This is one of the two plans to ensure we can also perform github evaluation checks in the future.

See https://discourse.nixos.org/t/infrastructure-announcement-the-future-of-ofborg-your-help-needed/56025
for more information.

To replace OfBorg’s functions with GitHub Actions the following tasks need to be implemented:

• Running evaluation checks on Nixpkgs
• Eval NixOS options.
• Identifying package rebuilds and adding appropriate labels to the repository.
• Notifying package maintainers
• (Optional) Rebuilding selected packages for Linux/macOS.
• build lib-tests if ./lib changes
• Performance report equivalent

I already created a proof of concept pull request here: #352808
