# Basically the unit value for derivations.
#
# In addition to simple test situations which require
# a derivation, we set __functor, so you can call it
# as a function and pass an attrset. The set you pass
# is `//`-merged with the attrset before calling derivation,
# so you can use this to add more fields.
