[https://github.com/nix-community/nixpkgs-update nixpkgs-update] is used by [[r-ryantm]] for automated updates (through creating [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=is%3Apr%20author%3Ar-ryantm update pull requests]).
It uses package repository information from Repology.org (though that requires other projects to detect the update), the GitHub releases API, and - if available - the package <code>passthru.updateScript</code>. For more information, see the [https://nix-community.github.io/nixpkgs-update/ official documentation].
