This is based on the [relevant code] in C++ Nix. Our version has more
branches because the C++ one only checks if it is less than or not, so
can save handling a few cases. We on the other hand, can avoid calling
the algorithm twice. It'd be nice to implement proptests for this in the
future and to make sure that this weird little algorithm doesn't violate
the Ord laws.

Tvix
For more information about Tvix, contact one of the project owners. We are interested in people who would like to help us review designs, brainstorm and describe requirements that we may not yet have considered.
License structure
All code implemented for Tvix is licensed under the GPL-3.0, with the exception of the protocol buffer definitions used for communication between services which are available under a more permissive license (MIT).
The idea behind this structure is that any direct usage of our code (e.g. linking to it, embedding the evaluator, etc.) will fall under the terms of the GPL3, but users are free to implement their own components speaking these protocols under the terms of the MIT license.
