Eelco Dolstra cc357c7e64 nixos-rebuild: Add a convenience option ‘--upgrade’
This is equivalent to running ‘nix-channel --update nixos’ before
running ‘nixos-rebuild’.

Eelco Dolstra 29b05fb62a * nixos-checkout: add an argument to specify the directory where the
sources should be stored.  E.g. "nixos-checkout /home/eelco/srcs"
  will check out to /home/eelco/srcs/{nixos,nixpkgs}.  Probably the
  /etc/nixos default should be removed eventually because /etc is a
  pretty weird place to keep large source trees.

Eelco Dolstra 846cb81234 * Comment out the "Configuration in home directory" chapter.
Everything described in that chapter is a bug (e.g. needing to
  manually create symlinks) that properly belongs in the issue tracker
  or wiki, not in the manual.

Eelco Dolstra be189991e0 * Revert r33928: veth* can also be a bridged interface requiring dhcp.
See e.g. https://nixos.org/repos/nix/configurations/trunk/tud/stan.nix

  So we need a better solution for this...

Sander van der Burg 11d2cd78e0 - deployment.targetHost is now used for connecting to remote hosts instead of deployment.hostname. This makes more sense.

Eelco Dolstra c1295661c4 * Added a command `nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader'. This is
like `build-vm', but boots using the regular boot loader (i.e. GRUB
  1 or 2) rather than booting directly from the kernel/initrd.  Thus
  it allows testing of GRUB.
