pass arguments to subprocess

[crabdancing]

Would be nice to have some way to pass arbitrary (unparsed) arguments to a child process in full.

For sure - I should try to improve this.

Currently as a workaround I'll normally do something like the following (source in my main nix repo):

  nupdate = pog {
    name = "nupdate";
    arguments = [{ name = "attribute"; }];
    description = "my lazy helper function to update an attribute in my nix repo";
    script = ''
      ${prev.nix-update}/bin/nix-update --build --flake --use-update-script "$@"
    '';
  };

Then you can pass through args/flags by ending flags to the pog tool with --:

nupdate -- python312Packages.nicegui --commit

which passes through python312Packages.nicegui --commit to the underlying nix-update command
