Name
     nix registry add - add/replace flake in user flake registry

Synopsis
     nix registry add [option...] from-url to-url

Examples
     *	Set the nixpkgs flake identifier to a specific branch of Nixpkgs:

     # nix registry add nixpkgs github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-20.03

     *	Pin nixpkgs to a specific revision:

     # nix registry add nixpkgs github:NixOS/nixpkgs/925b70cd964ceaedee26fde9b19cc4c4f081196a

     *	Add  an  entry	that  redirects  a specific branch of nixpkgs to another
	fork:

     # nix registry add nixpkgs/nixos-20.03 ~/Dev/nixpkgs

     *	Add nixpkgs pointing to github:nixos/nixpkgs to your custom  flake  reg-
	istry:

     nix registry add --registry ./custom-flake-registry.json nixpkgs github:nixos/nixpkgs

Description
     This  command  adds an entry to the user registry that maps flake reference
     from-url to flake reference to-url. If an entry for  from-url  already  ex-
     ists, it is overwritten.

     Entries can be removed using nix registry remove.
