[Nix-dev] fetchFromGithub

[Arseniy Seroka]

I know that. But I have to know revision to use `fetchZip`.
I can get the latest revision from `nix-prefetch-git` as I mentioned..
But that way gives me wrong sha for future use in `fetchFromGithub`.

Surely I can do it twice, first use `nix-prefetch-git` to get info,
and after that use `nix-prefetch-zip`. But that's not good IMO :(
