Used with Fossil. Expects `url` to a Fossil archive, `rev`, and `hash`.

## `fetchcvs` {#fetchcvs}

Used with CVS. Expects `cvsRoot`, `tag`, and `hash`.

## `fetchhg` {#fetchhg}

Used with Mercurial. Expects `url`, `rev`, and `hash`.

A number of fetcher functions wrap part of `fetchurl` and `fetchzip`. They are mainly convenience functions intended for commonly used destinations of source code in Nixpkgs. These wrapper fetchers are listed below.

## `fetchFromGitea` {#fetchfromgitea}

`fetchFromGitea` expects five arguments. `domain` is the gitea server name. `owner` is a string corresponding to the Gitea user or organization that controls this repository. `repo` corresponds to the name of the software repository. These are located at the top of every Gitea HTML page as `owner`/`repo`. `rev` corresponds to the Git commit hash or tag (e.g `v1.0`) that will be downloaded from Git. Finally, `hash` corresponds to the hash of the extracted directory. Again, other hash algorithms are also available but `hash` is currently preferred.

## `fetchFromGitHub` {#fetchfromgithub}

`fetchFromGitHub` expects four arguments. `owner` is a string corresponding to the GitHub user or organization that controls this repository. `repo` corresponds to the name of the software repository. These are located at the top of every GitHub HTML page as `owner`/`repo`. `rev` corresponds to the Git commit hash or tag (e.g `v1.0`) that will be downloaded from Git. If you need to fetch a tag however, you should prefer to use the `tag` parameter which achieves this in a safer way with less boilerplate. Finally, `hash` corresponds to the hash of the extracted directory. Again, other hash algorithms are also available, but `hash` is currently preferred.

To use a different GitHub instance, use `githubBase` (defaults to `"github.com"`).

`fetchFromGitHub` uses `fetchzip` to download the source archive generated by GitHub for the specified revision. If `leaveDotGit`, `deepClone` or `fetchSubmodules` are set to `true`, `fetchFromGitHub` will use `fetchgit` instead. Refer to its section for documentation of these options.

## `fetchFromGitLab` {#fetchfromgitlab}

This is used with GitLab repositories. It behaves similarly to `fetchFromGitHub`, and expects `owner`, `repo`, `rev`, and `hash`.

To use a specific GitLab instance, use `domain` (defaults to `"gitlab.com"`).


## `fetchFromGitiles` {#fetchfromgitiles}

This is used with Gitiles repositories. The arguments expected are similar to `fetchgit`.

## `fetchFromBitbucket` {#fetchfrombitbucket}

This is used with BitBucket repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to `fetchFromGitHub` above.

## `fetchFromSavannah` {#fetchfromsavannah}

This is used with Savannah repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to `fetchFromGitHub` above.

## `fetchFromRepoOrCz` {#fetchfromrepoorcz}

This is used with repo.or.cz repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to `fetchFromGitHub` above.

## `fetchFromSourcehut` {#fetchfromsourcehut}

This is used with sourcehut repositories. Similar to `fetchFromGitHub` above,
it expects `owner`, `repo`, `rev` and `hash`, but don't forget the tilde (~)
in front of the username! Expected arguments also include `vc` ("git" (default)
or "hg"), `domain` and `fetchSubmodules`.

If `fetchSubmodules` is `true`, `fetchFromSourcehut` uses `fetchgit`
