-<filename><replaceable>sysconfdir</replaceable>/nix/nix.conf</filename>
-(i.e. <filename>/etc/nix/nix.conf</filename> on most systems), or
-<filename>$NIX_CONF_DIR/nix.conf</filename> if
-<envar>NIX_CONF_DIR</envar> is set. Values loaded in this file are not forwarded to the Nix daemon. The
-client assumes that the daemon has already loaded them.

-<para>User-specific configuration files:</para>

-
-  The default location is <filename>$HOME/.config/nix.conf</filename> if
-  those environment variables are unset.
-</para>

-<para>The configuration files consist of
-<literal><replaceable>name</replaceable> =
-<replaceable>value</replaceable></literal> pairs, one per line. Other
-files can be included with a line like <literal>include
-<replaceable>path</replaceable></literal>, where
-<replaceable>path</replaceable> is interpreted relative to the current
-conf file and a missing file is an error unless
-<literal>!include</literal> is used instead.
-Comments start with a <literal>#</literal> character.  Here is an
