* New command `nix-copy-closure' to copy a closure to a Nix store on
  another machine through ssh.  E.g.,

    $ nix-copy-closure xyzzy $(which svn)

  copies the closure of Subversion to machine `xyzzy'.  This is like
  `nix-pack-closure $(which svn) | ssh xyzzy', but it's much more
  efficient since it only copies those paths that are missing on the
  target machine.
