This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose
children may need them. Fixing one issue at a time, so postponing.

It is required for the sandbox, which is a libstore responsibility;
not just libmain.

Using libstore without loading the config file is risky, as sqlite
may then be misconfigured. See https://github.com/cachix/cachix/issues/475
* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs
99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:
- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note
- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
per-definition docs
Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.
Picking up from #8133
* Fix two things from comments
* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`
* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs
This will render correctly.
This is non-breaking change in the to-JSON direction. This *is* a
breaking change in the from-JSON direction, but we don't care, as that
is brand new in this PR.
`nix show-derivation --help` currently has the sole public documentation
of this format, it is updated accordingly.
This function returns true or false depending on whether the Nix client
is trusted or not. Mostly relevant when speaking to a remote store with
a daemon.
We include this information in `nix ping store` and `nix doctor`

switch statements must now match all enum values or disable the
warning.
Explicit is good. This has helped us find two bugs, after solving
another one by debugging.
From now on, adding to an enum will raise errors where they are
not explicitly handled, which is good for productivity, and helps
us decide the correct behavior in all usages.
Notably still excluded from this though are the cases where the
warning is disabled by local pragmas.
fromTOML.cc did not build despite a top-level pragma, so I've had
to resort to a makefile solution for that.
Prior to this, there was an ad-hoc whitelist in `main.cc`. Now, every
command states its stability.
In a future PR, we will adjust the manual to take advantage of this new
information in the JSON.
(It will be easier to do that once we have some experimental feature
docs to link too; see #5930 and #7798.)
The code is not local-store-specific, so we should share it with all
stores. More uniform behavior is better, and a less store-specific
functionality is more maintainable.
This fixes a FIXME added in f73d911628 by @edolstra himself.
Documentation on "classic" commands with many sub-commands are
notoriously hard to discover due to lack of overview and anchor links.
Additionally the information on common options and environment variables
is not accessible offline in man pages, and therefore often overlooked
by readers.
With this change, each sub-command of nix-store and nix-env gets its
own page in the manual (listed in the table of contents), and each own
man page.
Also, man pages for each subcommand now (again) list common options
and environment variables. While this makes each page quite long and
some common parameters don't apply, this should still make it easier
to navigate as that additional information was not accessible on the
command line at all.
It is now possible to run 'nix-store --<subcommand> --help` to display
help pages for the given subcommand.
