[Nix-dev] Nix-prefetch-git from branch?

[Anderson Torres]

Here is my commit:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/79301503665b29d2ab7d2d62d6dabd72bb40d74d/pkgs/misc/emulators/ppsspp/default.nix

Notice I have used rev = "8c8e5de89d52b8bcb968227d96cbf049d04d1241";
this rev number is easy to get from Releases:
