[Nix-dev] how to get a hydra / github branch?

The problem with hydra.nixos.org is that the machine is so overloaded
that it manages only ~1 evaluation per day. This means that you'll have
to wait a day or two before you get feedback for a commit.

I used the nixops configuration attached below to spawn my own Hydra in
EC2. I haven't run it in a while, though, so it may have bit-rotted a
little. Anyway, I hope it helps.
