ca4d8ce9e2 doc: De-emphasize nix-env without -A
The manual uses `nix-env -i` without `-A` prominently, teaching a bad practice to newcomers.

e96faadcd6 Fix XDG_CONFIG_DIRS fallback
According to XDG Base Directory Specification,
it should fall back to /etc/xdg when the env var is not present.

docs: Correct fallback user config path
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.

f35f9af787 Improve explanation of NIX_PATH prefix syntax
The previous wording seemed to imply that the "channel:" syntax would resolve to
a github archive URL, which is not the case.

doc: builtins: use a definition list
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!

31313d1401 Replace the trailing markdown spaces by a backslash
They are equivalent according to
<https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#hard-line-breaks>,
and the trailing spaces tend to be a pain (because the make git
complain, editors tend to want to remove them − the `.editorconfig`
actually specifies that − etc..).

distributed builds: load remote builder host key from the machines file
This is already used by Hydra, and is very useful when materializing
a remote builder list from service discovery. This allows the service
discovery tool to only sync one file instead of two.

Respect command registrations in plugins. 2021-02-24 08:25:45 -05:00

Initialize plugins after handling initial command line flags
This is technically a breaking change, since attempting to set plugin
files after the first non-flag argument will now throw an error. This
is acceptable given the relative lack of stability in a plugin
interface and the need to tie the knot somewhere once plugins can
actually define new subcommands.
