Worktrees[1] are a feature of git which allow you to check out a ref in a different directory. While playing around with flakes I realized that git repositories in a worktree checkout break when trying to build a flake: ``` $ git worktree add ../nixpkgs-flakes nixpkgs-flakes $ cd ../nixpkgs-flakes $ nix build .#hello error: opening directory '/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs-flakes/.git/refs/heads': Not a directory ``` This issue has been fixed by determining with `git rev-parse --git-common-dir` where the actual `.git` directory is. Please note that this issue only exists on the `flakes` branch, fetching worktree checkouts with Nix master seems to work fine. [1] https://git-scm.com/docs/git-worktree |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
