Alexander Schmolck afd9bd787d Also use long options in src/nix/*.md 2023-05-17 08:10:30 +01:00
Valentin Gagarin 2af9fd20c6 clarify definition of "installable"
the term was hard to discover, as its definition and explanation were in
a very long document lacking an overview section.
search did not help because it occurs so often.

- clarify wording in the definition
- add an overview of installable types
- add "installable" to glossary
- link to definition from occurrences of the term
- be more precise about where store derivation outputs are processed
- installable Nix expressions must evaluate to a derivation

Docs: Add nix develop --command entry
Add example of nix develop being used to execuate a series of script
commands. This is common when doing things like CI/CD, and should be
represented in the official documentation.

Also useful for people looking for the 'nix develop' equivalent of
'nix-shell --run'.
