficiently, you need to be aware of how the contributing process generally works.
-This section aims to document the process as we live it in Nixpkgs to set expectations right and give practical tips on how to work with it.
-
-## I opened a PR, how do I get it merged?
-[i-opened-a-pr-how-do-i-get-it-merged]:#i-opened-a-pr-how-do-i-get-it-merged
-
-In order for your PR to be merged, someone with merge permissions on the repository ("committer") needs to review and merge it.
-Because the group of people with merge permissions is mostly a collection of independent unpaid volunteers who do this in their own free time, this can take some time to happen.
-It is entirely normal for your PR to sit around without any feedback for days, weeks or sometimes even months.
-We strive to avoid the latter cases of course but the reality of it is that this does happen quite frequently.
-Even when you get feedback, follow-up feedback may take similarly long.
-Don't be intimidated by this and kindly ask for feedback again every so often.
-If your change is good it will eventually be merged at some point.
-
-There are some things you can do to help speed up the process of your PR being merged though.
-In order to speed the process up, you need to know what needs to happen before a committer will actually hit the merge button.
-This section intends to give a little overview and insight of what happens after you create your PR.
-
-### The committer's perspective
-
-PRs have varying quality and even the best people make mistakes.
-It is the role of the committer team to assess whether any PR's changes are good changes or not.
-In order for any PR to be merged, at least one committer needs to be convinced of its quality enough to merge it.
-
-Committers typically assess three aspects of your PR:
-
-1. Whether the change's intention is necessary and desirable
-2. Whether the code quality of your changes is good
-3. Whether the artefacts produced by the code are good
-
-If you want your PR to get merged quickly and smoothly, it is in your best interest to help convince committers in these three aspects.
-
-### How to help committers assess your PR
-
-For the committer to judge your intention, it's best to explain why you've made your change.
-This does not apply to trivial changes like version updates because the intention is obvious (though linking the changelog is appreciated).
-For any more nuanced changed or even major version upgrades, it helps if you explain the background behind your change a bit.
-E.g. if you're adding a package, explain what it is and why it should be in Nixpkgs.
-This goes hand in hand with [Writing good commit messages](#writing-good-commit-messages).
-
-For the code quality assessment, you cannot do anything yourself as only the committer can do this and they already have your code to look at.
-In order to minimise the need for back and forth though, do take a look over your code changes yourself and try to put yourself into the shoes of someone who didn't just write that code.
-Would you immediately know what the code does or why it is needed by glancing at it?
-If not, reviewers will notice this and will ask you to clarify the code by refactoring it and/or adding a few explanations in code comments.
-Doing this preemptively can save you and the committer a lot of time.
-To better convey the "story" of your change, consider dividing your change into multiple atomic commits.
-There is a balance to strike however: over-fragmentation causes friction.
-
-The code artefacts are the hardest for committers to assess because PRs touch all sorts of components: applications, libraries, NixOS modules, editor plugins and many many other things.
-Any individual committer can only really assess components that they themselves know how to use however and yet they must still be convinced somehow.
-There isn't a good generic solution to this but there are some ways easing the committer's job here:
-
-- Provide smoke tests that the committer can run without much research or setup.
-
-  Committers usually don't have the time or interest to learn how your component works and how they could test its functionality.
-  If you can provide a quick guide on how to use the component in a meaningful way or a ready-made command that demonstrates that the component works as expected, the committer can easily convince themselves that your change is good.
-  If it can be automated, you could even turn this smoke test into an automated NixOS test which reviewers could simply run via Nix.
-- Invite other users of the component to try it out and report their findings.
-
-  If a committer sees the testimonials of other users trying your change and it works as expected for them, that too can convince the committer of your PR's quality.
-- Describe what you have done to test your PR.
-
-  If you can convince the committer that you have done sufficient quality assurance on your changes and they trust your report, this too can convince them of your PR's quality, albeit not as strongly as the methods above.
-- Become a maintainer of the component.
-
-  This isn't something you can do on your first few PRs touching a component but listed maintainers generally receive more trust when it comes to changes to their maintained components and committers may opt to merge changes without deeper review when they see they're done by their respective maintainer.
-
-Even if you adhere to all of these recommendations, it is still quite possible for your PR to be forgotten or abandoned by any given committer.
-Please remain mindful of the fact that they are doing this on their own volition and unpaid in their free time and therefore [owe you nothing](https://mikemcquaid.com/open-source-maintainers-owe-you-nothing/).
-Causing a stink in such a situation is a surefire way to get any other potential committer to not want to look at your PR either.
-Ask them nicely whether they still intend to review your PR and find yourself another committer to look at your PR if not.
-
-### How can I get a committer to look at my PR?
-
-- Improve skimmability: use a simple descriptive PR title (details go in commit titles) outlining _what_ is done and _why_.
-- Improve discoverability: apply all relevant labels, tick all relevant PR body checkboxes.
-- Wait. Reviewers frequently browse open PRs and may happen to run across yours and take a look.
-- Get non-committers to review/approve. Many committers filter open PRs for low-hanging fruit that are already been reviewed.
-- [@-mention](https://github.blog/news-insights/mention-somebody-they-re-notified/) someone and ask them nicely
-- Post in one of the channels made for this purpose if there has been no activity for at least one week

-
-### CI failed or got stuck on my PR, what do I do?
-
-First ensure that the failure is actually related to your change.
-Sometimes, the CI system simply has a hiccup or the check was broken by someone else before you made your changes.
-Read through the error message; it's usually quite easy to tell whether it is caused by anything you did by checking whether it mentions the component you touched anywhere.
-If it is indeed caused by your change, obviously try to fix it.
-Don't be afraid of asking for advice if you're uncertain how to do that, others have likely fixed such issues dozens of times and can help you out.
-Your PR is unlikely to be merged if it has a known issue and it is the purpose of CI to alert you aswell as reviewers to these issues.
-
-ofBorg builds can often get stuck, particularly in PRs targeting `staging` and in builders for the Darwin platform. Reviewers will know how to handle them or when to ignore them.
-Don't worry about it.
-If there is a build failure however and it happened due to a package related to your change, you need to investigate it of course.
-If ofBorg reveals the build to be broken on some platform and you don't have access to that platform, you should set your package's `meta.broken` accordingly.
-
-When in any doubt, please ask via a comment in your PR or through one of the help channels.
-
-## I received a review on my PR, how do I get it over the finish line?
-
-In the review process, the committer will have left some sort of feedback on your PR.
-They may have immediately approved of your PR or even merged it but the more likely case is that they want you to change a few things or that they require further input.
-
-A reviewer may have taken a look at the code and it looked good to them ("Diff LGTM") but they still need to be convinced of the artefact's quality.
-They might also be waiting on input from other users of the component or its listed maintainer on whether the intention of your PR makes sense for the component.
-If you know of people who could help clarify any of this, please bring the PR to their attention.
-The current state of the PR is frequently not clearly communicated, so please don't hesitate to ask about it if it's unclear to you.
-
-It's also possible for the reviewer to not be convinced that your PR is necessary or that the method you've chose to achieve your intention is the right one.
-
-Please explain your intentions and reasoning to the committer in such a case.
-There may be constraints you had to work with which they're not aware of or qualities of your approach that they didn't immediately notice.
-(If these weren't clear to the reviewer, that's a good sign you should explain them in your commit message or code comments!)
-
-There are some further pitfalls and realities which this section intends to make you aware of.
-
-### Aim to reduce cycles
-
-Please be prepared for it to take a while before the reviewer gets back to you after you respond.
-This is simply the reality of community projects at the scale of Nixpkgs.
-As such, make sure to respond to _all_ feedback, either by applying suggested changes or argue in favor of something else or no change.
-It wastes everyone time waiting for a couple of days just for the reviewer to remind you to address something they asked for.
-
-### A reviewer requested a bunch of insubstantial changes on my PR
-
-The people involved in Nixpkgs care about code quality because, once in Nixpkgs, it needs to be maintained for many years to come.
-It is therefore likely that other people will ask you to do some things in another way or adhere to some standard.
-Sometimes however, they also care a bit too much and may ask you to adhere to a personal preference of theirs.
-It's not always easy to tell which is which and whether the requests are critically important to merging the PR.
-Sometimes another reviewer may also come along with totally different opinions on some points too.
-
-It is convention to mark review comments that are not critical to the PR as nitpicks but this is not always followed.
-As the PR author, you should still take a look at these as they will often reveal best practices and unwritten rules that usually have good reasons behind them and you may want to incorporate them into your modus operandi.
-
-Please keep in mind that reviewers almost always mean well here.
-Their intent is not to denounce your code, they want your code to be as good as it can be.
-Through their experience, they may also take notice of a seemingly insignificant issues that have caused significant burden before.
-
-Sometimes however, they can also get a bit carried away and become too perfectionistic.
-If you feel some of the requests are unreasonable, out of scope, or merely a matter of personal preference, try to nicely remind the reviewers that you may not intend this code to be 100% perfect or that you have different taste in some regards and press them on whether they think that these requests are *critical* to the PR's success.
-
-While we do have a set of [official standards for the Nix community](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/), we don't have standards for everything and there are often multiple valid ways to achieve the same goal.
-Unless there are standards forbidding the patterns used in your code or there are serious technical, maintainability or readability issues with your code, you can insist to keep the code the way you made it and disregard the requests.
-Please communicate this clearly though; a simple "I prefer it this way and see no major issue with it" can save you a lot of arguing.
-
-If you are unsure about some change requests, please ask reviewers *why* they requested them.
-This will usually reveal how important they deem it to be and will help educate you about standards, best practices, unwritten rules aswell as preferences people have and why.
-
-Some committers may have stronger opinions on some things and therefore (understandably) may not want to merge your PR if you don't follow their requests.
-It is totally fine to get yourself a second or third opinion in such a case.
-
-### Committers work on a push-basis
-
-It's possible for you to get a review but nothing happens afterwards, even if you reply to review comments.
-A committer not following up on your PR does not necessarily mean they're disinterested or unresponsive, they may have simply forgotten to follow up on it or had some other circumstances preventing them from doing so.
-
-Committers typically handle many other PRs besides yours and it is not realistic for them to keep up with all of them to a degree where they could reasonably remember to follow up on all PRs that they had intended following up upon.
-If someone left an approving review on your PR and didn't merge a few days later, the most likely case is that they simply forgot.
-
-Please see it as your responsibility to actively remind reviewers of your open PRs.
-
-The easiest way to do so is to cause them a Github notification.
-Github notifies people involved in the PR whenever you add a comment to your PR, push your PR or re-request their review.
-Doing any of that will get you people's attention again.
-Everyone deserves proper attention, and yes that includes you!
-However please be mindful that committers can sadly not always give everyone the attention they deserve.
-
-It may very well be the case that you have to do this every time you need the committer to follow up upon your PR.
-Again, this is a community project so please be mindful of people's circumstances here; be nice when requesting reviews again.
-
-It may also be the case that the committer has lost interest or isn't familiar enough with the component you're touching to be comfortable merging your PR.
-They will likely not immediately state that fact however, so please ask for clarification and don't hesitate to find yourself another committer to take a look at your PR.
-
-### Nothing helped
-
-If you followed these guidelines but still got no results or if you feel that you have been wronged in some way, please explicitly reach out to the greater community via its communication channels.
-
-The [NixOS Discourse](https://discourse.nixos.org/) is a great place to do this as it has historically been the asynchronous medium with the greatest concentration of committers and other people who are significantly involved in Nixpkgs.
-There is a dedicated discourse thread [PRs in distress](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/prs-in-distress/3604) where you can link your PR if everything else fails.
-The [Nixpkgs / NixOS contributions Matrix channel](https://matrix.to/#/#dev:nixos.org) is the best synchronous channel with the same qualities.
-
-Please reserve these for cases where you've made a serious effort in trying to get the attention of multiple active committers and provided realistic means for them to assess your PR's quality though.
-As mentioned previously, it is unfortunately perfectly normal for a PR to sit around for weeks on end due to the realities of this being a community project.
-Please don't blow up situations where progress is happening but is merely not going fast enough for your tastes.
-Honking in a traffic jam will not make you go any faster.

-# CI support files
-
-This directory contains files to support CI, such as [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/master/.github/workflows) and [Ofborg](https://github.com/nixos/ofborg).
-This is in contrast with [`maintainers/scripts`](../maintainers/scripts) which is for human use instead.
-
-## Pinned Nixpkgs
-
-CI may need certain packages from Nixpkgs.
-In order to ensure that the needed packages are generally available without building,
-[`pinned-nixpkgs.json`](./pinned-nixpkgs.json) contains a pinned Nixpkgs version tested by Hydra.
-
-Run [`update-pinned-nixpkgs.sh`](./update-pinned-nixpkgs.sh) to update it.
-
-## `ci/nixpkgs-vet.sh BASE_BRANCH [REPOSITORY]`
-
-Runs the [`nixpkgs-vet` tool](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-vet) on the HEAD commit, closely matching what CI does. This can't do exactly the same as CI, because CI needs to rely on GitHub's server-side Git history to compute the mergeability of PRs before the check can be started.
-In turn, when contributors are running this tool locally, we don't want to have to push commits to test them, and we can also rely on the local Git history to do the mergeability check.
-
-Arguments:
-
-- `BASE_BRANCH`: The base branch to use, e.g. master or release-24.05
-- `REPOSITORY`: The repository from which to fetch the base branch. Defaults to <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git>.
-
-## `ci/nixpkgs-vet`
-
-This directory contains scripts and files used and related to [`nixpkgs-vet`](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-vet/), which the CI uses to implement `pkgs/by-name` checks, along with many other Nixpkgs architecture rules.
-See also the [CI GitHub Action](../.github/workflows/nixpkgs-vet.yml).
-
-## `ci/nixpkgs-vet/update-pinned-tool.sh`
-
-Updates the pinned [`nixpkgs-vet` tool](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-vet) in [`ci/nixpkgs-vet/pinned-version.txt`](./nixpkgs-vet/pinned-version.txt) to the latest [release](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-vet/releases).
-
-Each release contains a pre-built `x86_64-linux` version of the tool which is used by CI.
-
-This script currently needs to be called manually when the CI tooling needs to be updated.
-
-Why not just build the tooling right from the PRs Nixpkgs version?
-
-- Because it allows CI to check all PRs, even if they would break the CI tooling.
-- Because it makes the CI check very fast, since no Nix builds need to be done, even for mass rebuilds.
-- Because it improves security, since we don't have to build potentially untrusted code from PRs.
-  The tool only needs a very minimal Nix evaluation at runtime, which can work with [readonly-mode](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/opt-common.html#opt-readonly-mode) and [restrict-eval](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/conf-file.html#conf-restrict-eval).
-
-## `get-merge-commit.sh GITHUB_REPO PR_NUMBER`
-
-Check whether a PR is mergeable and return the test merge commit as
-[computed by GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/guides/using-the-rest-api-to-interact-with-your-git-database?apiVersion=2022-11-28#checking-mergeability-of-pull-requests).
-
-Arguments:
-- `GITHUB_REPO`: The repository of the PR, e.g. `NixOS/nixpkgs`
-- `PR_NUMBER`: The PR number, e.g. `1234`
-
-Exit codes:
-- 0: The PR can be merged, the test merge commit hash is returned on stdout
-- 1: The PR cannot be merged because it's not open anymore
-- 2: The PR cannot be merged because it has a merge conflict
-- 3: The merge commit isn't being computed, GitHub is likely having internal issues, unknown if the PR is mergeable
-
-### Usage
-
-This script can be used in GitHub Actions workflows as follows:
-
-```yaml
-on: pull_request_target
-
-# We need a token to query the API, but it doesn't need any special permissions
-permissions: {}
-
-jobs:
-  build:
-    name: Build
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    steps:
-      # Important: Because of `pull_request_target`, this doesn't check out the PR,
-      # but rather the base branch of the PR, which is needed so we don't run untrusted code
-      - uses: actions/checkout@<VERSION>
-        with:
-          path: base
-          sparse-checkout: ci
-      - name: Resolving the merge commit
-        env:
-          GH_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
-        run: |
-          if mergedSha=$(base/ci/get-merge-commit.sh ${{ github.repository }} ${{ github.event.number }}); then
-            echo "Checking the merge commit $mergedSha"
-            echo "mergedSha=$mergedSha" >> "$GITHUB_ENV"
-          else
-            # Skipping so that no notifications are sent
-            echo "Skipping the rest..."
-          fi
-          rm -rf base
-      - uses: actions/checkout@<VERSION>
-        # Add this to _all_ subsequent steps to skip them
-        if: env.mergedSha
-        with:

-{ dockerTools, hello }:
-dockerTools.buildLayeredImage {

-```
+  Description of what `coolFunction` does.
+  `coolFunction` expects a single argument which should be an attribute set, with the following possible attributes:

+  `name`
 
-When showing inputs/outputs of any [REPL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read%E2%80%93eval%E2%80%93print_loop), such as a shell or the Nix REPL, use a format as you'd see in the REPL, while trying to visually separate inputs from outputs.
-This means that for a shell, you should use a format like the following:
-```shell
-$ nix-build -A hello '<nixpkgs>' \
-  --option require-sigs false \
-  --option trusted-substituters file:///tmp/hello-cache \
-  --option substituters file:///tmp/hello-cache
-/nix/store/zhl06z4lrfrkw5rp0hnjjfrgsclzvxpm-hello-2.12.1
-```
-Note how the input is preceded by `$` on the first line and indented on subsequent lines, and how the output is provided as you'd see on the shell.
+  : The name of the resulting image.
 
-For the Nix REPL, you should use a format like the following:
-```shell
-nix-repl> builtins.attrNames { a = 1; b = 2; }
-[ "a" "b" ]
-```
-Note how the input is preceded by `nix-repl>` and the output is provided as you'd see on the Nix REPL.
+  `tag` _optional_
 
-### Headings for inputs, outputs and examples
+  : Tag of the generated image.
 
-When documenting functions or anything that has inputs/outputs and example usage, use nested headings to clearly separate inputs, outputs, and examples.
-Keep examples as the last nested heading, and link to the examples wherever applicable in the documentation.
+    _Default value:_ the output path's hash.
 
-The purpose of this convention is to provide a familiar structure for navigating the manual, so any reader can expect to find content related to inputs in an "inputs" heading, examples in an "examples" heading, and so on.
-An example:
-```
-## buildImage

-Some explanation about the function here.
-Describe a particular scenario, and point to [](#ex-dockerTools-buildImage), which is an example demonstrating it.

-
-### Function arguments
-
-Use [definition lists](#definition-lists) to document function arguments, and the attributes of such arguments as well as their [types](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values).
-For example:
-
-```markdown
-# pkgs.coolFunction {#pkgs.coolFunction}
-
-`pkgs.coolFunction` *`name`* *`config`*
-
-Description of what `callPackage` does.
-
-
-## Inputs {#pkgs-coolFunction-inputs}
-
-If something's special about `coolFunction`'s general argument handling, you can say so here.
-Otherwise, just describe the single argument or start the arguments' definition list without introduction.
-
-*`name`* (String)
-
-: The name of the resulting image.
-
-*`config`* (Attribute set)
-
-: Introduce the parameter. Maybe you have a test to make sure `{ }` is a sensible default; then you can say: these attributes are optional; `{ }` is a valid argument.
-
-  `outputHash` (String; _optional_)
-
-  : A brief explanation including when and when not to pass this attribute.
-
-  : _Default:_ the output path's hash.
-```
-
-Checklist:
-- Start with a synopsis, to show the order of positional arguments.
-- Metavariables are in emphasized code spans: ``` *`arg1`* ```. Metavariables are placeholders where users may write arbitrary expressions. This includes positional arguments.
-- Attribute names are regular code spans: ``` `attr1` ```. These identifiers can _not_ be picked freely by users, so they are _not_ metavariables.
-- _optional_ attributes have a _`Default:`_ if it's easily described as a value.
-- _optional_ attributes have a _`Default behavior:`_ if it's not easily described using a value.
-- Nix types aren't in code spans, because they are not code
-- Nix types are capitalized, to distinguish them from the camelCase Module System types, which _are_ code and behave like functions.

 # Fetchers {#chap-pkgs-fetchers}
 
 Building software with Nix often requires downloading source code and other files from the internet.
-To this end, we use functions that we call _fetchers_, which obtain remote sources via various protocols and services.
-
-Nix provides built-in fetchers such as [`builtins.fetchTarball`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-fetchTarball).
-Nixpkgs provides its own fetchers, which work differently:
+To this end, Nixpkgs provides *fetchers*: functions to obtain remote sources via various protocols and services.
 
+Nixpkgs fetchers differ from built-in fetchers such as [`builtins.fetchTarball`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-fetchTarball):
 - A built-in fetcher will download and cache files at evaluation time and produce a [store path](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/glossary#gloss-store-path).
-  A Nixpkgs fetcher will create a ([fixed-output](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/glossary#gloss-fixed-output-derivation)) [derivation](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/glossary#gloss-derivation), and files are downloaded at build time.

 - Built-in fetchers will invalidate their cache after [`tarball-ttl`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/conf-file#conf-tarball-ttl) expires, and will require network activity to check if the cache entry is up to date.
-  Nixpkgs fetchers only re-download if the specified hash changes or the store object is not available.
+  Nixpkgs fetchers only re-download if the specified hash changes or the store object is not otherwise available.
 - Built-in fetchers do not use [substituters](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/conf-file#conf-substituters).
   Derivations produced by Nixpkgs fetchers will use any configured binary cache transparently.
 
-This significantly reduces the time needed to evaluate Nixpkgs, and allows [Hydra](https://nixos.org/hydra) to retain and re-distribute sources used by Nixpkgs in the [public binary cache](https://cache.nixos.org).
-For these reasons, Nix's built-in fetchers are not allowed in Nixpkgs.

+The following table shows an overview of the differences:
 
 | Fetchers | Download | Output | Cache | Re-download when |
 |-|-|-|-|-|

-:::{.tip}
-`pkgs.fetchFrom*` helpers retrieve _snapshots_ of version-controlled sources, as opposed to the entire version history, which is more efficient.
-`pkgs.fetchgit` by default also has the same behaviour, but can be changed through specific attributes given to it.
-:::
-
 ## Caveats {#chap-pkgs-fetchers-caveats}
 
-Because Nixpkgs fetchers are fixed-output derivations, an [output hash](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/advanced-attributes#adv-attr-outputHash) has to be specified, usually indirectly through a `hash` attribute.
-This hash refers to the derivation output, which can be different from the remote source itself!
-
-This has the following implications that you should be aware of:
-
-- Use Nix (or Nix-aware) tooling to produce the output hash.
-
-- When changing any fetcher parameters, always update the output hash.
-  Use one of the methods from [](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-updating-source-hashes).
-  Otherwise, existing store objects that match the output hash will be re-used rather than fetching new content.
-
-  :::{.note}
-  A similar problem arises while testing changes to a fetcher's implementation.
-  If the output of the derivation already exists in the Nix store, test failures can go undetected.
-  The [`invalidateFetcherByDrvHash`](#tester-invalidateFetcherByDrvHash) function helps prevent reusing cached derivations.
-  :::
-
-## Updating source hashes {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-updating-source-hashes}
-
-There are several ways to obtain the hash corresponding to a remote source.
-Unless you understand how the fetcher you're using calculates the hash from the downloaded contents, you should use [the fake hash method](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-updating-source-hashes-fakehash-method).
-
-1. []{#sec-pkgs-fetchers-updating-source-hashes-fakehash-method} The fake hash method: In your package recipe, set the hash to one of
-
-   - `""`
-   - `lib.fakeHash`
-   - `lib.fakeSha256`
-   - `lib.fakeSha512`
-
-   Attempt to build, extract the calculated hashes from error messages, and put them into the recipe.
-
-   :::{.warning}
-   You must use one of these four fake hashes and not some arbitrarily-chosen hash.
-   See [](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-secure-hashes) for details.
-   :::
-
-   :::{.example #ex-fetchers-update-fod-hash}
-   # Update source hash with the fake hash method
-
-   Consider the following recipe that produces a plain file:
-
-   ```nix
-   { fetchurl }:
-   fetchurl {
-     url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05/.version";
-     hash = "sha256-ZHl1emidXVojm83LCVrwULpwIzKE/mYwfztVkvpruOM=";
-   }
-   ```
-
-   A common mistake is to update a fetcher parameter, such as `url`, without updating the hash:
-
-   ```nix
-   { fetchurl }:
-   fetchurl {
-     url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version";
-     hash = "sha256-ZHl1emidXVojm83LCVrwULpwIzKE/mYwfztVkvpruOM=";
-   }
-   ```
-
-   **This will produce the same output as before!**
-   Set the hash to an empty string:
-
-   ```nix
-   { fetchurl }:
-   fetchurl {
-     url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version";
-     hash = "";
-   }
-   ```
-
-   When building the package, use the error message to determine the correct hash:
-
-   ```shell
-   $ nix-build
-   (some output removed for clarity)
-   error: hash mismatch in fixed-output derivation '/nix/store/7yynn53jpc93l76z9zdjj4xdxgynawcw-version.drv':
-           specified: sha256-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=
-               got:    sha256-BZqI7r0MNP29yGH5+yW2tjU9OOpOCEvwWKrWCv5CQ0I=
-   error: build of '/nix/store/bqdjcw5ij5ymfbm41dq230chk9hdhqff-version.drv' failed
-   ```
-   :::
-
-2. Prefetch the source with [`nix-prefetch-<type> <URL>`](https://search.nixos.org/packages?buckets={%22package_attr_set%22%3A[%22No%20package%20set%22]%2C%22package_license_set%22%3A[]%2C%22package_maintainers_set%22%3A[]%2C%22package_platforms%22%3A[]}&query=nix-prefetch), where `<type>` is one of
-
-   - `url`
-   - `git`
-   - `hg`
-   - `cvs`
-   - `bzr`
-   - `svn`
-
-   The hash is printed to stdout.
-
-3. Prefetch by package source (with `nix-prefetch-url '<nixpkgs>' -A <package>.src`, where `<package>` is package attribute name).
-   The hash is printed to stdout.
-
-   This works well when you've upgraded the existing package version and want to find out new hash, but is useless if the package can't be accessed by attribute or the package has multiple sources (`.srcs`, architecture-dependent sources, etc).
-
-4. Upstream hash: use it when upstream provides `sha256` or `sha512`.
-   Don't use it when upstream provides `md5`, compute `sha256` instead.
-
-   A little nuance is that `nix-prefetch-*` tools produce hashes with the `nix32` encoding (a Nix-specific base32 adaptation), but upstream usually provides hexadecimal (`base16`) encoding.
-   Fetchers understand both formats.
-   Nixpkgs does not standardise on any one format.
-
-   You can convert between hash formats with [`nix-hash`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/nix-hash).
-
-5. Extract the hash from a local source archive with `sha256sum`.
-   Use `nix-prefetch-url file:///path/to/archive` if you want the custom Nix `base32` hash.
-
-## Obtaining hashes securely {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-secure-hashes}
-
-It's always a good idea to avoid Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks when downloading source contents.
-Otherwise, you could unknowingly download malware instead of the intended source, and instead of the actual source hash, you'll end up using the hash of malware.
-Here are security considerations for this scenario:
-
-- `http://` URLs are not secure to prefetch hashes.
-
-- Upstream hashes should be obtained via a secure protocol.
-
-- `https://` URLs give you more protections when using `nix-prefetch-*` or for upstream hashes.
-
-- `https://` URLs are secure when using the [fake hash method](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-updating-source-hashes-fakehash-method) *only if* you use one of the listed fake hashes.
-  If you use any other hash, the download will be exposed to MITM attacks even if you use HTTPS URLs.
-
-  In more concrete terms, if you use any other hash, the [`--insecure` flag](https://curl.se/docs/manpage.html#-k) will be passed to the underlying call to `curl` when downloading content.
-
-## Proxy usage {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-proxy}
-
-Nixpkgs fetchers can make use of a http(s) proxy. Each fetcher will automatically inherit proxy-related environment variables (`http_proxy`, `https_proxy`, etc) via [impureEnvVars](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/advanced-attributes#adv-attr-impureEnvVars).
-
-The environment variable `NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE` is also inherited in fetchers, and can be used to provide a custom certificate bundle to fetchers. This is usually required for a https proxy to work without certificate validation errors.
-
-[]{#fetchurl}
-## `fetchurl` {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl}
-
-`fetchurl` returns a [fixed-output derivation](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/glossary.html#gloss-fixed-output-derivation) which downloads content from a given URL and stores the unaltered contents within the Nix store.
-
-It uses {manpage}`curl(1)` internally, and allows its behaviour to be modified by specifying a few attributes in the argument to `fetchurl` (see the documentation for attributes `curlOpts`, `curlOptsList`, and `netrcPhase`).
-
-The resulting [store path](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/store/store-path) is determined by the hash given to `fetchurl`, and also the `name` (or `pname` and `version`) values.
-
-If neither `name` nor `pname` and `version` are specified when calling `fetchurl`, it will default to using the [basename](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-baseNameOf) of `url` or the first element of `urls`.
-If `pname` and `version` are specified, `fetchurl` will use those values and will ignore `name`, even if it is also specified.
-
-### Inputs {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-inputs}

-  See [the documentation on the Nix manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/advanced-attributes.html#adv-attr-outputHashMode) for more information about the existing modes.
-
-  By default, `fetchurl` uses `"recursive"` mode when the `executable` attribute is set to `true`, so you don't need to specify `recursiveHash` in this case.
-
-  _Default value:_ `false`.
-
-`executable` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: If `true`, sets the executable bit on the downloaded file.
-
-  _Default value_: `false`.
-
-`downloadToTemp` (Boolean; _optional_) []{#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-inputs-downloadToTemp}
-: If `true`, saves the downloaded file to a temporary location instead of the expected Nix store location.
-  This is useful when used in conjunction with `postFetch` attribute, otherwise `fetchurl` will not produce any meaningful output.
-
-  The location of the downloaded file will be set in the `$downloadedFile` variable, which should be used by the script in the `postFetch` attribute.
-  See [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version-postfetch) to understand how to work with this attribute.
-
-  _Default value:_ `false`.
-
-`postFetch` (String; _optional_)
-: Script executed after the file has been downloaded successfully, and before `fetchurl` finishes running.
-  Useful for post-processing, to check or transform the file in some way.
-  See [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version-postfetch) to understand how to work with this attribute.
-
-  _Default value:_ `""`.
-
-`netrcPhase` (String or Null; _optional_)
-: Script executed to create a {manpage}`netrc(5)` file to be used with {manpage}`curl(1)`.
-  The script should create the `netrc` file (note that it does not begin with a ".") in the directory it's currently running in (`$PWD`).
-
-  The script is executed during the setup done by `fetchurl` before it runs any of its code to download the specified content.
-
-  :::{.note}
-  If specified, `fetchurl` will automatically alter its invocation of {manpage}`curl(1)` to use the `netrc` file, so you don't need to add anything to `curlOpts` or `curlOptsList`.
-  :::
-
-  :::{.caution}
-  Since `netrcPhase` needs to be specified in your source Nix code, any secrets that you put directly in it will be world-readable by design (both in your source code, and when the derivation gets created in the Nix store).
-
-  If you want to avoid this behaviour, see the documentation of `netrcImpureEnvVars` for an alternative way of dealing with these secrets.
-  :::
-
-  _Default value_: `null`.
-
-`netrcImpureEnvVars` (List of String; _optional_)
-: If specified, `fetchurl` will add these environment variable names to the list of [impure environment variables](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/advanced-attributes.html#adv-attr-impureEnvVars), which will be passed from the environment of the calling user to the builder running the `fetchurl` code.
-
-  This is useful when used with `netrcPhase` to hide any secrets that are used in it, because the script in `netrcPhase` only needs to reference the environment variables with the secrets in them instead.
-  However, note that these are called _impure_ variables for a reason:
-  the environment that starts the build needs to have these variables declared for everything to work properly, which means that additional setup is required outside what Nix controls.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`curlOpts` (String; _optional_)
-: If specified, this value will be appended to the invocation of {manpage}`curl(1)` when downloading the URL(s) given to `fetchurl`.
-  Multiple arguments can be separated by spaces normally, but values with whitespaces will be interpreted as multiple arguments (instead of a single value), even if the value is escaped.
-  See `curlOptsList` for a way to pass values with whitespaces in them.
-
-  _Default value:_ `""`.
-
-`curlOptsList` (List of String; _optional_)
-: If specified, each element of this list will be passed as an argument to the invocation of {manpage}`curl(1)` when downloading the URL(s) given to `fetchurl`.
-  This allows passing values that contain spaces, with no escaping needed.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`showURLs` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: If set to `true`, this will stop `fetchurl` from downloading anything at all.
-  Instead, it will output a list of all the URLs it would've used to download the content (after resolving `mirror://` URLs, for example).
-  This is useful for debugging.
-
-  _Default value:_ `false`.
-
-`meta` (Attribute Set; _optional_)
-: Specifies any [meta-attributes](#chap-meta) for the derivation returned by `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `{}`.
-
-`passthru` (Attribute Set; _optional_)
-: Specifies any extra [`passthru`](#chap-passthru) attributes for the derivation returned by `fetchurl`.
-  Note that `fetchurl` defines [`passthru` attributes of its own](#ssec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-passthru-outputs).
-  Attributes specified in `passthru` can override the default attributes returned by `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `{}`.
-
-`preferLocalBuild` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: This is the same attribute as [defined in the Nix manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/advanced-attributes.html#adv-attr-preferLocalBuild).
-  It is `true` by default because making a remote machine download the content just duplicates network traffic (since the local machine might download the results from the derivation anyway), but this could be useful in cases where network access is restricted on local machines.
-
-  _Default value:_ `true`.
-
-`nativeBuildInputs` (List of Attribute Set; _optional_)
-: Additional packages needed to download the content.
-  This is useful if you need extra packages for `postFetch` or `netrcPhase`, for example.
-  Has the same semantics as in [](#var-stdenv-nativeBuildInputs).
-  See [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version-postfetch) to understand how this can be used with `postFetch`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-### Passthru outputs {#ssec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-passthru-outputs}
-
-`fetchurl` also defines its own [`passthru`](#chap-passthru) attributes:
-
-`url` (String)
-
-: The same `url` attribute passed in the argument to `fetchurl`.
-
-### Examples {#ssec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-examples}
-
-:::{.example #ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version}
-# Using `fetchurl` to download a file
-
-The following package downloads a small file from a URL and shows the most common way to use `fetchurl`:
+The fact that the hash belongs to the Nix derivation output and not the file itself can lead to confusion.
+For example, consider the following fetcher:
 
 ```nix
-{ fetchurl }:
 fetchurl {
-  url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version";
-  hash = "sha256-BZqI7r0MNP29yGH5+yW2tjU9OOpOCEvwWKrWCv5CQ0I=";
-}
+  url = "http://www.example.org/hello-1.0.tar.gz";
+  hash = "sha256-lTeyxzJNQeMdu1IVdovNMtgn77jRIhSybLdMbTkf2Ww=";
+};
 ```
 
-After building the package, the file will be downloaded and place into the Nix store:
-
-```shell
-$ nix-build
-(output removed for clarity)
-/nix/store/4g9y3x851wqrvim4zcz5x2v3zivmsq8n-version
-
-$ cat /nix/store/4g9y3x851wqrvim4zcz5x2v3zivmsq8n-version
-23.11
-```
-:::
-
-:::{.example #ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version-multiple-urls}
-# Using `fetchurl` to download a file with multiple possible URLs
-
-The following package adapts [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version) to use multiple URLs.
-The first URL was crafted to intentionally return an error to illustrate how `fetchurl` will try multiple URLs until it finds one that works (or all URLs fail).
+A common mistake is to update a fetcher’s URL, or a version parameter, without updating the hash.
 
 ```nix
-{ fetchurl }:
 fetchurl {
-  urls = [
-    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/does-not-exist"
-    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version"
-  ];
-  hash = "sha256-BZqI7r0MNP29yGH5+yW2tjU9OOpOCEvwWKrWCv5CQ0I=";
-}
+  url = "http://www.example.org/hello-1.1.tar.gz";
+  hash = "sha256-lTeyxzJNQeMdu1IVdovNMtgn77jRIhSybLdMbTkf2Ww=";
+};
 ```
 
-After building the package, both URLs will be used to download the file:
-
-```shell
-$ nix-build
-(some output removed for clarity)
-trying https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/does-not-exist

-
-$ cat /nix/store/n9asny31z32q7sdw6a8r1gllrsfy53kl-does-not-exist
-23.11
-```
-
-However, note that the name of the file was derived from the first URL (this is further explained in [the `fetchurl` overview](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl)).
-To ensure the result will have the same name regardless of which URLs are used, we can modify the package:
+**This will reuse the old contents**.
+Remember to invalidate the hash argument, in this case by setting the `hash` attribute to an empty string.
 
 ```nix
-{ fetchurl }:
 fetchurl {
-  name = "nixpkgs-version";
-  urls = [
-    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/does-not-exist"
-    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version"

-}
+  url = "http://www.example.org/hello-1.1.tar.gz";
+  hash = "";
+};
 ```
 
-After building the package, the result will have the name we specified:
+Use the resulting error message to determine the correct hash.
 
-```shell

+```
 
-:::{.example #ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version-postfetch}
-# Manipulating the content downloaded by `fetchurl`
+A similar problem arises while testing changes to a fetcher's implementation. If the output of the derivation already exists in the Nix store, test failures can go undetected. The [`invalidateFetcherByDrvHash`](#tester-invalidateFetcherByDrvHash) function helps prevent reusing cached derivations.
 
-It might be useful to manipulate the content downloaded by `fetchurl` directly in its derivation.
-In this example, we'll adapt [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version) to append the result of running the `hello` package to the contents we download, purely to illustrate how to manipulate the content.
+## `fetchurl` and `fetchzip` {#fetchurl}
+
+Two basic fetchers are `fetchurl` and `fetchzip`. Both of these have two required arguments, a URL and a hash. The hash is typically `hash`, although many more hash algorithms are supported. Nixpkgs contributors are currently recommended to use `hash`. This hash will be used by Nix to identify your source. A typical usage of `fetchurl` is provided below.
 
 ```nix
-{ fetchurl, hello, lib }:
-fetchurl {
-  url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11/.version";
+{ stdenv, fetchurl }:
 
-  nativeBuildInputs = [ hello ];
-
-  downloadToTemp = true;
-  postFetch = ''
-    ${lib.getExe hello} >> $downloadedFile
-    mv $downloadedFile $out
-  '';
-
-  hash = "sha256-ceooQQYmDx5+0nfg40uU3NNI2yKrixP7HZ/xLZUNv+w=";
+stdenv.mkDerivation {
+  name = "hello";
+  src = fetchurl {
+    url = "http://www.example.org/hello.tar.gz";
+    hash = "sha256-BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB=";
+  };
 }
 ```
 
-After building the package, the resulting file will have "Hello, world!" appended to it:
-
-```shell
-$ nix-build
-(output removed for clarity)
-/nix/store/ifi6pp7q0ag5h7c5v9h1c1c7bhd10c7f-version
-
-$ cat /nix/store/ifi6pp7q0ag5h7c5v9h1c1c7bhd10c7f-version
-23.11
-Hello, world!
-```
-
-Note that the `hash` specified in the package is different than the hash specified in [](#ex-fetchers-fetchurl-nixpkgs-version), because the contents of the output have changed (even though the actual file that was downloaded is the same).
-See [](#chap-pkgs-fetchers-caveats) for more details on how to work with the `hash` attribute when the output changes.
-:::
-
-## `fetchzip` {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchzip}
-
-Returns a [fixed-output derivation](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/glossary.html#gloss-fixed-output-derivation) which downloads an archive from a given URL and decompresses it.
-
-Despite its name, `fetchzip` is not limited to `.zip` files but can also be used with [various compressed tarball formats](#tar-files) by default.
-This can extended by specifying additional attributes, see [](#ex-fetchers-fetchzip-rar-archive) to understand how to do that.
-
-### Inputs {#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchzip-inputs}
-
-`fetchzip` requires an attribute set, and most attributes are passed to the underlying call to [`fetchurl`](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl).
-
-The attributes below are treated differently by `fetchzip` when compared to what `fetchurl` expects:
-
-`name` (String; _optional_)
-: Works as defined in `fetchurl`, but has a different default value than `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `"source"`.
-
-`nativeBuildInputs` (List of Attribute Set; _optional_)
-: Works as defined in `fetchurl`, but it is also augmented by `fetchzip` to include packages to deal with additional archives (such as `.zip`).
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`postFetch` (String; _optional_)
-: Works as defined in `fetchurl`, but it is also augmented with the code needed to make `fetchzip` work.
-
-  :::{.caution}
-  It is only safe to modify files in `$out` in `postFetch`.
-  Consult the implementation of `fetchzip` for anything more involved.
-  :::
-
-  _Default value:_ `""`.
-
-`stripRoot` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: If `true`, the decompressed contents are moved one level up the directory tree.
-
-  This is useful for archives that decompress into a single directory which commonly includes some values that change with time, such as version numbers.
-  When this is the case (and `stripRoot` is `true`), `fetchzip` will remove this directory and make the decompressed contents available in the top-level directory.
-
-  [](#ex-fetchers-fetchzip-simple-striproot) shows what this attribute does.
-
-  This attribute is **not** passed through to `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `true`.
-
-`extension` (String or Null; _optional_)
-: If set, the archive downloaded by `fetchzip` will be renamed to a filename with the extension specified in this attribute.
-
-  This is useful when making `fetchzip` support additional types of archives, because the implementation may use the extension of an archive to determine whether they can decompress it.
-  If the URL you're using to download the contents doesn't end with the extension associated with the archive, use this attribute to fix the filename of the archive.
-
-  This attribute is **not** passed through to `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `null`.
-
-`recursiveHash` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: Works [as defined in `fetchurl`](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-inputs-recursiveHash), but its default value is different than for `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `true`.
-
-`downloadToTemp` (Boolean; _optional_)
-: Works [as defined in `fetchurl`](#sec-pkgs-fetchers-fetchurl-inputs-downloadToTemp), but its default value is different than for `fetchurl`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `true`.
-
-`extraPostFetch` **DEPRECATED**
-: This attribute is deprecated.
-  Please use `postFetch` instead.
-
-  This attribute is **not** passed through to `fetchurl`.

-# Using `fetchzip` to output contents directly
-
-The following recipe shows how to use `fetchzip` to decompress a `.tar.gz` archive:
-
-```nix
-{ fetchzip }:
-fetchzip {
-  url = "https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/releases/download/0.18.0/patchelf-0.18.0.tar.gz";
-  hash = "sha256-3ABYlME9R8klcpJ7MQpyFEFwHmxDDEzIYBqu/CpDYmg=";
-}
-```
-
-This archive has all its contents in a directory named `patchelf-0.18.0`.
-This means that after decompressing, you'd have to enter this directory to see the contents of the archive.
-However, `fetchzip` makes this easier through the attribute `stripRoot` (enabled by default).
-
-After building the recipe, the derivation output will show all the files in the archive at the top level:
-
-```shell
-$ nix-build
-(output removed for clarity)
-/nix/store/1b7h3fvmgrcddvs0m299hnqxlgli1yjw-source

-```
-
-If `stripRoot` is set to `false`, the derivation output will be the decompressed archive as-is:
-
-```nix
-{ fetchzip }:
-fetchzip {
-  url = "https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/releases/download/0.18.0/patchelf-0.18.0.tar.gz";

-# Using `fetchzip` to decompress a `.rar` file
-
-The `unrar` package provides a [setup hook](#ssec-setup-hooks) to decompress `.rar` archives during the [unpack phase](#ssec-unpack-phase), which can be used with `fetchzip` to decompress those archives:

-  stripRoot = false;
-  nativeBuildInputs = [ unrar ];
-}
-```
-
-Since this particular `.rar` file doesn't put its contents in a directory inside the archive, `stripRoot` must be set to `false`.
-
-After building the recipe, the derivation output will show the decompressed files:

-::::
+The main difference between `fetchurl` and `fetchzip` is in how they store the contents. `fetchurl` will store the unaltered contents of the URL within the Nix store. `fetchzip` on the other hand, will decompress the archive for you, making files and directories directly accessible in the future. `fetchzip` can only be used with archives. Despite the name, `fetchzip` is not limited to .zip files and can also be used with any tarball.

-
-The set of functions in `pkgs.ociTools` currently does not handle the [OCI image specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec).
-
-At a high-level an OCI implementation would download an OCI Image then unpack that image into an OCI Runtime filesystem bundle.
-At this point the OCI Runtime Bundle would be run by an OCI Runtime.

+`pkgs.ociTools` is a set of functions for creating containers according to the [OCI container specification v1.0.0](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec). Beyond that, it makes no assumptions about the container runner you choose to use to run the created container.
 
 ## buildContainer {#ssec-pkgs-ociTools-buildContainer}
 
-This function creates an OCI runtime container (consisting of a `config.json` and a root filesystem directory) that runs a single command inside of it.
-The nix store of the container will contain all referenced dependencies of the given command.
+This function creates a simple OCI container that runs a single command inside of it. An OCI container consists of a `config.json` and a rootfs directory. The nix store of the container will contain all referenced dependencies of the given command.
 
-This function has an assumption that the container will run on POSIX platforms, and sets configurations (such as the user running the process or certain mounts) according to this assumption.
-Because of this, a container built with `buildContainer` will not work on Windows or other non-POSIX platforms without modifications to the container configuration.
-These modifications aren't supported by `buildContainer`.
-
-For `linux` platforms, `buildContainer` also configures the following namespaces (see {manpage}`unshare(1)`) to isolate the OCI container from the global namespace:
-PID, network, mount, IPC, and UTS.
-
-Note that no user namespace is created, which means that you won't be able to run the container unless you are the `root` user.
-
-### Inputs {#ssec-pkgs-ociTools-buildContainer-inputs}
-
-`buildContainer` expects an argument with the following attributes:
-
-`args` (List of String)
-
-: Specifies a set of arguments to run inside the container.
-  Any packages referenced by `args` will be made available inside the container.
-
-`mounts` (Attribute Set; _optional_)
-
-: Would specify additional mounts that the runtime must make available to the container.

-  `buildContainer` includes a minimal set of necessary filesystems to be mounted into the container, and this set can't be changed with the `mounts` attribute.
-  :::
-
-  _Default value:_ `{}`.
-
-`readonly` (Boolean; _optional_)
-
-: If `true`, sets the container's root filesystem as read-only.
-
-  _Default value:_ `false`.
-
-`os` **DEPRECATED**
-
-: Specifies the operating system on which the container filesystem is based on.
-  If specified, its value should follow the [OCI Image Configuration Specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/config.md#properties).
-  According to the linked specification, all possible values for `$GOOS` in [the Go docs](https://go.dev/doc/install/source#environment) should be valid, but will commonly be one of `darwin` or `linux`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `"linux"`.
-
-`arch` **DEPRECATED**
-
-: Used to specify the architecture for which the binaries in the container filesystem have been compiled.

-`pkgs.portableService` is a function to create [Portable Services](https://systemd.io/PORTABLE_SERVICES/) in a read-only, immutable, `squashfs` raw disk image.
-This lets you use Nix to build images which can be run on many recent Linux distributions.
+`pkgs.portableService` is a function to create _portable service images_,
+as read-only, immutable, `squashfs` archives.
+
+systemd supports a concept of [Portable Services](https://systemd.io/PORTABLE_SERVICES/).
+Portable Services are a delivery method for system services that uses two specific features of container management:
+
+* Applications are bundled. I.e. multiple services, their binaries and
+  all their dependencies are packaged in an image, and are run directly from it.
+* Stricter default security policies, i.e. sandboxing of applications.
+
+This allows using Nix to build images which can be run on many recent Linux distributions.
+
+The primary tool for interacting with Portable Services is `portablectl`,
+and they are managed by the `systemd-portabled` system service.
 
 ::: {.note}
 Portable services are supported starting with systemd 239 (released on 2018-06-22).
 :::
 
-The generated image will contain the file system structure as required by the Portable Services specification, along with the packages given to `portableService` and all of their dependencies.
-When generated, the image will exist in the Nix store with the `.raw` file extension, as required by the specification.
-See [](#ex-portableService-hello) to understand how to use the output of `portableService`.
-
-## Inputs {#ssec-pkgs-portableService-inputs}
-
-`portableService` expects one argument with the following attributes:
-
-`pname` (String)
-
-: The name of the portable service.
-  The generated image will be named according to the template `$pname_$version.raw`, which is supported by the Portable Services specification.
-
-`version` (String)
-
-: The version of the portable service.
-  The generated image will be named according to the template `$pname_$version.raw`, which is supported by the Portable Services specification.
-
-`units` (List of Attribute Set)
-
-: A list of derivations for systemd unit files.
-  Each derivation must produce a single file, and must have a name that starts with the value of `pname` and ends with the suffix of the unit type (e.g. ".service", ".socket", ".timer", and so on).
-  See [](#ex-portableService-hello) to better understand this naming constraint.
-
-`description` (String or Null; _optional_)
-
-: If specified, the value is added as `PORTABLE_PRETTY_NAME` to the `/etc/os-release` file in the generated image.
-  This could be used to provide more information to anyone inspecting the image.
-
-  _Default value:_ `null`.
-
-`homepage` (String or Null; _optional_)
-
-: If specified, the value is added as `HOME_URL` to the `/etc/os-release` file in the generated image.
-  This could be used to provide more information to anyone inspecting the image.
-
-  _Default value:_ `null`.
-
-`symlinks` (List of Attribute Set; _optional_)
-
-: A list of attribute sets in the format `{object, symlink}`.
-  For each item in the list, `portableService` will create a symlink in the path specified by `symlink` (relative to the root of the image) that points to `object`.
-
-  All packages that `object` depends on and their dependencies are automatically copied into the image.
-
-  This can be used to create symlinks for applications that assume some files to exist globally (`/etc/ssl` or `/bin/bash`, for example).
-  See [](#ex-portableService-symlinks) to understand how to do that.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`contents` (List of Attribute Set; _optional_)
-
-: A list of additional derivations to be included as-is in the image.
-  These derivations will be included directly in a `/nix/store` directory inside the image.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`squashfsTools` (Attribute Set; _optional_)
-
-: Allows you to override the package that provides {manpage}`mksquashfs(1)`, which is used internally by `portableService`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `pkgs.squashfsTools`.
-
-`squash-compression` (String; _optional_)
-
-: Passed as the compression option to {manpage}`mksquashfs(1)`, which is used internally by `portableService`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `"xz -Xdict-size 100%"`.
-
-`squash-block-size` (String; _optional_)
-
-: Passed as the block size option to {manpage}`mksquashfs(1)`, which is used internally by `portableService`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `"1M"`.
-
-## Examples {#ssec-pkgs-portableService-examples}
+A very simple example of using `portableService` is described below:
 
 []{#ex-pkgs-portableService}
-:::{.example #ex-portableService-hello}
-# Building a Portable Service image
-
-The following example builds a Portable Service image with the `hello` package, along with a service unit that runs it.
 
 ```nix
-{ lib, writeText, portableService, hello }:
-let
-  hello-service = writeText "hello.service" ''
-    [Unit]
-    Description=Hello world service
-
-    [Service]
-    Type=oneshot
-    ExecStart=${lib.getExe hello}
-  '';
-in
-portableService {
-  pname = "hello";
-  inherit (hello) version;
-  units = [ hello-service ];
+pkgs.portableService {
+  pname = "demo";
+  version = "1.0";
+  units = [ demo-service demo-socket ];
 }
 ```
 
-After building the package, the generated image can be loaded into a system through {manpage}`portablectl(1)`:
+The above example will build an squashfs archive image in `result/$pname_$version.raw`. The image will contain the
+file system structure as required by the portable service specification, and a subset of the Nix store with all the
+dependencies of the two derivations in the `units` list.
+`units` must be a list of derivations, and their names must be prefixed with the service name (`"demo"` in this case).
+Otherwise `systemd-portabled` will ignore them.

-The user entries created by `fakeNss` use the `/bin/sh` shell, which is not provided by `fakeNss` because in most cases it won't be used.
-If you need that to be available, see [`dockerTools.binSh`](#sssec-pkgs-dockerTools-helpers-binSh) or provide your own.
-
-## Inputs {#sec-fakeNss-inputs}
-
-`fakeNss` is made available in Nixpkgs as a package rather than a function, but it has two attributes that can be overridden and might be useful in particular cases.
-For more details on how overriding works, see [](#ex-fakeNss-overriding) and [](#sec-pkg-override).
-
-`extraPasswdLines` (List of Strings; _optional_)
-
-: A list of lines that will be added to `/etc/passwd`.
-  Useful if extra users need to exist in the output of `fakeNss`.
-  If `extraPasswdLines` is specified, it will **not** override the `root` and `nobody` entries created by `fakeNss`.
-  Those entries will always exist.
-
-  Lines specified here must follow the format in {manpage}`passwd(5)`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.
-
-`extraGroupLines` (List of Strings; _optional_)
-
-: A list of lines that will be added to `/etc/group`.
-  Useful if extra groups need to exist in the output of `fakeNss`.
-  If `extraGroupLines` is specified, it will **not** override the `root` and `nobody` entries created by `fakeNss`.
-  Those entries will always exist.
-
-  Lines specified here must follow the format in {manpage}`group(5)`.
-
-  _Default value:_ `[]`.

-## Examples {#sec-fakeNss-examples}
-
-:::{.example #ex-fakeNss-dockerTools-buildImage}
-# Using `fakeNss` with `dockerTools.buildImage`
-
-This example shows how to use `fakeNss` as-is.
-It is useful with functions in `dockerTools` to allow building Docker images that have the `/etc/passwd` and `/etc/group` files.
-This example includes the `hello` binary in the image so it can do something besides just have the extra files.
-
-```nix
-{ dockerTools, fakeNss, hello }:
-dockerTools.buildImage {
-  name = "image-with-passwd";
-  tag = "latest";

-## `lycheeLinkCheck` {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck}
-
-Check a packaged static site's links with the [`lychee` package](https://search.nixos.org/packages?show=lychee&type=packages&query=lychee).
-
-You may use Nix to reproducibly build static websites, such as for software documentation.
-Some packages will install documentation in their `out` or `doc` outputs, or maybe you have dedicated package where you've made your static site reproducible by running a generator, such as [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/) or [mdBook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/), in a derivation.
-
-If you have a static site that can be built with Nix, you can use `lycheeLinkCheck` to check that the hyperlinks in your site are correct, and do so as part of your Nix workflow and CI.
-
-:::{.example #ex-lycheelinkcheck}
-
-# Check hyperlinks in the `nix` documentation
-
-```nix
-testers.lycheeLinkCheck {
-  site = nix.doc + "/share/doc/nix/manual";
-}
-```
-
-:::
-
-### Return value {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck-return}
-
-This tester produces a package that does not produce useful outputs, but only succeeds if the hyperlinks in your site are correct. The build log will list the broken links.
-
-It has two modes:
-
-- Build the returned derivation; its build process will check that internal hyperlinks are correct. This runs in the sandbox, so it will not check external hyperlinks, but it is quick and reliable.
-
-- Invoke the `.online` attribute with [`nix run`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-run) ([experimental](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/contributing/experimental-features#xp-feature-nix-command)). This runs outside the sandbox, and checks that both internal and external hyperlinks are correct.
-  Example:
-
-  ```shell
-  nix run nixpkgs#lychee.tests.ok.online
-  ```
-
-### Inputs {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck-inputs}
-
-`site` (path or derivation) {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck-param-site}
-
-: The path to the files to check.
-
-`remap` (attribe set, optional) {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck-param-remap}
-
-: An attribute set where the attribute names are regular expressions.
-  The values should be strings, derivations, or path values.
-
-  In the returned check's default configuration, external URLs are only checked when you run the `.online` attribute.
-
-  By adding remappings, you can check offline that URLs to external resources are correct, by providing a stand-in from the file system.
-
-  Before checking the existence of a URL, the regular expressions are matched and replaced by their corresponding values.
-
-  Example:
-
-  ```nix
-  {
-    "https://nix\\.dev/manual/nix/[a-z0-9.-]*" = "${nix.doc}/share/doc/nix/manual";
-    "https://nixos\\.org/manual/nix/(un)?stable" = "${emptyDirectory}/placeholder-to-disallow-old-nix-docs-urls";
-  }
-  ```
-
-  Store paths in the attribute values are automatically prefixed with `file://`, because lychee requires this for paths in the file system.
-  If this is a problem, or if you need to control the order in which replacements are performed, use `extraConfig.remap` instead.
-
-`extraConfig` (attribute set) {#tester-lycheeLinkCheck-param-extraConfig}
-
-: Extra configuration to pass to `lychee` in its [configuration file](https://github.com/lycheeverse/lychee/blob/master/lychee.example.toml).
-  It is automatically [translated](https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#sec-settings-nix-representable) to TOML.

-
-All recognised keys from the specification are supported with the exception of the "Hidden" field. The keys are converted into camelCase format, but correspond 1:1 to their equivalent in the specification: `genericName`, `noDisplay`, `comment`, `icon`, `onlyShowIn`, `notShowIn`, `dbusActivatable`, `tryExec`, `exec`, `path`, `terminal`, `mimeTypes`, `categories`, `implements`, `keywords`, `startupNotify`, `startupWMClass`, `url`, `prefersNonDefaultGPU`.
-
-The "Version" field is hardcoded to the version `makeDesktopItem` currently adheres to.
-
-The following fields are either required, are of a different type than in the specification, carry specific default values, or are additional fields supported by `makeDesktopItem`:
-
-`name` (String)
-
-: The name of the desktop file in the Nix store.
-
-`type` (String; _optional_)
-
-: Default value: `"Application"`
-
-`desktopName` (String)
-
-: Corresponds to the "Name" field of the specification.
-
-`actions` (List of Attribute set; _optional_)
-
-: A list of attribute sets {name, exec?, icon?}
-
-`extraConfig` (Attribute set; _optional_)
-
-: Additional key/value pairs to be added verbatim to the desktop file. Attributes need to be prefixed with 'X-'.
-
-#### Examples {#trivial-builder-makeDesktopItem-examples}

-`writeShellApplication` is similar to `writeShellScriptBin` and `writeScriptBin` but supports runtime dependencies with `runtimeInputs`.
-Writes an executable shell script to `/nix/store/<store path>/bin/<name>` and checks its syntax with [`shellcheck`](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck) and the `bash`'s `-n` option.
-Some basic Bash options are set by default (`errexit`, `nounset`, and `pipefail`), but can be overridden with `bashOptions`.
+This can be used to easily produce a shell script that has some dependencies (`runtimeInputs`). It automatically sets the `PATH` of the script to contain all of the listed inputs, sets some sanity shellopts (`errexit`, `nounset`, `pipefail`), and checks the resulting script with [`shellcheck`](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck).
 
-Extra arguments may be passed to `stdenv.mkDerivation` by setting `derivationArgs`; note that variables set in this manner will be set when the shell script is _built,_ not when it's run.
-Runtime environment variables can be set with the `runtimeEnv` argument.

-For example, the following shell application can refer to `curl` directly, rather than needing to write `${curl}/bin/curl`:

-This can be used to put many derivations into the same directory structure. It works by creating a new derivation and adding symlinks to each of the paths listed.

They will be concatenated into a single big string.

 This hook will make a build pause instead of stopping when a failure happens. It prevents nix from cleaning up the build environment immediately and allows the user to attach to a build environment using the `cntr` command. Upon build error it will print instructions on how to use `cntr`, which can be used to enter the environment for debugging. Installing cntr and running the command will provide shell access to the build sandbox of failed build. At `/var/lib/cntr` the sandboxed filesystem is mounted. All commands and files of the system are still accessible within the shell. To execute commands from the sandbox use the cntr exec subcommand. `cntr` is only supported on Linux-based platforms. To use it first add `cntr` to your `environment.systemPackages` on NixOS or alternatively to the root user on non-NixOS systems. Then in the package that is supposed to be inspected, add `breakpointHook` to `nativeBuildInputs`.
