Eelco Dolstra 9f027b22b1 Allow users to reproduce builds on their own systems
You can now do:

  bash <(curl http://hydra-server/build/1238757/reproduce)

to download and execute a script that reproduces a Hydra build
locally.  This script fetches all inputs (e.g. Git repositories) and
then invokes nix-build.

The downloaded sources are stored in /tmp/build-<buildid> and reused
between invocations of the script.

Any additional command line options are passed to nix-build.  So

  bash <(curl http://hydra-server/build/1238757/reproduce) --run-env

will drop you in a shell where you can interactively hack on the
build, e.g.

  $ source $stdenv/setup
  $ set +e
  $ unpackPhase
  $ cd $sourceRoot
  $ configurePhase
  $ emacs foo.c &
  $ make

and so on.
