Description of changes

syshud (formerly known as "sysvol") is a GTK4 volume indicator, similar to packages like wob, avizo, or swayosd. built for wayland and pipewire (or pulse -- if you pass PULSEAUDIO=1 to makeFlags -- but it can only be built for one or the other). nix-build -A syshud and run the binary, then adjust the system volume externally, and you should see an overlay like as shown on the project's readme.

Seems like the -v argument is broken:

should be fixed now; it would normally get these from git, so needed leaveDotGit = true i plumbed the rev and version fields from the nix expression through to git_info.hpp

$ sysvol -v
