A nixpkgs overlay is also provided via `overlay.nix`, that can be used
with tools like [home-manager][]:

```nix
nixpkgs.overlays = [
  (let url = https://github.com/utdemir/nix-tree/archive/master.tar.gz;
    in import "${builtins.fetchTarball url}/overlay.nix" {})
];

home.packages = [ pkgs.nix-tree ];
```

  Paths default to $HOME/.nix-profile and /var/run/current-system.
