Silvan, are you collecting languages you've written load-bearing production code in? 😜

Haha I guess so! I feel like jq hits a good spot where it's interpreted (so not needing compilation like nixpkgs-vet), not arcane (such as bash), and made for processing (unlike Nix). I'd be happy to merge a rewrite in Nix though, that's definitely more approachable 😄

Successfully created backport PR for release-24.11:

• [Backport release-24.11] ci/eval: Also count added packages as rebuilds #361215

#362028

should have added a darwin rebuild but it did not. (the package is new for darwin as meta.platforms was previously just linux but I changed it to unix).

[edit] ofborg updated the labels but can still see the results of the GHA evaluation counts.

FWIW I did implement this in sql using duckdb (duckdb is handy to do sql things on csv and json files, among other things)

tho not sure if worth pursuing further as while easier for me to deal with not sure if it is for others.

For future reference: #362844
