As part of the effort tracked at https://t4ccer.com/arewehackersyet/ to package most tools available in kali in nixpkgs to make it a viable choice for pentesting I noticed nix-init doesn't work on any of the gitlab urls.
I havn't been able to find out why, since the url seems correct and is reachable, so I must suspect a bug.
Example:
Trying with https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/packages/wifi-honey results in this error:
shell ❯ nix-init -u https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/packages/wifi-honey
Enter tag or revision (defaults to kali/1.0-1kali3)
❯ kali/1.0-1kali3
Enter version
❯ 1.0-1kali3
Enter pname
❯ wifi-honey

I've tried a few other packages and got the same error, let me know if there is a workaround or this can be fixed.
