2021-11-04docs: Correct fallback user config pathJan Tojnar
This is in line with XDG Base Directory Specification, where ~/.config is supposed to be used when XDG_CONFIG_HOME is unset. It also better matches the reality, where ~/.config/nix.conf does not seem to be used.

2021-07-27Fix the generation of nix3 manpagesregnat
- Separate the generation of the manpages from their installation - Make sure that `make` generates the manpages - Make sure that `make install` installs them Fix #5051
2021-07-19Cleanup the generation of the nix3 manpagesregnat
Use a dedicated make target for the man page rather than bundling the generation as part of `install`. Also make sure that `make install` is a fixpoint by - Removing the generated markdown files from `MANUAL_SRCS` - Not having the manpage generation write in its source directory so as to not update its timestamp (it would run each time otherwise)

The previous wording seemed to imply that the "channel:" syntax would resolve to a github archive URL, which is not the case.

2021-05-05doc: builtins: use a definition listAlyssa Ross
This looks a lot better (and is also more semantically meaningful). Since this list is generated in a Nix expression, I don't think using HTML here is going to be the thing that puts people off modifying this part of the documentation!
