The targets I could find.
2023-01-10doc/manual: Introduce @docroot@ as a stable base for includable snippetsRobert Hensing
This way the links are clearly within the manual (ie not absolute paths), while allowing snippets to reference the documentation root reliably, regardless of at which base url they're included.
2023-01-10manual: Check linksRobert Hensing
mdbook-linkcheck is not consistent about its warning setting. It disables some warnings, but not the warnings about lack of fragment checking support; hence the extra filtering.

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.
2023-01-05reorder columnsValentin Gagarin
this is for a simpler transformation into a series of subsections

2022-12-23nix develop: Set personalityEelco Dolstra
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.

2022-12-21update description of "store derivation" in installables sectionValentin Gagarin
a store derivation is not a store path itself, it has a store path.
2022-12-21define "store derivation"Valentin Gagarin
2022-12-21Make `./mk/run-test.sh` work by itself; add `mk/debug-test.sh`John Ericson
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.
