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.
