refactor documentation of operators, document `+` for strings and paths
|
|
Updated docs to delete build users and group
|
|
this makes the table less unwieldy, and leaves enough space for
extensive explanations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
add notes on semantics where appropriate
|
|
this form is much easier to maintain (also with minimal diffs), and
allows for more details on each operator.
this change a purely mechanical transformation, without changing any contents.
|
|
this is for a simpler transformation into a series of subsections
|
|
|
|
antiquotation -> string interpolation

Make `./mk/run-test.sh` work by itself; add `mk/debug-test.sh`

This makes 'nix develop' set the Linux personality in the same way
that the actual build does, allowing a command like 'nix develop
nix#devShells.i686-linux.default' on x86_64-linux to work correctly.

a store derivation is not a store path itself, it has a store path.
|
|
|

First, logic is consolidated in the shell script instead of being spread
between them and makefiles. That makes understanding what is going on a
little easier.
This would not be super interesting by itself, but it gives us a way to
debug tests more easily. *That* in turn I hope is much more compelling.
See the updated manual for details.

- `title` value will be added to the HTML <title> - here</title>
- `git-repository-url` adds a link to the GitHub repo in the top right corner
- `edit-url-template` adds an edit link, inviting contributions

this is to help reading the diagrams, otherwise arrows and labels were
reported as being ambiguous.

Update uninstall guide involving systemd
|
|
refactor rendering documentation of options
|
|
this is a follow-up on e7dcacb.
most links are relative and this should not be too much of a detriment.
|
|
this avoids incorrect rendering on the man pages, since `lowdown`
neither parses the anchor syntax nor HTML.
this should rather be fixed in lowdown, as adding more anchors
would otherwise produce ever more noise and error-prone repetition.

* docs: Use secret-key-files when demonstrating post-build-hooks
The docs used to recommend calling `nix store sign` in a post-build
hook, but on more recent versions of nix, this results in unsigned
store paths being copied into binary caches. See
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/6960 for details.
Instead, use the `secret-key-files` config option, which signs all
locally-built derivations with the private key.

These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:
- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.
If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.
|
|
|
|
this makes more obvious what the code produces, and the structure of the
output easier to change
|
|
this is where it belongs and can be found together with the other
options.
