  # sources.nix contains information about which versions of some of our
  # dependencies we should use.  since we use it to pin nixpkgs and the PyPI
  # package database, roughly all the rest of our dependencies are *also*
  # pinned - indirectly.
  #
  # sources.nix is managed using a tool called `niv`.  as an example, to
  # update to the most recent version of nixpkgs from the 21.11 maintenance
  # release, in the top-level tahoe-lafs checkout directory you run:
  #
  #   niv update nixpkgs-21.11
  #
  # or, to update the PyPI package database -- which is necessary to make any
  # newly released packages visible -- you likewise run:
  #
  #   niv update pypi-deps-db
  #
  # niv also supports chosing a specific revision, following a different
  # branch, etc.  find complete documentation for the tool at
  # https://github.com/nmattia/niv
