[Nix-dev] How to best override nodePackages?

Hi,

I understand that there have been some changes that make Nixpkgs more
overridable.

Could anybody explain how to override the nodePackages derivations so I can
use the most recent versions? Node packages update much faster than
Nixpkgs/Hydra can follow, and compiling them is trivial…

Ideally, this would be just in .nixpkgs/config.nix

Thanks!

Wout.
