2023-06-10 | nix actually needs c++20 now | Jörg Thalheim | |
2023-05-17 | Convert short nix options to long ones | Alexander Schmolck | |
e.g. nix-env -e subversion => nix-env --uninstall subversion The aim is to make the documentation less cryptic for newcomers and the long options are more self-documenting. The change was made with the following script: <https://github.com/aschmolck/convert-short-nix-opts-to-long-ones> and sanity checked visually. | |||
2023-05-15 | refactor: Join commands to remove files | Victor Engmark | |
2023-05-15 | docs: Mention more files referenced by the installer | Victor Engmark | |
`/etc/bash.bashrc` is backed up as `/etc/bash.bashrc.backup-before-nix`, but since other changes might have been introduced in the meantime we can't just tell the user to revert. | |||
2023-05-15 | docs: Remove references to non-existing files | Victor Engmark | |
At least on Ubuntu 22.04, these files are not created as part of a multi- user installation. | |||
2023-05-15 | docs: Sort files by name | Victor Engmark | |
2023-05-15 | docs: Remove Nix profile content from correct directory | Victor Engmark | |
At least on Ubuntu 22.04, the Nix installer creates `/etc/profile.d/nix.sh`, not `/etc/profile/nix.sh`. | |||
2023-05-15 | docs: Remove redundant uninstall command | Victor Engmark | |
`sudo systemctl disable nix-daemon.socket nix-daemon.service` removes these files already. | |||
2023-04-28 | move uninstall instructions to a separate page | Valentin Gagarin | |
placed in a subsection of the binary install, the instructions are hard to find. putting them in a separate page that is shown in the table of contents should make it easier for users to find what they need when they need it. | |||
2023-04-18 | Update installing-binary.md | Michael Utz | |
2023-03-17 | Add a setting for configuring the SSL certificates file | Eelco Dolstra | |
This provides a platform-independent way to configure the SSL certificates file in the Nix daemon. Previously we provided instructions for overriding the environment variable in launchd, but that obviously doesn't work with systemd. Now we can just tell users to add ssl-cert-file = /etc/ssl/my-certificate-bundle.crt to their nix.conf. | |||

2023-01-16 | Expand installation.md | Ana Hobden | |
Changes the `quick-start.md` to recommend a multi-user install, since single-user is not supported on MacOS and https://nixos.org/download.html recommends multi-user. Expands `installation.md` to reflect wording on https://nixos.org/download.html | |||

2022-06-30 | doc: acknowledge post-rsync reality | Travis A. Everett | |
Before #5150 the copy-to-store phase of the install was idempotent, but the recursive cp isn't. This is probably baiting a few people into trying corrective installs that will fail. | |||

2022-02-26 | doc: Add removal of darwin-store LaunchDaemon | toonn | |
The uninstall instructions used to accidentally remove the nix-darwin LaunchDaemon, this was dropped. However, the original intent was to remove the Store volume mounting LaunchDaemon. | |||

2022-02-25 | doc: Add macOS uninstall note about /nix | toonn | |
Clarify that `/nix` being present after the uninstall is normal and it will only disappear after a reboot. Co-authored-by: Travis A. Everett <travis.a.everett@gmail.com> | |||
2022-02-22 | doc: Add detailed uninstall section for macOS | toonn | |
The multi-user installation on macOS, which is now the only option, has gotten complicated enough that it discourages some users from checking Nix out for fear of being left with a "dirty" system. Detailed uninstallation instructions should make this less of an issue. | |||
