So I recently saw it the first time in the wild, I liked that you get
interactively asked about the nix.conf settings from the flake, but
there were a few minor things that I'd like to see changed:
* The `(y/N)` was somewhere in the middle of the line. Moved it to
the end. At first I assumed it was a bug because another thread into
my terminal while I was answering the question.
* I had to say no four times for a single flake with two options. So if
you already know you don't want any of the config for _this_ flake, I
found a `No to all` switch that ignores the rest of the nix.conf
settings a little more ergonomic than having to stop the invocation,
looking up the exact wording of `--no-accept-flake-config` and
restarting it. Hence, I added it.
* Added a note where the choices which settings to trust are persisted.
My initial assumption was that this went into `nix.conf` which is not
writable on NixOS, so I said no there as well.

If `accept-flake-config` is set to `ask` and a `flake.nix` defines `nixConfig`,
|
|
Lix will ask on the CLI which of these settings should be used for the command.
|
|
|
|
Now, it's possible to answer with `N` (as opposed to `n` to only reject the setting
|
|
that is asked for) to reject _all untrusted_ entries from the flake's `nixConf`
|
|
section.
