raito b8cb7abcf0 chore: rebrand Nix to Lix when it makes sense
Here's my guide so far:

$ rg '((?!(recursive).*) Nix
(?!(daemon|store|expression|Rocks!|Packages|language|derivation|archive|account|user|sandbox|flake).*))'
-g '!doc/' --pcre2

All items from this query have been tackled. For the documentation side:
that's for lix-project/lix#162.

Additionally, all remaining references to github.com/NixOS/nix which
were not relevant were also replaced.

Fixes: lix-project/lix#148.
Fixes: lix-project/lix#162.

Examples

  • Create the lock file for the flake in the current directory:

    # nix flake lock
    warning: creating lock file '/home/myself/repos/testflake/flake.lock':
    • Added input 'nix':
        'github:NixOS/nix/9fab14adbc3810d5cc1f88672fde1eee4358405c' (2023-06-28)
    • Added input 'nixpkgs':
        'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/3d2d8f281a27d466fa54b469b5993f7dde198375' (2023-06-30)
    
  • Add missing inputs to the lock file for a flake in a different directory:

    # nix flake lock ~/repos/another
    warning: updating lock file '/home/myself/repos/another/flake.lock':
    • Added input 'nixpkgs':
        'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/3d2d8f281a27d466fa54b469b5993f7dde198375' (2023-06-30)
    

    Note

    When trying to refer to a flake in a subdirectory, write ./another instead of another. Otherwise Lix will try to look up the flake in the registry.

Description

This command adds inputs to the lock file of a flake (flake.lock) so that it contains a lock for every flake input specified in flake.nix. Existing lock file entries are not updated.

If you want to update existing lock entries, use nix flake update
