If a package's attribute path, description or name contains matches for any of the
regexes specified via `-e` or `--exclude` that package is excluded from
the final output.
User on Matrix reported install problems which presented as
"vifs:editing error" which we traced back to vim griping about an
existing swap file. When opened interactively, it did this:
E325: ATTENTION
Found a swap file by the name "/etc/.fstab.swp"
owned by: root dated: Sön Apr 24 16:54:10 2022
file name: /private/etc/fstab
modified: YES
user name: root host name: MBP.local
process ID: 1698
While opening file "/etc/fstab"

NEWER than swap file!

The git fetcher code used to dereference the (potentially empty) `ref`
input attribute. This was magically working, probably because the
compiler somehow outsmarted us, but is now blowing up with newer nixpkgs
versions.
Fix that by not trying to access this field while we don't know for sure
that it has been defined.

Without the change llvm build fails on this week's gcc-13 snapshot as:

Added using the following sed scripts:
- For command-ref/opt-common.md:
s~- `(--?)([^`]+)`~- [`\1\2`]{#opt-\2}~g
- For expressions/builtin-constants.md:
s~- `(builtins\.?)([^`]+)`~- [`\1\2`]{#builtins-\2}~g
- For expressions/advanced-attributes.md
s~^ - `([^`]+)`~ - [`\1`]{#adv-attr-\1}~g
and manually adjusted outputHashAlgo & outputHashMode.
- For glossary.md
s~^ - (`([^`]+)`|(.+)) ?\\~ - [\1]{#gloss-\2\3}\\~g;
s~(gloss-\w+) ~\1-~g
and manually adjusted anchors for Nix expression, user environment, NAR, ∅ and ε.
- For command-ref/env-common.md
s~^ - `([^`]+)`~ - [`\1`]{#env-\1}~g'
Python is only pulled into the build closure by Mercurial, which might end up being removed.
Let’s port the script to jq, which is more likely to stay.
It is now possible to use the following syntax to insert anchors into the text:
[]{#anchor-name}
The anchor will allow linking to the location it is placed by appending #anchor-name to the URL.
Additionally, it is possible to create a link pointing to its own location by adding text between the square brackets:
[`--add-root`]{#opt-add-root}
