If an entry in the list is a directory, all files in the directory are loaded as plugins (non-recursively). )"}; Setting<std::set<ExperimentalFeature>> experimentalFeatures{this, {}, "experimental-features", "Experimental Nix features to enable."}; bool isExperimentalFeatureEnabled(const ExperimentalFeature &); void requireExperimentalFeature(const ExperimentalFeature &); Setting<size_t> narBufferSize{this, 32 * 1024 * 1024, "nar-buffer-size", "Maximum size of NARs before spilling them to disk."}; Setting<bool> allowSymlinkedStore{ this, false, "allow-symlinked-store", R"( If set to `true`, Nix will stop complaining if the store directory (typically /nix/store) contains symlink components.

Problems occur if those builds are then deployed to machines where /nix/store resolves to a different location from that of the build machine.
