Joachim Breitner	e2af11ce07	Manpages: Do not refer to nixpkgs-channels ... Unless I am misinformed, using the `nixpkgs` repository directly is now preferred?	2020-05-23 15:26:59 +02:00
Jonas Chevalier	895516cadf	add NIX_USER_CONF_FILES ... Motivation: maintain project-level configuration files. Document the whole situation a bit better so that it corresponds to the implementation, and add NIX_USER_CONF_FILES that allows overriding which user files Nix will load during startup.	2020-04-14 18:45:06 +02:00
Kevin Stock	cea05e5ee7	docs: correct default location of log directory	2019-11-04 16:23:03 -05:00

Dmitry Kalinkin	75ec68f93a	manual: mention the "channel:" shorthand for NIX_PATH ... Bumped to 15.09 because older channels, when downloaded from nixos.org, require firefox to be accessed via `pkgs.firefox`	2019-03-25 20:55:28 -04:00
Spencer Baugh	e5432574e2	document ability to set NIX_REMOTE=unix://path/to/socket	2018-01-31 22:47:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	d7653dfc6d	Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD ... This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment variables predate nix.conf. The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote). The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now.	2017-05-01 17:30:16 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra	2fad86f361	Remove $NIX_DB_DIR ... This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.	2016-08-10 18:05:35 +02:00
