2021-12-04	launchd: Set NumberOfFiles to 4096	Zhong Jianxin
	The default maxfiles on macOS 11 and macOS 12 is 256, which is too low for nix to work: ``` $ launchctl limit maxfiles maxfiles 256 unlimited ``` Set NumberOfFiles of nix-daemon to 4096 to avoid `Too many open files` error.

2020-09-16	Fix the nix-daemon Mac OS SSL CA cert	Marwan Aljubeh
	Mac OS multi-user installations are currently broken because all requests made by nix-daemon to the binary cache fail with: ``` unable to download ... Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?) (77). ``` This change ensures that the nix-daemon knows where to find the SSL CA cert file. Fixes #2899 and #3261.
2019-10-09	Make nix-daemon.plist less fragile on macOS	Dan Callahan
	We're calling `wait4path` on the full, resolved `@bindir@/nix-daemon` path. That means we're hardcoding something like: /bin/wait4path /nix/store/zs9c5xhp3zv9p23qnjxp87nl5injsi1i-nix-2.3/bin/nix-daemon && /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/nix-daemon That seems unnecessarily fragile. It might be better to wait4path on the path we intend to call.
2019-10-08	Copy instead of linking launch agent	Matthew Bauer
	On Catalina, the /nix filesystem might not be mounted at start time. To avoid this service not starting, we need to keep the launch agent outside of the Nix store. A wait4pid will hold for our /nix dir to be mounted. Fixes #3125.
2019-09-02	Fix launchd program args	Matthew Bauer
	launchd has some weird syntx. Apparently the program needs to be in the ProgramArguments, as Program appears to be ignored.
2019-08-27	Use wait4path on org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist	Matthew Bauer
	When using a volume, the nix-daemon path may not exist. To avoid this issue, we must use the wait4path tool. This should solve one of the issues in multi-user on macOS Catalina.
2019-02-09	nix-daemon: add variable to disable fork safety	Daiderd Jordan
	Since macOS 10.14 this has become an error, causing problems if the nix-daemon loads nix during substitution (this is a forked process). Workaround for #2523.
2018-02-28	launchd: enable keepalive for the nix-daemon service	Daiderd Jordan
	Without this the daemon won't be restarted if the process ever dies, for example when sending a SIGHUP to reload nix.conf.
2017-06-12	Provide a builtin default for $NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE	Eelco Dolstra
	This is mostly to ensure that when Nix is started on macOS via a launchd service or sshd (for a remote build), it gets a certificate bundle.
2017-05-05	Figure out the user's home directory if $HOME is not set	Eelco Dolstra

2017-03-05	nix-daemon.plist: Set XDG_CACHE_HOME	Shea Levy

2016-10-13	SSL_CERT_FILE -> NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE	Eelco Dolstra
	This prevents collisions with the "native" OpenSSL, in particular on OS X. Fixes #921.
2016-08-12	launchd: Set $SSL_CERT_FILE	Eelco Dolstra
	Otherwise in particular https://cache.nixos.org won't work in the daemon.
2014-11-04	Typo	Eelco Dolstra

2014-11-04	Add a launchd configuration file to run nix-daemon	Eelco Dolstra
