if a nix build would fail CI will attempt the build not just twice (initial + retry) but 2(n+1) times: twice initially, and twice for every reverse dependency. this causes a failing build to hold up CI for a lot longer than a succeeding build

might it be a good idea to remove retries themselves too? so far we've not seen a failure that was retried into success

Retries were removed, @pennae ; is it still a concern?

This is no longer a strong concern with #5 merged in; CI no longer retries and no longer builds builds with failed dependencies.
