#NixOS / #nixpkgs questions: I'm running against nixos-unstable. Home Manager has a "news" feature that tells me when things change in ways I might care about. Does anyone have a cunning way to get notified about changes to the Nixpkgs and NixOS release notes?
I can write my own monitoring script, but if there's a way of doing this that doesn't require reinventing this particular wheel, that'd be preferable!

@me_and@tech.lgbt Isn't this exactly what mkRemovedOptionModule and mkAliasOptionModule are for? There's nothing really for new stuff except monitoring nixpkgs pull requests and filter by the has: module tag
