Given one or -more Nix store paths on the local -machine, nix-copy-closure computes the closure of -those paths (i.e. all their dependencies in the Nix store), and copies -all paths in the closure to the remote machine via the -ssh (Secure Shell) command. With the -, the direction is reversed: -the closure of paths on a remote machine is -copied to the Nix store on the local machine. - -This command is efficient because it only sends the store paths -that are missing on the target machine. - -Since nix-copy-closure calls -ssh, you may be asked to type in the appropriate -password or passphrase. In fact, you may be asked -twice because nix-copy-closure -currently connects twice to the remote machine, first to get the set -of paths missing on the target machine, and second to send the dump of -those paths.
