-  <listitem><para>Binary patching.  When upgrading components using
-  pre-built binaries (through nix-pull / nix-channel), Nix can
-  automatically download and apply binary patches to already installed
-  components instead of full downloads.  Patching is “smart”: if there
-  is a <emphasis>sequence</emphasis> of patches to an installed
-  component, Nix will use it.  Patches are currently generated
-  automatically between Nixpkgs (pre-)releases.</para></listitem>

-  <listitem><para>Metadata on files in the Nix store is canonicalised
-  after builds: the last-modified timestamp is set to 0 (00:00:00
-  1/1/1970), the mode is set to 0444 or 0555 (readable and possibly
-  executable by all; setuid/setgid bits are dropped), and the group is
-  set to the default.  This ensures that the result of a build and an
-  installation through a substitute is the same; and that timestamp
-  dependencies are revealed.</para></listitem>
