build/http_archive_deb: introduce

This adds a new repo rule which is essentially an extended version of
http_archive specifically for extracting Debian packages into repos.
http_archive can extract these, but only the outer AR layer which
leaves you with a data.tar.xyz and control.tar.xyz which is not what you
want most of the time.

This rule does that first step, but then figures out the respective file
extensions and extracts both of the tarballs, with the control tarball
going into a "debian" subdirectory. This allows grabbing files from the
archive directly.

Monogon Monorepo

This is the main repository containing the source code for the Monogon Platform.

This is pre-release software - take a look, and check back later! In the meantime, join us on Matrix (#monogon-os-community:matrix.org) or Discord.

Environment

Our build environment is self-contained and requires only minimal host dependencies:

  • A Linux machine or VM.
  • Bazelisk >= v1.15.0 (or a working Nix environment).
  • git to check out modules.
  • python3 to generate the workspace status to stamp.
  • A reasonably recent kernel, user namespaces are recommended for performance reasons.
  • Working KVM with access to /dev/kvm (if you want to run tests).

Our docs assume that Bazelisk is available as bazel on your PATH.

Refer to SETUP.md for detailed instructions.

Monogon OS

The source code lives in //metropolis (Metropolis is the codename of Monogon OS).

See the //metropolis/README.md for a developer quick start guide, or see the Monogon OS Handbook for user documentation.
