This does not add missing release notes, and it doesn't do anything
about the profiles feature we would really like to have so we can have
consistent credit.

Previously, evaluating an expression that throws an error in the debugger would
|
|
enter a second, nested debugger:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nix-repl> builtins.throw "what"
|
|
error: what
|
|
|
|
|
|
Starting REPL to allow you to inspect the current state of the evaluator.

|
Welcome to Nix 2.18.1. Type :? for help.
|
|
|
|
nix-repl>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, it just prints the error message like `nix repl`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nix-repl> builtins.throw "what"
|
|
error:
|
|
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
|
|
at «string»:1:1:
|
|
1| builtins.throw "what"
|
|
| ^
|
|
|
|
error: what
|
|
```
