forked from lix-project/lix
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.

reintroduce shortened `-E` form for `--expr` to new CLI | 605 | Lunaphied | Improvements |
In the old CLI, it was possible to supply a shorter -E
flag instead of fully
specifying --expr
every time you wished to provide an expression that would
be evaluated to produce the given command's input. This was retained for the
--file
flag when the new CLI utilities were written with -f
, but -E
was
dropped.
We now restore the -E
short form for better UX. This is most useful for
nix eval
but most any command that takes an Installable argument should benefit
from it as well.
