System.Nix.ContentAddress

An address for a content-addressable store path, i.e. one whose store path hash is purely a function of its contents (as opposed to paths that are derivation outputs, whose hashes are a function of the contents of the derivation file instead).

For backwards-compatibility reasons, the same information is encodable in multiple ways, depending on the method used to add the path to the store. These unfortunately result in separate store paths.

Add path recursively or not
