@gurgeh this is because the project depends on go-flags...which is not currently added as a proper git submodule... Could this please be resolved? if you clone jessevdk/go-flags where it belongs you can compile it..but then...is this project gonna continue? @chrisfarms

bump. @chrisfarms

Use this fork https://github.com/wavewave/nixos-shell/tree/submodule

For confused readers in the future, run this:

git clone --recurse-submodules -b submodule [email protected]:wavewave/nixos-shell.git
cd nixos-shell
nix-env -i -f default.nix

Sadly, didn't manage to get this working on MacOS. This project depends on nixos-container which doesn't build on Darwin.
