An open source license protects contributors and users. Closes #16.

I assume the omission of a license was an oversight, so I would like to help by providing a suggestion and taking care of the process.

For the license I propose MIT, same as Nixpkgs.

@edolstra @Ma27 @zanculmarktum @cole-h @matthewbauer @nlewo @zimbatm please comment to confirm:

I agree to license my contributions to flake-compat under the terms of the MIT license.


Of course you are free not to agree. Doing so would be bad for the community though. See https://choosealicense.com/no-permission/

I've reverted the unlicensed commit. It may not have been "creative work" under copyright, but better safe than sorry. Also, no hard feelings.

Could someone implement tarball support on this branch, without looking at earlier versions or the "Revert unlicensed contribution" commit? ie "clean room" reimplementation. I estimate that it can be done in well under 30 minutes. I'd do it myself if it wasn't for the fact that I've already worked on that code.

I don't think a "clean room" implementation is necessary since this contribution is "de minimis" and can't really be implemented in another (obvious) way.
