[Nix-dev] fetchgit

[Teo Klestrup]

Is bcupkgs a fork of Nixpkgs? If so then you probably want to override
Nixpkgs in your NIX_PATH by setting NIX_PATH=nixpkgs=~/local/bcupkgs.

Hi,

I've modify fetchgit module to add an optional argument to filter
submodule. And I would like to use this optional argument to build my
local package. Unfortunately, nix-build still get fetchgit from the main
channel instead of ~/local/bcupckgs:

 -> nix-build  --show-trace ~/local/bcupkgs --cores 8 -A lima-core

error: while evaluating the attribute ‘src’ of the derivation
‘lima-core-1.7’ at

called with unexpected argument ‘submodulesList’, at
/users/blissadm/local/bcupkgs/pkgs/development/libraries/
lima-core/default.nix:12:9

it didn't get the "good one" which is in
~/local/bcupkgs/pkgs/build-support/fetchgit.

I've tried to install nix-prefetch-git locally but it doesn't change
anything.
What is the good way to archive this?

Regards,

SEB
