Users of the Nix package manager can install it by running:

nix-env -i git-annex

When including it in a NixOS configuration.nix file, the name of the reference to the package is

haskellPackages.gitAnnex

The build status of the package within Nix can be seen on the Hydra Build Farm.

Building git-annex with Nix 1.7 fails for me. Error:

Someone has an idea what Nix expects me to do in this situation?
