Don't mix up nix and nixos:

nix: the C executable (managing the store and the builds)
nixpkgs: the .nix files describing all packages
nixos: the .nix files describing how to use the packages to build a
    running linux operating system.

Currently nix is on github, but nixpkgs, nixos aren't AFAIK.
