* New operation `nix-env --set' which sets a user environment to a

single derivation specified by the argument.  This is useful when we
  want to have a profile for a single derivation, such as a server
  configuration.  Then we can just say (e.g.)

  $ nix-env -p /.../server-profile -f server.nix --set -A server

  We can't do queries or upgrades on such a profile, but we can do
  rollbacks.  The advantage over -i is that we don't have to worry
  about other packages having been installed in the profile
  previously; --set gets rid of them.
