From 66e94d3275e9a0a549c28b7d0ad5f3f897e2fbf0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eelco Dolstra Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2004 10:30:20 +0000 Subject: * Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g., default -> default-94-link default-82-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... default-83-link -> /nix/store/caeec8... ... default-94-link -> /nix/store/2896ca... experimental -> experimental-2-link experimental-1-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... experimental-2-link -> /nix/store/a3148f... * `--profile' / `-p' -> `--switch-profile' / `-S' * `--link' / `-l' -> `--profile' / `-p' * The default profile is stored in $prefix/var/nix/profiles. $prefix/var/nix/links is gone. Profiles can be stored anywhere. * The current profile is now referenced from ~/.nix-profile, not ~/.nix-userenv. * The roots to the garbage collector now have extension `.gcroot', not `.id'. --- src/nix-env/help.txt | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/nix-env/help.txt') diff --git a/src/nix-env/help.txt b/src/nix-env/help.txt index f1419cdf7..3832f1655 100644 --- a/src/nix-env/help.txt +++ b/src/nix-env/help.txt @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ Operations: The previous operations take a list of derivation names.
