At the moment, I'm snapshotting pkgs.racket-lang.org but not updating
packages from the main distribution.  That is, I start with the main
distribution of regular Racket 7.6 and add packages on top, but I don't
change any existing ones.

I think I can change the first example in the README to just

    raco pkg config --set catalogs \
        https://racksnaps.defn.io/snapshots/2020/05/01/catalog/ \
        https://pkgs.racket-lang.org \
        https://planet-compats.racket-lang.org

without changing the behavior.
