git-cinnabar calls into Mercurial as a library, so we make use the
same version of Python as Mercurial.

Support for Python 3 is an experimental feature in git-cinnabar, but
we unconditionally use it here because:

  • Mercurial in Nixpkgs only supports Python 3.
  • git-cinnabar touches a network, and for that purpose it's good to use a version of Python that is going to get security updates.
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
