# Pinch
PIN CHannels - a simple drop-in replacement for `nix-channel --update`.
Example usage, being invoked on the example "channels" file included here:
- $ python3 pinch.py pin channels
- $ python3 pinch.py update channels
+ $ pinch pin channels
+ $ pinch update channels
The first "pin" command will add these fields to the file:
| Rejects force pushes | - | - | - | - | yes |
| Ready to use today | yes | - | yes | yes | yes |
