+/* Store paths have the following form:
+
+   <store>/<h>-<name>
+
+   where
+
+   <store> = the location of the Nix store, usually /nix/store
+   
+   <name> = a human readable name for the path, typically obtained
+     from the name attribute of the derivation, or the name of the
+     source file from which the store path is created
+     
+   <h> = base-32 representation of the first 160 bits of a SHA-256
+     hash of <s>; the hash part of the store name
+     
+   <s> = the string "<type>:sha256:<h2>:<store>:<name>";
+     note that it includes the location of the store as well as the
+     name to make sure that changes to either of those are reflected
+     in the hash (e.g. you won't get /nix/store/<h>-name1 and
+     /nix/store/<h>-name2 with equal hash parts).
+     
+   <type> = one of:
+     "text:<r1>:<r2>:...<rN>"
+       for plain text files written to the store using
+       addTextToStore(); <r1> ... <rN> are the references of the
+       path.
+     "source"
+       for paths copied to the store using addToStore() when recursive
+       = true and hashAlgo = "sha256"
+     "output:out"
+       for either the outputs created by derivations, OR paths copied
+       to the store using addToStore() with recursive != true or
+       hashAlgo != "sha256" (in that case "source" is used; it's
+       silly, but it's done that way for compatibility).
+
+   <h2> = base-16 representation of a SHA-256 hash of:
+     if <type> = "text:...":
+       the string written to the resulting store path
+     if <type> = "source":
+       the serialisation of the path from which this store path is
+       copied, as returned by hashPath()
+     if <type> = "output:out":
+       for non-fixed derivation outputs:
+         the derivation (see hashDerivationModulo() in
+         primops.cc)
+       for paths copied by addToStore() or produced by fixed-output
+       derivations:
+         the string "fixed:out:<rec><algo>:<hash>:", where
+           <rec> = "r:" for recursive (path) hashes, or "" or flat
+             (file) hashes
+           <algo> = "md5", "sha1" or "sha256"
+           <hash> = base-16 representation of the path or flat hash of
+             the contents of the path (or expected contents of the
+             path for fixed-output derivations)
+
+   It would have been nicer to handle fixed-output derivations under
+   "source", e.g. have something like "source:<rec><algo>", but we're
+   stuck with this for now...
+
+   The main reason for this way of computing names is to prevent name
+   collisions (for security).  For instance, it shouldn't be feasible
+   to come up with a derivation whose output path collides with the
+   path for a copied source.  The former would have a <s> starting with
+   "output:out:", while the latter would have a <2> starting with
+   "source:".
