I have now added a small wrapper script which allows you to pull artefacts by MR number.
https://github.com/mpickering/ghc-artefact-nix#ghc-head-from-script ``` # Fetches MR 180 ghc-head-from 180 ``` ``` #Fetches ghc/master ghc-head-from ``` The most convenient way to access the script is to add the attribute `nur.repos.mpickering.ghc-head-from` to your configuration.nix.
