sharing package directories (i.e., the result of building a Nix
descriptor).
`nix-pull-prebuilts' obtains a list of all known prebuilts by
consulting the paths and URLs specified in
$prefix/etc/nix/prebuilts.conf. The mappings ($pkghash,
$prebuilthash) and ($prebuilthash, $location) are registered with
Nix so that it can use the prebuilt with hash $prebuilthash when
installing a package with hash $pkghash by downloading and unpacking
$location.
`nix-push-prebuilts' creates prebuilts for all packages for which no
prebuilt is known to exist. It can then optionally upload these
to the network through rsync.
`nix-[pull|push]-prebuilts' just provide a policy. Nix provides the
mechanism through the `nix [export|regprebuilt|regurl]' commands.
