Domen Kožar 7a5b85cdda pkgs.runCommand: passAsFile (buildCommand can be very long)
Close #15803. This avoids the error:

while setting up the build environment: executing
‘/nix/store/7sb42axk5lrxqz45nldrb2pchlys14s1-bash-4.3-p42/bin/bash’:
Argument list too long

Note: I wanted to make it optional based on buildCommand length,
but that seems pointless as I'm sure it's less performant.

Build Status Issue Stats Issue Stats

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
