NixOS:master ← d-brasher:init-revolver
opened 05:11PM - 15 Jul 24 UTC
## Description of changes
[Revolver](https://github.com/molovo/revolver) is a… simple script for the ZSH shell showing a progress spinner.
Although the last commit is 4 years old, it is a dependency of [zunit](https://github.com/zunit-zsh/zunit) (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/328451), a testing framework for ZSH projects (for example some ZSH plugins), that I'm planning to package next (mainly to enable testing of such still unpackaged but quite popular plugins).
Since this is my first PR here, I appreciate any critics, as I try to follow the best practices :tm: as closely as possible.
