Subject: Is there something similar to nix overlays in guix?
Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2021 16:20:04 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAK9RveKVsewhmybK+O6r2H1PEsXjiWzKwwgeRa4a_0N9C7UPeQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Use case:

You don't want to be a slave to upstream developers' decisions and
want to apply out-of-tree patches that automatically propagate to the
rest of the packages ecosystem.
