# Stale bot information
- Thanks for your contribution!
- To remove the stale label, just leave a new comment.
- _How to find the right people to ping?_ &rarr; [`git blame`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-blame) to the rescue! (or GitHub's history and blame buttons.)
- You can always ask for help on [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/) or on [Matrix - #nix:nixos.org](https://matrix.to/#/#nix:nixos.org).
## Suggestions for PRs
1. GitHub sometimes doesn't notify people who commented / reviewed a PR previously, when you (force) push commits. If you have addressed the reviews you can [officially ask for a review](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from those who commented to you or anyone else.
2. If it is unfinished but you plan to finish it, please mark it as a draft.
3. If you don't expect to work on it any time soon, closing it with a short comment may encourage someone else to pick up your work.
4. To get things rolling again, rebase the PR against the target branch and address valid comments.
5. If you need a review to move forward, ask in [the Discourse thread for PRs that need help](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/prs-in-distress/3604).
6. If all you need is a merge, check the git history to find and [request reviews](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from people who usually merge related contributions.
## Suggestions for issues
1. If it is resolved (either for you personally, or in general), please consider closing it.
2. If this might still be an issue, but you are not interested in promoting its resolution, please consider closing it while encouraging others to take over and reopen an issue if they care enough.
3. If you still have interest in resolving it, try to ping somebody who you believe might have an interest in the topic. Consider discussing the problem in [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/).
4. As with all open source projects, your best option is to submit a Pull Request that addresses this issue. We :heart: this attitude!
**Memorandum on closing issues**
Don't be afraid to close an issue that holds valuable information. Closed issues stay in the system for people to search, read, cross-reference, or even reopen--nothing is lost! Closing obsolete issues is an important way to help maintainers focus their time and effort.

## Making changes to Nix
1. Search for related issues that cover what you're going to work on.
It could help to mention there that you will work on the issue.
Issues labeled [good first issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/good%20first%20issue) should be relatively easy to fix and are likely to get merged quickly.
Pull requests addressing issues labeled [idea approved](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/idea%20approved) or [RFC](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/RFC) are especially welcomed by maintainers and will receive prioritised review.
If you are proficient with C++, addressing one of the [popular issues](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Areactions-%2B1-desc) will be highly appreciated by maintainers and Nix users all over the world.
For far-reaching changes, please investigate possible blockers and design implications, and coordinate with maintainers before investing too much time in writing code that may not end up getting merged.
If there is no relevant issue yet and you're not sure whether your change is likely to be accepted, [open an issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/new/choose) yourself.
2. Check for [pull requests](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pulls) that might already cover the contribution you are about to make.
There are many open pull requests that might already do what you intend to work on.
You can use [labels](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels) to filter for relevant topics.
3. Check the [Nix reference manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/contributing/hacking.html) for information on building Nix and running its tests.
For contributions to the command line interface, please check the [CLI guidelines](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/contributing/cli-guideline.html).
4. Make your change!
5. [Create a pull request](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request) for your changes.
* Clearly explain the problem that you're solving.
Link related issues to inform interested parties and future contributors about your change.
If your pull request closes one or multiple issues, mention that in the description using `Closes: #<number>`, as it will then happen automatically when your change is merged.
* Make sure to have [a clean history of commits on your branch by using rebase](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-rebase-and-update-a-pull-request).
* [Mark the pull request as draft](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/changing-the-stage-of-a-pull-request) if you're not done with the changes.
6. Do not expect your pull request to be reviewed immediately.
Nix maintainers follow a [structured process for reviews and design decisions](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/tree/master/maintainers#project-board-protocol), which may or may not prioritise your work.
Following this checklist will make the process smoother for everyone:
- [ ] Fixes an [idea approved](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/idea%20approved) issue
- [ ] Tests, as appropriate:
- Functional tests [`tests/functional/**.sh`](./tests/functional)

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
your programs, too.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
these things.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/or modify the software.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
that program using a modified version of the Library.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
be combined with the library in order to run.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
in the event an application does not supply such function or
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
it.
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Library.
collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange.
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
received the program in object code or executable form with such
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
parties remain in full compliance.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
least three years, to give the same user the materials
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the

Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.

original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the

infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
ordinary General Public License).
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

Foundation, Inc.
This file is free documentation; the Free Software Foundation gives
unlimited permission to copy, distribute and modify it.
Basic Installation
==================
These are generic installation instructions.
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
debugging `configure').
It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. (Caching is
disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
cache files.)
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
be considered for the next release. If you are using the cache, and at
some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
may remove or edit it.
The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
`configure' by a program called `autoconf'. You only need
`configure.ac' if you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using
a newer version of `autoconf'.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
`./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
`sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
`configure' itself.
Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some
messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make' to compile the package.
3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
the package.
4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
documentation.
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
with the distribution.
Compilers and Options
=====================
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
the `configure' script does not know about. Run `./configure --help'
for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
by setting variables in the command line or in the environment. Here
is an example:
./configure CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix
*Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
Compiling For Multiple Architectures
====================================
You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH'
variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a
time in the source code directory. After you have installed the
package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring
for another architecture.
Installation Names
==================
By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
option `--prefix=PATH'.
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular
kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
you can set and what kinds of files go in them.
If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
Optional Features
=================
Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
package recognizes.
For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
Specifying the System Type
==========================
There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
will run on. Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
_same_ architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
`--build=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
OS KERNEL-OS
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
need to know the machine type.
If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
produce code for.
If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
Sharing Defaults
================
If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the
`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
Defining Variables
==================
Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
environment passed to `configure'. However, some packages may run
configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
variables may be lost. In order to avoid this problem, you should set
them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'. For example:
./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
will cause the specified gcc to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
overridden in the site shell script).
`configure' Invocation
======================
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
operates.
`--help'
`-h'
Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
`--version'
`-V'
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
script, and exit.
`--cache-file=FILE'
Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
traditionally `config.cache'. FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
disable caching.
`--config-cache'
`-C'
Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
`--quiet'
`--silent'
`-q'
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
messages will still be shown).
`--srcdir=DIR'
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
`configure' can determine that directory automatically.
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. Run
`configure --help' for more details.

To produce a `stable' release from the trunk:
0. Make sure that the trunk builds in the release supervisor.
1. Branch the trunk, e.g., `svn cp .../trunk
.../branches/0.5-release'.
2. Switch to the branch, e.g., `svn switch .../branches/0.5-release'.
3. In `configure.ac', change `STABLE=0' into `STABLE=1' and commit.
4. In the release supervisor, add a one-time job to build
`.../branches/0.5-release'.
5. Make sure that the release succeeds.
6. Move the branch to a tag, e.g., `svn mv .../branches/0.5-release
.../tags/0.5'.
Note that the branch should not be used for maintenance; it should
be deleted after the release has been created. A maintenance
branch (e.g., `.../branches/0.5') should be created from the
original revision of the trunk (since maintenance releases should
also be tested first; hence, we cannot have `STABLE=1'). The same
procedure can then be followed to produce maintenance release; just
substitute `.../branches/VERSION' for the trunk.
7. Switch back to the trunk.
8. Bump the version number in `configure.ac' (in AC_INIT).

The man-pages generated from the DocBook documentation are ugly.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Generations properly form a tree. E.g., if after switching to
generation 39, we perform an installation action, a generation
43 is created which is a descendant of 39, not 42. So a
rollback from 43 ought to go back to 39. This is not
currently implemented; generations form a linear sequence.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Unify the concepts of successors and substitutes into a
general notion of <emphasis>equivalent expressions</emphasis>.
Expressions are equivalent if they have the same target paths
with the same identifiers. However, even though they are
functionally equivalent, they may differ stronly with respect
to their <emphasis>performance characteristics</emphasis>.
For example, realising a closure expression is more efficient
that realising the derivation expression from which it was
produced. On the other hand, distributing sources may be more
efficient (storage- or bandwidth-wise) than distributing
binaries. So we need to be able to attach weigths or
priorities or performance annotations to expressions; Nix can
then choose the most efficient expression dependent on the
context.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<emphasis>Build management.</emphasis> In principle it is already
possible to do build management using Nix (by writing builders that
perform appropriate build steps), but the Nix expression language is
not yet powerful enough to make this pleasant (?). The language should
be extended with features from the <ulink
url='http://www.cs.uu.nl/~eelco/maak/'>Maak build manager</ulink>.
Another interesting idea is to write a <command>make</command>
implementation that uses Nix as a back-end to support <ulink
url='http://www.research.att.com/~bs/bs_faq.html#legacy'>legacy</ulink>
build files.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The current garbage collector is a hack. It should be
integrated into <command>nix-store</command>. It should
delete derivations in an order determined by topologically
sorting derivations under the points-to relation. This
ensures that no store paths ever exist that point to
non-existant store paths.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
There are race conditions between the garbage collector and
other Nix tools. For instance, when we run
<command>nix-env</command> to build and install a derivation
and run the garbage collector at the same time, the garbage
collector may kick in exactly between the build and
installation steps, i.e., before the newly built derivation
has become reachable from a root of the garbage collector.
</para>
<para>
One solution would be for these programs to properly register
temporary roots for the collector. Another would be to use
stop-the-world garbage collection: if any tool is running, the
garbage collector blocks, and vice versa. These solutions do
not solve the situation where multiple tools are involved,
e.g.,
<screen>
$ nix-store -r $(nix-instantiate foo.nix)</screen>
since even if <command>nix-instantiate</command> where to
register a temporary root, it would be released by the time
<command>nix-store</command> is started. A solution would be
to write the intermediate value to a file that is used as a
root to the collector, e.g.,
<screen>
$ nix-instantiate foo.nix > /nix/var/nix/roots/bla
$ nix-store -r $(cat /nix/var/nix/roots/bla)</screen>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
For security, <command>nix-push</command> manifests should be
digitally signed, and <command>nix-pull</command> should
verify the signatures. The actual NAR archives in the cache
do not need to be signed, since the manifest contains
cryptographic hashes of these files (and
<filename>fetchurl.nix</filename> checks them).

<title>Obtaining Nix</title>
<para>
The easiest way to obtain Nix is to download a <ulink
url='http://www.cs.uu.nl/groups/ST/Trace/Nix'>source
distribution</ulink>. RPMs for SuSE and Red Hat are also
available. These distributions are generated automatically.
</para>
<para>
Alternatively, the most recent sources of Nix can be obtained from its
<ulink url='https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/nix/trunk'>Subversion
repository</ulink>. For example, the following command will check out
the latest revision into a directory called <filename>nix</filename>:
</para>
<screen>
$ svn checkout https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/nix/trunk nix</screen>
<para>
Likewise, specific releases can be obtained from the <ulink
url='https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/nix/tags'>tags
directory</ulink> of the repository. If you don't have Subversion, you
can also download an automatically generated <ulink
url='https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/dist/trace/'>compressed
tar-file</ulink> of the head revision of the trunk.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1>
<title>Prerequisites</title>
<para>
The following prerequisites only apply when you build from
source. Binary releases (e.g., RPMs) have no prerequisites.
</para>
<para>
A fairly recent version of GCC/G++ is required. Version 2.95
and higher should work.
</para>
<para>
To build this manual and the man-pages you need the
<command>xmllint</command> and <command>xsltproc</command>
programs, which are part of the <literal>libxml2</literal> and
<literal>libxslt</literal> packages, respectively. You also
need the <ulink
url='http://docbook.sourceforge.net/projects/xsl/'>DocBook XSL
stylesheets</ulink> and optionally the <ulink
url='http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbook-xml-4.2.zip'>
DocBook XML 4.2 DTD</ulink>. Note that these are only required
if you modify the manual sources or when you are building from
the Subversion repository.
</para>
<para>
To build the parser, very <emphasis>recent</emphasis> versions
of Bison and Flex are required. (This is because Nix needs GLR
support in Bison and reentrancy support in Flex.) For Bison,
you need version 1.875c or higher (1.875 does
<emphasis>not</emphasis> work), which can be obtained from the
<ulink url='ftp://alpha.gnu.org/pub/gnu/bison'>GNU FTP
server</ulink>. For Flex, you need version 2.5.31, which is
available on <ulink
url='http://lex.sourceforge.net/'>SourceForge</ulink>. Slightly
older versions may also work, but ancient versions like the
ubiquitous 2.5.4a won't. Note that these are only required if
you modify the parser or when you are building from the
Subversion repository.
</para>
<para>
Nix uses Sleepycat's Berkeley DB and CWI's ATerm library. These
are included in the Nix source distribution. If you build from
the Subversion repository, you must download them yourself and
place them in the <filename>externals/</filename> directory.
See <filename>externals/Makefile.am</filename> for the precise
URLs of these packages.

<title>Building Nix from source</title>
<para>
After unpacking or checking out the Nix sources, issue the following
commands:
</para>
<screen>
$ ./configure <replaceable>options...</replaceable>
$ make
$ make install</screen>
<para>
When building from the Subversion repository, these should be preceded by
the command:
</para>
<screen>
$ autoreconf -i</screen>
<para>
The installation path can be specified by passing the
<option>--prefix=<replaceable>prefix</replaceable></option> to
<command>configure</command>. The default installation directory is
<filename>/nix</filename>. You can change this to any location you like.
You must have write permission to the <replaceable>prefix</replaceable>
path.
</para>
<warning>
<para>
It is advisable <emphasis>not</emphasis> to change the installation
prefix from its default, since doing so will in all likelihood make it
impossible to use derivations built on other systems.
</para>
</warning>
<para>
If you want to rebuilt the documentation, pass the full path to the
DocBook XML catalog file (<filename>docbook.cat</filename>) and to the
DocBook XSL stylesheets using the
<option>--with-docbook-catalog=<replaceable>path</replaceable></option>
and <option>--with-docbook-xsl=<replaceable>path</replaceable></option>
options.

<title>Installing from RPMs</title>
<para>
RPM packages of Nix can be downloaded from <ulink
url='http://www.cs.uu.nl/groups/ST/Trace/Nix' />. These RPMs
should work for most fairly recent releases of SuSE and Red Hat
Linux. They have been known to work work on SuSE Linux 8.1 and
9.0, and Red Hat 9.0. In fact, it should work on any RPM-based
Linux distribution based on <literal>glibc</literal> 2.3 or
later.
</para>
<para>
Once downloaded, the RPMs can be installed or upgraded using
<command>rpm -U</command>. For example,
</para>
<screen>
rpm -U nix-0.5pre664-1.i386.rpm</screen>
<para>
The RPMs install into the directory <filename>/nix</filename>.
Nix can be uninstalled using <command>rpm -e nix</command>.
After this it will be necessary to manually remove the Nix store
and other auxiliary data:
</para>
<screen>
rm -rf /nix/store
rm -rf /nix/var</screen>
</sect1>
<sect1>
<title>Permissions</title>
<para>
All Nix operations must be performed under the user ID that owns
the Nix store and database
(<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/store</filename>
and
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/var/nix/db</filename>,
respectively). When installed from the RPM packages, these
directories are owned by <systemitem
class='username'>root</systemitem>.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1>
<title>Using Nix</title>
<para>
To use Nix, some environment variables should be set. In
particular, <envar>PATH</envar> should contain the directories
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/bin</filename> and
<filename>~/.nix-profile/bin</filename>. The first directory
contains the Nix tools themselves, while
<filename>~/.nix-profile</filename> is a symbolic link to the
current <emphasis>user environment</emphasis> (an automatically
generated package consisting of symlinks to installed packages).
The simplest way to set the required environment variables is to
include the file
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/etc/profile.d/nix.sh</filename>
in your <filename>~/.bashrc</filename> (or similar), like this:
</para>
<screen>
. <replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/etc/profile.d/nix.sh</screen>

<title>Introduction</title>
<epigraph>
<para><quote>The number of Nix installations in the world has grown to 5,
with more expected.</quote></para>
</epigraph>
<para>
Nix is a system for software deployment. It supports the
creation and distribution of software packages, as well as the installation
and subsequent management of these on target machines (i.e., it is also a
package manager).
</para>
<para>
Nix solves some large problems that exist in most current deployment and
package management systems. <emphasis>Dependency determination</emphasis>
is a big one: the correct installation of a software component requires
that all dependencies of that component (i.e., other components used by it)
are also installed. Most systems have no way to verify that the specified
dependencies of a component are actually sufficient.
</para>
<para>
Another big problem is the lack of support for concurrent availability of
multiple <emphasis>variants</emphasis> of a component. It must be possible
to have several versions of a component installed at the same time, or
several instances of the same version built with different parameters.
Unfortunately, components are in general not properly isolated from each
other. For instance, upgrading a component that is a dependency for some
other component might break the latter.
</para>
<para>
Nix solves these problems by building and storing packages in paths that
are infeasible to predict in advance. For example, the artifacts of a
package <literal>X</literal> might be stored in
<filename>/nix/store/d58a0606ed616820de291d594602665d-X</filename>, rather
than in, say, <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. The path component
<filename>d58a...</filename> is actually a cryptographic hash of all the
inputs (i.e., sources, requisites, and build flags) used in building
<literal>X</literal>, and as such is very fragile: any change to the inputs
will change the hash. Therefore it is not sensible to
<emphasis>hard-code</emphasis> such a path into the build scripts of a
package <literal>Y</literal> that uses <literal>X</literal> (as does happen
with <quote>fixed</quote> paths such as <filename>/usr/lib</filename>).
Rather, the build script of package <literal>Y</literal> is parameterised
with the actual location of <literal>X</literal>, which is supplied by the
Nix system.
</para>
<para>
As stated above, the path name of a file system object contain a
cryptographic hash of all inputs involved in building it. A change to any
of the inputs will cause the hash to change--and by extension, the path
name. These inputs include both sources (variation in time) and
configuration options (variation in space). Therefore variants of the same
package don't clash---they can co-exist peacefully within the same file
system.
</para>
<para>
Other features:
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Transparent source/binary deployment.</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Unambiguous identification of configuration.</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Automatic storage management.</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Atomic upgrades and rollbacks.</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Support for many simultaneous configurations.</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Portability.</emphasis> Nix is quite portable. Contrary to
build systems like those in, e.g., Vesta and ClearCase, it does not rely on
operating system extensions.

<para>
The command <command>nix-env</command> is used to manipulate Nix
user environments. User environments are sets of software
components available to a user at some point in time. In other
words, they are a synthesised view of the programs available in
the Nix store. There may be many user environments: different
users can have different environments, and individual users can
switch between different environments.
</para>
<!-- <para>
Environments are manipulated by operations such as the
installation and removal of components (hereafter called
<emphasis>derivations</emphasis>). These operations are not
destructive: rather than overwrite the current environment, they
create a new environment to which we can then atomically
<emphasis>switch</emphasis> by flipping a symlink.
</para> -->
<para>
<command>nix-env</command> takes exactly one
<emphasis>operation</emphasis> flag which indicates the
subcommand to be performed. These are documented below.

<title>Description</title>
<para>
The upgrade operation creates a new user environment, based on
the current generation of the active profile, in which all
derivations designated by <replaceable>drvnames</replaceable>
for which there are newer versions in the active Nix
expression are replaced by those newer versions. Matching
derivations for which there are no newer versions are left
untouched; this is not an error. It is also not an error if
an element of <replaceable>drvnames</replaceable> matches no
installed derivations.
</para>
<para>
If multiple derivations in the active Nix expression match an
installed derivation, the one with the highest version is
selected.

<para>
In addition to upgrading to newer versions, also
<quote>upgrade</quote> to derivations that have the same
or a lower version. I.e., derivations may actually be
downgraded depending on what is available in the active
Nix expression.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</refsection>
<refsection>
<title>Examples</title>
<screen>
$ nix-env --upgrade gcc
upgrading `gcc-3.3.1' to `gcc-3.4'
$ nix-env --upgrade pan
<lineannotation>(no upgrades available, so nothing happens)</lineannotation>
$ nix-env -u '*' <lineannotation>(try to upgrade everything)</lineannotation>
upgrading `hello-2.1.2' to `hello-2.1.3'
upgrading `mozilla-1.2' to `mozilla-1.4'</screen>
</refsection>
<refsection>
<title>Versions</title>
<para>
The upgrade operation determines whether a derivation
<varname>y</varname> is an upgrade of a derivation
<varname>x</varname> by looking at their respective
<literal>name</literal> attributes. The names (e.g.,
<literal>gcc-3.3.1</literal> are split into two parts: the
package name (<literal>gcc</literal>), and the version
(<literal>3.3.1</literal>). The version part starts after the
first dash not following by a letter. <varname>x</varname> is
considered an upgrade of <varname>y</varname> if their package
names match, and the version of <varname>y</varname> is higher
that that of <varname>x</varname>.
</para>
<para>
The versions are compared by splitting them into contiguous
components of numbers and letters. E.g.,
<literal>3.3.1pre5</literal> is split into <literal>[3, 3, 1,
"pre", 5]</literal>. These lists are then compared
lexicographically (from left to right). Corresponding
components <varname>a</varname> and <varname>b</varname> are
compared as follows. If they are both numbers, integer
comparison is used. If <varname>a</varname> is an empty
string and <varname>b</varname> is a number,
<varname>a</varname> is considered less than
<varname>b</varname>. The special string component
<literal>pre</literal> (for <emphasis>pre-release</emphasis>)
is considered to be less than other components. String
components are considered less than number components.
Otherwise, they are compared lexicographically (i.e., using
case-sensitive string comparison).
</para>
<para>
This is illustrated by the following examples:
<screen>
1.0 &lt; 2.3
2.1 &lt; 2.3
2.3 = 2.3
2.5 > 2.3
3.1 > 2.3

The Nix language provides the following built-in function
(<quote>primops</quote>):
</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><function>import</function>
<replaceable>e</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Evaluates the expression <replaceable>e</replaceable>,
which must yield a path value. The Nix expression
stored at this path in the file system is then read,
parsed, and evaluated. Returns the result of the
evaluation of the Nix expression just read.
</para>

Example: <literal>import ./foo.nix</literal> evaluates
the expression stored in <filename>foo.nix</filename>
(in the directory containing the expression in which the
<function>import</function> occurs).

This command is just a convenience to Nix expression writers.
Often a Nix expressions fetch some source distribution from the

<literal>fetchurl</literal> requires an MD5 hash. If you don't
know the hash, you would have to download the file first, and

<para>
The command <command>nix-push</command> builds a set of store
expressions (if necessary), and then packages and uploads all
store paths in the resulting closures to a server. A network
cache thus populated can subsequently be used to speed up
software deployment on other machines using the
<command>nix-pull</command> command.
</para>
<para>
<command>nix-push</command> performs the following actions.
<orderedlist>

<para>
The store expressions stored in

<literal>nix-store --realise</literal>).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
All paths in the closure of the store expressions stored
in <replaceable>paths</replaceable> are determined (using
<literal>nix-store --query --requisites
--include-successors</literal>). It should be noted that
since the <option>--include-successors</option> flag is
used, if you specify a derivation store expression, you
get a combined source/binary distribution. If you only
want a binary distribution, you should specify the closure
store expression that result from realising these (see
below).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
All store paths determined in the previous step are
packaged and compressed into a <command>bzip</command>ped
NAR archive (extension <filename>.nar.bz2</filename>).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
A <emphasis>manifest</emphasis> is created that contains
information on the store paths, their eventual URLs in the
cache, and cryptographic hashes of the contents of the NAR
archives.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Each store path is uploaded to the remote directory
specified by <replaceable>archives-put-url</replaceable>.
HTTP PUT requests are used to do this. However, before a
file <varname>x</varname> is uploaded to
<literal><replaceable>archives-put-url</replaceable>/<varname>x</varname></literal>,
<command>nix-push</command> first determines whether this
upload is unnecessary by issuing a HTTP HEAD request on
<literal><replaceable>archives-get-url</replaceable>/<varname>x</varname></literal>.
This allows a cache to be shared between many partially
overlapping <command>nix-push</command> invocations.
(We use two URLs because the upload URL typically
refers to a CGI script, while the download URL just refers
to a file system directory on the server.)
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The manifest is uploaded using an HTTP PUT request to
<replaceable>manifest-put-url</replaceable>. The
corresponding URL to download the manifest can then be

</orderedlist>
</para>
</refsection>
<refsection>
<title>Examples</title>
<para>
To upload files there typically is some CGI script on the server
side. This script should be be protected with a password. The
following example uploads the store paths resulting from
building the Nix expressions in <filename>foo.nix</filename>,
passing appropriate authentication information:
<screen>
$ nix-push \
http://foo@bar:server.domain/cgi-bin/upload.pl/cache \
http://server.domain/cache \
http://foo@bar:server.domain/cgi-bin/upload.pl/MANIFEST \
$(nix-instantiate foo.nix)</screen>
This will push both sources and binaries (and any build-time
dependencies used in the build, such as compilers).
</para>
<para>
If we just want to push binaries, not sources and build-time
dependencies, we can do:
<screen>
$ nix-push <replaceable>urls</replaceable> $(nix-instantiate $(nix-store -r foo.nix))</screen>

The operation <option>--install</option> realises in the file

derivation expressions, they are first
<emphasis>normalised</emphasis> into a closure expression.
This may happen in two ways. First, the corresponding closure
expression (the <emphasis>successor</emphasis>) may already
known (either because the build has already been performed, or
because a successor was explicitly registered through the
<option>--successor</option> operation). Otherwise, the build
action described by the derivation is performed, and a closure
expression is computed by scanning the result of the build for
references to other paths in the store.

The paths of the closure expression corresponding to each
expression in <replaceable>paths</replaceable> is printed on

This operation should almost never be called directly, since no

inconsistent system. Deletion of paths in the store is done by the

<para>
Prints out the <emphasis>output paths</emphasis> of the
store expressions indicated by the identifiers
<replaceable>args</replaceable>. In the case of a
derivation expression, these are the paths that will be
produced when the derivation is realised. In the case
of a closure expression, these are the paths that were
produced the derivation expression of which the closure

</para>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--requisites</option> / <option>-R</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Prints out the requisite paths of the store expressions
indicated by the identifiers
<replaceable>args</replaceable>. The requisite paths of
a Nix expression are the paths that need to be present
in the system to be able to realise the expression.
That is, they form the <emphasis>closure</emphasis> of
the expression in the file system (i.e., no path in the
set of requisite paths points to anything outside the
set of requisite paths).
</para>
<para>
The notion of requisite paths is very useful when one
wants to distribute store expressions. Since they form a
closure, they are the only paths one needs to distribute
to another system to be able to realise the expression
on the other system.
</para>
<para>
This query is generally used to implement various kinds
of deployment. A <emphasis>source deployment</emphasis>
is obtained by distributing the requisite paths of a
derivation expression. A <emphasis>binary
deployment</emphasis> is obtained by distributing the
requisite paths of a closure expression. A
<emphasis>cache deployment</emphasis> is obtained by
distributing the requisite paths of a derivation
expression and specifying the option
<option>--include-successors</option>. This will
include not just the paths of a source and binary
deployment, but also all expressions and paths of
subterms of the source. This is useful if one wants to
realise on the target system a Nix expression that is
similar but not quite the same as the one being
distributed, since any common subterms will be reused.
</para>
<para>
This query has a number of options:
</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--exclude-exprs</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Excludes the paths of store expressions. This
causes the closure property to be lost, that is,
the resulting set of paths is not enough to ensure
realisibility.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--include-successors</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Also include the requisites of successors (normal forms).
Only the requisites of <emphasis>known</emphasis>
successors are included, i.e., the normal forms of
derivation expressions that have never been normalised will
not be included.
</para>
<para>
Note that not just the successor of a derivation expression
will be included, but also the successors of all input
expressions of that derivation expression. I.e., all
normal forms of subterms involved in the normalisation of
the top-level term are included.

Let's start from the perspective of an end user. Common operations at
this level are to install and remove packages, ask what packages are
installed or available for installation, and so on. These are operations
on the <emphasis>user environment</emphasis>: the set of packages that a
user <quote>sees</quote>. In a command line Unix environment, this means
the set of programs that are available through the <envar>PATH</envar>
environment variable. (In other environments it might mean the set of
programs available on the desktop, through the start menu, and so on.)
</para>
<para>
The terms <quote>installation</quote> and <quote>uninstallation</quote>
are used in this context to denote the act of adding or removing packages
from the user environment. In Nix, these operations are dissociated from
the physical copying or deleting of files. Installation requires that
the files constituting the package are present, but they may be present
beforehand. Likewise, uninstallation does not actually delete any files;
this is done automatically by running a garbage collector.
</para>
<para>
User environments are manipulated through the <command>nix-env</command>
command. The query operation can be used to see what packages are
currently installed.
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-env -q
MozillaFirebird-0.7
sylpheed-0.9.7
pan-0.14.2</screen>
<para>
(<option>-q</option> is actually short for <option>--query
--installed</option>.) The package names are symbolic: they don't have
any particular significance to Nix (as they shouldn't, since they are not
unique&mdash;there can be many derivations with the same name). Note that
these packages have many dependencies (e.g., Mozilla uses the
<literal>gtk+</literal> package) but these have not been installed in the
user environment, though they are present on the system. Generally,
there is no need to install such packages; only packages containing
programs should be installed.
</para>
<para>
To install packages, a <emphasis>Nix expression</emphasis> is required
that tells Nix how to build that package. There is a <ulink
url='https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/dist/trace/trace-nixpkgs-trunk.tar.bz2'>set
of standard of Nix expressions</ulink> for many common packages.
Assuming that you have downloaded and unpacked these, you can view the
set of available packages:
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-env -qaf pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix
gettext-0.12.1
sylpheed-0.9.7
aterm-2.0
gtk+-1.2.10
apache-httpd-2.0.48
pan-0.14.2
...</screen>
<para>
The Nix expression in the file <filename>i686-linux.nix</filename> yields
the set of packages for a Linux system running on x86 hardware. For
other platforms, copy and modify this file for your platform as
appropriate. [TODO: improve this]
</para>
<para>
It is also possible to see the <emphasis>status</emphasis> of available
packages, i.e., whether they are installed into the user environment
and/or present in the system:
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-env -qasf pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix
-P gettext-0.12.1
IP sylpheed-0.9.7
-- aterm-2.0
-P gtk+-1.2.10</screen>
<para>
This reveals that the <literal>sylpheed</literal> package is already
installed, or more precisely, that exactly the same instantiation of
<literal>sylpheed</literal> is installed. This guarantees that the
available package is exactly the same as the installed package with
regard to sources, dependencies, build flags, and so on. Similarly, we
see that the <literal>gettext</literal> and <literal>gtk+</literal>
packages are present but not installed in the user environment, while the
<literal>aterm</literal> package is not installed or present at all (so,
if we were to install it, it would have to be built or downloaded first).
</para>
<para>
The install operation is used install available packages from a Nix
environment. To install the <literal>pan</literal> package (a
newsreader), you would do:
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-env -if pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix pan</screen>
<para>
Since installation may take a long time, depending on whether any
packages need to be built or downloaded, it's a good idea to make
<command>nix-env</command> run verbosely by using the <option>-v</option>
(<option>--verbose</option>) option. This option may be repeated to
increase the level of verbosity. A good value is 3
(<option>-vvv</option>).
</para>
<para>
In fact, if you run this command verbosely you will observe that Nix
starts to build many packages, including large and fundamental ones such
as <literal>glibc</literal> and <literal>gcc</literal>. I.e., you are
performing a source installation. This is generally undesirable, since
installation from sources may require large amounts of disk and CPU
resources. Therefore a <quote>binary</quote> installation is generally
preferable.
</para>
<para>
Rather than provide different mechanisms to create and perform
the installation of binary packages, Nix supports binary deployment
<emphasis>transparently</emphasis> through a generic mechanism of
<emphasis>substitute expressions</emphasis>. If an request is made to
build some Nix expression, Nix will first try to build any substitutes
for that expression. These substitutes presumably perform an identical
build operation with respect to the result, but require less resources.
For instance, a substitute that downloads a pre-built package from the
network requires less CPU and disk resources, and possibly less time.
</para>
<para>
Nix's use of cryptographic hashes makes this entirely safe. It is not
possible, for instance, to accidentally substitute a build of some
package for a Solaris or Windows system for a build on a SuSE/x86 system.
</para>
<para>
While the substitute mechanism is a generic mechanism, Nix provides two
standard tools called <command>nix-pull</command> and
<command>nix-push</command> that maintain and use a shared cache of
prebuilt derivations on some network site (reachable through HTTP). If
you attempt to install some package that someone else has previously
built and <quote>pushed</quote> into the cache, and you have done a
<quote>pull</quote> to register substitutes that download these prebuilt
packages, then the installation will automatically use these.
</para>
<para>
For example, to pull from our <ulink
url='http://losser.st-lab.cs.uu.nl/~eelco/nix-dist/'>cache</ulink> of
prebuilt packages (at the time of writing, for SuSE Linux/x86), use the
following command:
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-pull http://catamaran.labs.cs.uu.nl/dist/nix/nixpkgs-<replaceable>version</replaceable>/MANIFEST
obtaining list of Nix archives at http://catamaran.labs.cs.uu.nl/dist/nix/nixpkgs-<replaceable>version</replaceable>/MANIFEST...
...</screen>
<para>
If <command>nix-pull</command> is run without any arguments, it will pull
from the URLs specified in the file
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/etc/nix/prebuilts.conf</filename>.
</para>
<para>
Assuming that the <literal>pan</literal> installation produced no errors,
it can be used immediately, that is, it now appears in a directory in the
<envar>PATH</envar> environment variable. Specifically,
<envar>PATH</envar> includes the entry
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/var/nix/profiles/default/bin</filename>,
where
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/var/nix/profiles/default</filename>
is just a symlink to the current user environment:
</para>
<screen>
$ ls -l /nix/var/nix/profiles/
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eelco ... default-15-link -> /nix/store/1871...12b0-user-environment
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eelco ... default-16-link -> /nix/store/59ba...df6b-user-environment
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eelco ... default -> default-16-link</screen>
<para>
That is, <filename>default</filename> in this example is a link
to <filename>default-16-link</filename>, which is the current
user environment. Before the installation, it pointed to
<filename>default-15-link</filename>. Note that this means that
you can atomically roll-back to the previous user environment by
pointing the symlink <filename>default</filename> at
<filename>default-15-link</filename> again. This also shows
that operations such as installation are atomic in the Nix
system: any arbitrarily complex set of installation,
uninstallation, or upgrade actions eventually boil down to the
single operation of pointing a symlink somewhere else (which can
be implemented atomically in Unix).
</para>
<para>
What's in a user environment? It's just a set of symlinks to the files
that constitute the installed packages. For instance:
</para>
<screen>
$ ls -l /nix/var/nix/profiles/default-16-link/bin
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eelco ... MozillaFirebird -> /nix/store/35f8...4ae6-MozillaFirebird-0.7/bin/MozillaFirebird
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eelco ... svn -> /nix/store/3829...fb5d-subversion-0.32.1/bin/svn
...</screen>
<para>
Note that, e.g., <filename>svn</filename> =
<filename>/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/svn</filename> =
<filename>/nix/var/nix/profiles/default-16-link/bin/svn</filename> =
<filename>/nix/store/59ba...df6b-user-environment/bin/svn</filename> =
<filename>/nix/store/3829...fb5d-subversion-0.32.1/bin/svn</filename>.
</para>
<para>
Naturally, packages can also be uninstalled:
</para>
<screen>
$ nix-env -e pan</screen>
<para>
This means that the package is removed from the user
environment. It is <emphasis>not</emphasis> yet removed from
the system. When a package is uninstalled from a user
environment, it may still be used by other packages, or may
still be present in other user environments. Deleting it under
such conditions would break those other packages or user
environments. To prevent this, packages are only
<quote>physically</quote> deleted by running the Nix garbage
collector, which searches for all packages in the Nix store that
are no longer <quote>reachable</quote> from outside the store.
Thus, uninstalling a package is always safe: it cannot break
other packages.
</para>
<para>
Upgrading packages is easy. Given a Nix expression that
contains newer versions of installed packages (that is, packages
with the same package name, but a higher version number),
<command>nix-env -u</command> will replace the installed package
in the user environment with the newer package. For example,
<screen>
$ nix-env -uf pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix pan</screen>
looks for a newer version of Pan, and installs it if found.
Also useful is the ability to upgrade <emphasis>all</emphasis>
packages:
<screen>
$ nix-env -uf pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix '*'</screen>
The asterisk matches all installed packages<footnote><para>No,
we don't support arbitrary regular
expressions</para></footnote>. Note that <literal>*</literal>
must be quoted to prevent shell globbing.

<title>A simple Nix expression</title>
<para>
This section shows how to write simple Nix expressions&mdash;the things
that describe how to build a package.
</para>
<example id='ex-hello-nix'>
<title>Nix expression for GNU Hello</title>
<programlisting>
{stdenv, fetchurl, perl}: <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-1' />
derivation { <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-2' />
name = "hello-2.1.1"; <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-3' />
system = stdenv.system; <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-4' />
builder = ./builder.sh; <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-5' />
src = fetchurl { <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-6' />
url = ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/gnu/hello/hello-2.1.1.tar.gz;
md5 = "70c9ccf9fac07f762c24f2df2290784d";
};
stdenv = stdenv; <co id='ex-hello-nix-co-7' />
perl = perl;
}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>
A simple Nix expression is shown in <xref linkend='ex-hello-nix' />. It
describes how to the build the <ulink
url='http://www.gnu.org/directory/GNU/hello.html'>GNU Hello
package</ulink>. This package has several dependencies. First, it
requires a number of other packages, such as a C compiler, standard
Unix shell tools, and Perl. Rather than have this Nix expression refer
to and use specific versions of these packages, it should be generic;
that is, it should be a <emphasis>function</emphasis> that takes the
required packages as inputs and yield a build of the GNU Hello package
as a result. This Nix expression defines a function with three
arguments <xref linkend='ex-hello-nix-co-1' />, namely:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para><varname>stdenv</varname>, which should be a
<emphasis>standard environment package</emphasis>. The standard
environment is a set of tools and other components that would be
expected in a fairly minimal Unix-like environment: a C compiler
and linker, Unix shell tools, and so on.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem><para><varname>fetchurl</varname>, which should be a
function that given parameters <varname>url</varname> and
<varname>md5</varname>, will fetch a file from the specified
location and check that this file has the given MD5 hash code.
The hash is required because build operations must be
<emphasis>pure</emphasis>: given the same inputs they should
always yield the same output. Since network resources can change
at any time, we must in some way guarantee what the result will
be.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem><para><varname>perl</varname>, which should be a Perl
interpreter.</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</para>
<para>
The remainder of the file is the body of the function, which happens to
be a <emphasis>derivation</emphasis> <xref
linkend='ex-hello-nix-co-2' />, which is the built-in function
<varname>derivation</varname> applied to a set of attributes that
encode all the necessary information for building the GNU Hello
package.
</para>
<example>
<title>Build script (<filename>builder.sh</filename>) for GNU
Hello</title>
<programlisting>
#! /bin/sh
buildinputs="$perl"
. $stdenv/setup || exit 1
tar xvfz $src || exit 1
cd hello-* || exit 1
./configure --prefix=$out || exit 1
make || exit 1
make install || exit 1</programlisting>
</example>

<title>A more complex Nix expression</title>
<example id='ex-svn-nix'>
<title>Nix expression for Subversion</title>
<programlisting>
{ localServer ? false <co id='ex-svn-nix-co-1' />
, httpServer ? false
, sslSupport ? false
, swigBindings ? false
, stdenv, fetchurl
, openssl ? null, httpd ? null, db4 ? null, expat, swig ? null
}:
assert !isNull expat; <co id='ex-svn-nix-co-2' />
assert localServer -> !isNull db4;
assert httpServer -> !isNull httpd &amp;&amp; httpd.expat == expat; <co id='ex-svn-nix-co-3' />
assert sslSupport -> !isNull openssl &amp;&amp; (httpServer -> httpd.openssl == openssl);
assert swigBindings -> !isNull swig;
derivation {
name = "subversion-0.32.1";
system = stdenv.system;
builder = ./builder.sh;
src = fetchurl {
url = http://svn.collab.net/tarballs/subversion-0.32.1.tar.gz;
md5 = "b06717a8ef50db4b5c4d380af00bd901";
};
localServer = localServer;
httpServer = httpServer;
sslSupport = sslSupport;
swigBindings = swigBindings;
stdenv = stdenv;
openssl = if sslSupport then openssl else null; <co id='ex-svn-nix-co-4' />
httpd = if httpServer then httpd else null;
expat = expat;
db4 = if localServer then db4 else null;
swig = if swigBindings then swig else null;
}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>
This example shows several features. Default parameters <xref
linkend='ex-svn-nix-co-1'/> can be used to simplify call sites: if an
argument that has a default is omitted, its default value is used.
</para>
<para>
You can use <emphasis>assertions</emphasis> to test whether arguments
satisfy certain constraints. The simple assertion <xref
linkend='ex-svn-nix-co-2'/> tests whether the
<varname>expat</varname> argument is not a null value. The more
complex assertion <xref linkend='ex-svn-nix-co-3'/> says that if
Subversion is built with Apache support, then <varname>httpd</varname>
(the Apache package) must not be null and it must have been built using
the same instance of the <varname>expat</varname> library as was passed
to the Subversion expression. This is since the Subversion code is
dynamically linked against the Apache code and they both use Expat,
they must be linked against the same instance&mdash;otherwise a
conflict might occur.

// the following code matches the current page's URL against the set of redirects.
//
// it is written to minimize the latency between page load and redirect.
// therefore we avoid function calls, copying data, and unnecessary loops.
// IMPORTANT: we use stateful array operations and their order matters!
//
// matching URLs is more involved than it should be:
//
// 1. `document.location.pathname` can have an arbitrary prefix.
//
// 2. `path_to_root` is set by mdBook. it consists only of `../`s and
// determines the depth of `<path>` relative to the prefix:
//
// `document.location.pathname`
// |------------------------------|
// /<prefix>/<path>/[<file>[.html]][#<anchor>]
// |----|
// `path_to_root` has same number of path segments
//
// source: https://phaiax.github.io/mdBook/format/theme/index-hbs.html#data
//
// 3. the following paths are equivalent:
//
// /foo/bar/
// /foo/bar/index.html
// /foo/bar/index
//
// 4. the following paths are also equivalent:
//
// /foo/bar/baz
// /foo/bar/baz.html
//
let segments = document.location.pathname.split('/');
let file = segments.pop();
// normalize file name
if (file === '') { file = "index.html"; }
else if (!file.endsWith('.html')) { file = file + '.html'; }
segments.push(file);
// use `path_to_root` to discern prefix from path.
const depth = path_to_root.split('/').length;
// remove segments containing prefix. the following works because
// 1. the original `document.location.pathname` is absolute,
// hence first element of `segments` is always empty.
// 2. last element of splitting `path_to_root` is also always empty.
// 3. last element of `segments` is the file name.
//
// visual example:
//
// '/foo/bar/baz.html'.split('/') -> [ '', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz.html' ]
// '../'.split('/') -> [ '..', '' ]
//
// the following operations will then result in
//
// path = 'bar/baz.html'
//
segments.splice(0, segments.length - depth);
const path = segments.join('/');
// anchor starts with the hash character (`#`),
// but our redirect declarations don't, so we strip it.
// example:
// document.location.hash -> '#foo'
// document.location.hash.substring(1) -> 'foo'
const anchor = document.location.hash.substring(1);
const redirect = redirects[path];

synopsis: Concise error printing in `nix repl`
prs: 9928
---
Previously, if an element of a list or attribute set threw an error while
evaluating, `nix repl` would print the entire error (including source location
information) inline. This output was clumsy and difficult to parse:
```
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
{ err = «error:
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
at «string»:1:9:
1| { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
| ^
error: uh oh!»; }
```
Now, only the error message is displayed, making the output much more readable.
```
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
{ err = «error: uh oh!»; }
```
However, if the whole expression being evaluated throws an error, source
locations and (if applicable) a stack trace are printed, just like you'd expect:
```
nix-repl> builtins.throw "uh oh!"
error:
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
at «string»:1:1:
1| builtins.throw "uh oh!"
| ^
error: uh oh!
```

If the `debugger-on-trace` option is set and `--debugger` is given,
`builtins.trace` calls will behave similarly to `builtins.break` and will enter
the debug REPL. This is useful for determining where warnings are being emitted
from.

synopsis: The `--debugger` will start more reliably in `let` expressions and function calls
prs: 9917
issues: 6649
---
Previously, if you attempted to evaluate this file with the debugger:
```nix
let
a = builtins.trace "before inner break" (
builtins.break "hello"
);
b = builtins.trace "before outer break" (
builtins.break a
);
in
b
```
Nix would correctly enter the debugger at `builtins.break a`, but if you asked
it to `:continue`, it would skip over the `builtins.break "hello"` expression
entirely.
Now, Nix will correctly enter the debugger at both breakpoints.

synopsis: Functions are printed with more detail
prs: 9606
issues: 7145
---
Functions and `builtins` are printed with more detail in `nix repl`, `nix
eval`, `builtins.trace`, and most other places values are printed.
Before:
```
$ nix repl nixpkgs
nix-repl> builtins.map
«primop»
nix-repl> builtins.map lib.id
«primop-app»
nix-repl> builtins.trace lib.id "my-value"
trace: <LAMBDA>
"my-value"
$ nix eval --file functions.nix
{ id = <LAMBDA>; primop = <PRIMOP>; primop-app = <PRIMOP-APP>; }
```
After:
```
$ nix repl nixpkgs
nix-repl> builtins.map
«primop map»
nix-repl> builtins.map lib.id
«partially applied primop map»
nix-repl> builtins.trace lib.id "my-value"
trace: «lambda id @ /nix/store/8rrzq23h2zq7sv5l2vhw44kls5w0f654-source/lib/trivial.nix:26:5»
"my-value"
$ nix eval --file functions.nix
{ id = «lambda id @ /Users/wiggles/nix/functions.nix:2:8»; primop = «primop map»; primop-app = «partially applied primop map»; }
```
This was actually released in Nix 2.20, but wasn't added to the release notes
so we're announcing it here. The historical release notes have been updated as well.

synopsis: Store paths are allowed to start with `.`

Leading periods were allowed by accident in Nix 2.4. The Nix team has considered this to be a bug, but this behavior has since been relied on by users, leading to unnecessary difficulties.
From now on, leading periods are officially, definitively supported. The names `.` and `..` are disallowed, as well as those starting with `.-` or `..-`.
Nix versions that denied leading periods are documented [in the issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/912#issuecomment-1919583286).

synopsis: Nix commands respect Ctrl-C
prs: 9687 6995
issues: 7245

Previously, many Nix commands would hang indefinitely if Ctrl-C was pressed
while performing various operations (including `nix develop`, `nix flake
update`, and so on). With several fixes to Nix's signal handlers, Nix commands
will now exit quickly after Ctrl-C is pressed.
