whenever nixpkgs updates the dix diff for my nixos config is quite large because of all the package amount changes which i don't really care as much about as actual version changes. similarly for unselected vs selected packages (although they are bolded i still find it quite difficult to see all of them at a glance).
any thoughts on categorizing the output differently? maybe separating amount changes from version changes (although i'm not sure how you'd handle when both change for the same package)? or allowing the user to filter stuff out or organize it differently?
i imagine i could rig something up myself using the json output but i figured i'd get your thoughts on it first (i would submit a pr too but i've still never written any Rust so it seems scary lol i should really get to learning it sometime)
