Travis A. Everett ba9a8c4b3d install-darwin: track mount permission edge-case fix
Same as 1fd127a068, but applied to a
code path (volume_pass_works -> verify_volume_pass) that the reporting
user didn't hit and wasn't able to trigger manually. I am not certain
but I suspect it will be easier to add prophylactically than to debug
if its absence causes trouble some day.

Nicolas Mattia 44b7d104b4 Document usage of MANPATH in nix-profile.sh
While trying to figure out how `nix-env`/`nix profile` work I had a hard
time understand how man pages were being installed.

Took me quite some time to figure this out, thought it might be useful
to others too!

Travis A. Everett 1fd127a068 install-darwin: fix mount permission edge-case
Fixes #6122, which reports a problem with trying to run the installer
under another user (probably: user is not the disk "owner" and thus
can't mount the volume).

Travis A. Everett bdb5e03821 install-darwin: dodge bash 3.2 command bug
The script is trying to find chown in a cross-platform-like
way, but there's some sort of deficiency in `command -p` in
the default macOS bash 3.2. It looks like it will just use
whatever PATH is already set, instead of the "default" path.

This attempts to hard-set a PATH via `getconf PATH`. It will
just set an empty PATH if that fails for some reason. A
properly-functioning `command -p` should not care what we
set the PATH to here one way or the other.

Hopefully fixes #5768.

Travis A. Everett 3bf7a868ee darwin-install: nail down diskutil
Same purpose as de9efa3b79af7886fcf2a67b6ce97d4f96a57421

For some unclear reason, we get occasional reports from people who do
not have /usr/sbin on their PATH that the installer fails. It's a
standard part of the PATH, so I have no clue what they're doing to
remove it--but it's also fairly cheap to avoid.

regnat 5f64b69d23 Add a github cron to check the hydra status
Add a regular github action that will check the status of the latest
hydra evaluation.

Things aren’t ideal right now because this job will only notify “the
user who last modified the cron syntax in the workflow file” (so myself
atm). But at least that’ll give a notification for failing hydra jobs

Travis A. Everett 69431edbc1 installer: clarify starting assumption task

Travis A. Everett abdf9f2a6e darwin-install: fix already-mounted store volumes
This adds an explicit unmount of the store volume to avoid cases
where the installer can hang in await_volume when:
- the user already has a store volume
- that volume is already mounted somewhere other than /nix
- they do not take a path through the installer that results in an
  explicit unmount (as both removing and encrypting the volume
  would do)

Jan Van Bruggen 7d56174c1e
Reword "we"s to "I"s for consistency
This script uses multiple forms of the first-person POV:
1. "We" to refer to the Nix team (1e7c796e66/scripts/install-multi-user.sh (L72))
2. "We" to refer to the combination of the installation script & the user/executor (1e7c796e66/scripts/install-multi-user.sh (L710))
3. "We" to refer to the installation script alone (1e7c796e66/scripts/install-multi-user.sh (L602))
4. "I" to refer to the installation script alone (1e7c796e66/scripts/install-multi-user.sh (L200))

Since I prefer POV 4 to POV 3, this changes all instances of POV 3 to POV 4.

Anders Kaseorg 447350fe0e installer: Do not use echo -e in #!/bin/sh script
ShellCheck correctly warns:

In scripts/install-nix-from-closure.sh line 218:
                echo -e "\nif [ -e $p ]; then . $p; fi # added by Nix installer" >> "$fn"
                     ^-- SC3037: In POSIX sh, echo flags are undefined.

In scripts/install-nix-from-closure.sh line 229:
                echo -e "\nif [ -e $p ]; then . $p; fi # added by Nix installer" >> "$fn"
                     ^-- SC3037: In POSIX sh, echo flags are undefined.

Indeed, this actually breaks on Ubuntu where /bin/sh is dash.

Fixes #5458.

Travis A. Everett bf2ee3c565 install: fix addVolume perm issue for some users
As reported in #5198, volume creation can fail with a permission error
for some macOS users (probably secondary user accounts?) Sudo appears
to be sufficient to avoid this.

While I'm here, I also updated the sudo invocation added in 079bde2ae
to use the _sudo explanation wrapper.

Matthew Bauer 959c2af557 Revert "Use /etc/zshenv instead of /etc/zshrc for profile"
This reverts commit 909d8cb293.

This messes up PATH priority since /etc/profile gets sourced AFTER
/etc/zshenv and it sets the system paths so
$HOME/.nix-profile/bin:/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin is behind
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin. See discussion in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/4169.
