I believed we discussed also adding mercurial here as well if it's for the graphical image.

@snicket2100 I believe pkgs.git would work here as well, is there any particular reason for gitFull?

I don't see a reason to add Mercurial. Git is probably fine. What's the impact on the size of the ISO?

@danbst No, there wasn't any particular reason to use gitFull. I have changed it to git.

The impact on the size of the ISO is ~ 14MiB.

part of the increased closure size is because of static linking of every Git binary: https://marc.info/?l=git&m=156028332301884&w=2
