The "name" attribute defaults to "source", which we should use for all similar functions (e.g. fetchTarball and in Hydra) to ensure that we get a consistent store path regardless of how the tree is fetched. "source" is not necessarily a correct label, but using an empty name is problematic: you get an ugly store path ending in a dash, and it's impossible to have a fixed-output derivation that produces that path because ".drv" is not a valid store name. Fixes #904. |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
