ab5c6bb3a3 * Change referer' to referrer' throughout. In particular, the
nix-store query options `--referer' and `--referer-closure' have
  been changed to `--referrer' and `--referrer-closure' (but the old
  ones are still accepted for compatibility).

a5ceb5bc0b * nix-build: default to `./default.nix' if no paths are specified.
So when using Nix as a build tool, you can just say `nix-build' and
  it will build the top-level derivation defined in `default.nix'.

88dea78cdf * Crazy: don't use real hashes of real components in examples, since
they cause Nix builds to have unnecessary retained dependences
  (e.g., on Subversion).
