Per the old FIXME, this flag was on too many commands, and mostly ignored. Now it is just on the commands where it actually has an effect. Per https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7261, I would still like to get rid of it entirely, but that is a separate project. This change should be good with or without doing that. |
