# `nix/modular`
|
|
|
|
This directory follows a directory structure similar to that in the upstream repo,
|
|
to make comparisons easier.
|
|
|
|
The files are maintained separately from the upstream repo, so differences are expected.
|
|
|
|
## Comparison
|
|
|
|
### No filesets
|
|
|
|
Using filesets with a fetched source would require "IFD", as the fetching happens in a derivation, but the filtering must come afterwards, and be done by the evaluator.
|
|
|
|
### `workDir` attribute
|
|
|
|
The Nixpkgs for Nix inherits the `workDir` attribute that determines the location of the subproject to build.
|
|
It is compared to this directory to produce the correct relative path, similar to upstream.
