- Added `rewriteURL` attribute to the nixpkgs `config`, to allow for rewriting the URLs downloaded by `fetchurl`.
- Added `gitConfig` and `gitConfigFile` option to the nixpkgs `config`, to allow for setting a default `gitConfigFile` for all `fetchgit` invocations.
- The `dockerTools.streamLayeredImage` builder now uses a better algorithm for generating layered docker images, such that much more sharing is possible when the number of store paths exceeds the layer limit. It gives each of the largest store paths its own layer and adds dependencies to those layers when they aren't used elsewhere.
- The systemd initrd will now respect `x-systemd.wants` and `x-systemd.requires` for reliably unlocking multi-disk bcachefs volumes.

* `$debug/lib/debug/.build-id/48/3bd7f7229bdb06462222e1e353e4f37e15c293.sourceoverlay` is a symlink to a directory with the same structure as the expanded `$sourceRoot` but containing only a copy of files which were patched during the build
* `$debug/lib/debug/.build-id/48/3bd7f7229bdb06462222e1e353e4f37e15c293.debug` is the file containing debug symbols (like before).
- `fetchgit`: Add `gitConfigFile` argument to set a git config (via `$GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL`) for the fetcher.
- `fetchgit`: Add `rootDir` argument to limit the resulting source to one subdirectory of the whole Git repository. Corresponding `--root-dir` option added to `nix-prefetch-git`.
- `nix-prefetch-git`: Added a `--no-add-path` argument to disable adding the path to the store; this is useful when working with a [read-only store](https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.28/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-help-stores#store-experimental-local-overlay-store-read-only).
