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)
- This can legitimately happen (for example because of a non-determinism
causing a build-time dependency to be kept or not as a runtime
reference)
- Because of older Nix versions, it can happen that we encounter a
realisation with an (erroneously) empty set of dependencies, in which
case we don’t want to fail, but just warn the user and try to fix it.
Fill `NIX_CONFIG` with the value of the current Nix configuration before
calling the nix subprocesses in the repl
That way the whole configuration (including the possible
`experimental-features`, a possibly `--store` option or whatever) will
be made available.
This is required for example to make `nix repl` work with a custom
`--store`
Fill `NIX_CONFIG` with the value of the current Nix configuration before
calling the post-build-hook.
That way the whole configuration (including the possible
`experimental-features`, a possibly `--store` option or whatever) will
be made available to the hook
'--delete-older-than 10' deletes the generations older than a single day, and '--delete-older-than 12m' deletes all generations older than 12 days.
This changes makes it throw on those invalid inputs, and gives an example of a valid input.
We need to support it for the “old” fetch* functions for backwards
compatibility, but we don’t need it for fetchTree (as it’s a new
function).
Given that changing the `name` messes-up the content hashing, we can
just forbid passing a custom `name` argument to it
Fixes this random failure:
error: hash mismatch in fixed-output derivation '/tmp/nix-shell.EUgAVU/nix-test/tests/check/store/sfps3l3c5n7dabpx34kigxnfhmrwk2h6-dummy.drv':

which happens because multiple tests were writing to ./dummy.
