  This is a set of tools to manipulate update scripts as recognized by update.nix.
  It is still very experimental with **instability** almost guaranteed so any use
  outside Nixpkgs is discouraged.

  update.nix currently accepts the following type:

  type UpdateScript
    // Simple path to script to execute script
    = FilePath
    // Path to execute plus arguments to pass it
    | [ (FilePath | String) ]
    // Advanced attribue set (experimental)
    | {
      // Script to execute (same as basic update script above)
      command : (FilePath | [ (FilePath | String) ])
      // Features that the script supports
      // - commit: (experimental) returns commit message in stdout
      // - silent: (experimental) returns no stdout
      supportedFeatures : ?[ ("commit" | "silent") ]
      // Override attribute path detected by update.nix
