2016-04-05nixpkgs manual introduction: improveVladimír Čunát
- make line wrapping more consistent (overlong lines) - don't stress the manual is *only* for contributors, as it does contain some user-guide parts, including the intro itself - since March our Hydra publishes binaries immediately, not waiting for channel update

2016-03-20ruby docs: improve the exampleVladimír Čunát
- missing cd command - invoke bundler through nix-shell, so it doesn't need to be on $PATH Note: running bundix through nix-shell won't work ATM, as the shell sets SSL_CERT_FILE=/no-cert-file.crt which prevents fetching throug https. - use version from gemset to simplify updating - don't break line in meta.description

2016-02-24nixpkgs manual: Fix license strings docsFranz Pletz
The wrong usage of unfree-redistributable fixed in ea242619fb0028f830238a0fa1b19277d14508ff can be explaind by unclear documention, specifically the section in the nixpkgs manual describing generic licenses it is written to use attributes from `stdenv.lib.licenses` but in the list the strings form was documented without quotation marks. This confuses people because the package builds fine locally but failes the tests on travis-ci.

2016-02-21DOC: Overview of Nixpkgs/channels/Hydra/tests (close #11263)Frederik Rietdijk
What I missed when I began using Nix and NixOS was a clear overview of how packages, channels, Hydra, the master branch and updates to channels relate to each other. I've noticed I am not the only one, given the amount of times these questions pop up. For now I propose to include this in the Nixpkgs manual, since this seems to be the best fit. However, I think it would be good to include this in either a new manual, i.e., a user manual, or an 'official' tutorial.
2016-02-17Merge branch 'staging'Vladimír Čunát
It seemed very fine on Hydra before it was cancelled due to glibc rebuild, in particular the nixpkgs unstable job succeeded except for bootstrap-tarball tests which should be fine after ee994dfae6e. Therefore, let's avoid another mass rebuild by merging now when we don't have binaries for master anyway.
