nixpkgs/modules/system/activation/top-level.nix
Eelco Dolstra 98cce35041 * Turn the top-level derivation of a NixOS configuration ("system")
into a NixOS module (modules/system/activation/top-level.nix -
  couldn't think of a better name).  The top-level derivation is
  returned in config.system.build.system.
* Inlined system.sh in top-level.nix so that we don't have to pass
  everything through environment variables.
