lib/test.nix relies on `fileset.toSource` which creates a source dir
with the files of interest. `testers.shellcheck` passes all the files in
the source dir to shellcheck. The issue is related to relative path
sourcing, i.e. `source ./lib.sh` where shellcheck cannot make any
assumptions about the working directory.
Options were:
1) Disable this warning with a directive
Prior disabling in the tree:
- pkgs/tools/nix/info/info.sh
- nixos/modules/testing/test-instrumentation.nix
2) Set source-path to SCRIPTDIR with a directive
https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck/wiki/Directive#source-path
Even though we don't enable external script following for shellcheck
with `-x` flag given every file in the source dir is passed, this
directive seems to capture the intent to help shellcheck a bit
better.
Went with option 2.
After RFC-0125 implementation, Determinate Systems was pinged multiple
times to transfer the repository ownership of the tooling to a
vendor-neutral repository.
Unfortunately, this never manifested. Additionally, the leadership of
the NixOS project was too dysfunctional to deal with this sort of
problem. It might even still be the case up to this day.
Nonetheless, nixpkgs is about enabling end users to enact their own
policies. It would be better to live in a world where there is one
obvious choice of bootspec tooling, in the meantime, we can live in a
world where people can choose their bootspec tooling.
The Lix forge possess one fork of the Bootspec tooling:
https://git.lix.systems/lix-community/bootspec which will live its own
life from now on.

systemd-repart can be configured to not automatically issue BLKDISCARD commands
to the underlying hardware.
This PR exposes this option in the repart module.
The systemd.tmpfiles.settings.<name>.<path>.<type>.argument option may
contain arbitrary strings. This could allow intentional or unintentional
introduction of new configuration lines.
The argument field cannot be quoted, C‐style \xNN escape sequences are
however permitted. By escaping whitespace and newline characters, the
issue can be mitigated.
Format all Nix files using the officially approved formatter,
making the CI check introduced in the previous commit succeed:
nix-build ci -A fmt.check
This is the next step of the of the [implementation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixfmt/issues/153)
of the accepted [RFC 166](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/166).
This commit will lead to merge conflicts for a number of PRs,
up to an estimated ~1100 (~33%) among the PRs with activity in the past 2
months, but that should be lower than what it would be without the previous
[partial treewide format](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/322537).
Merge conflicts caused by this commit can now automatically be resolved while rebasing using the
[auto-rebase script](8616af08d9/maintainers/scripts/auto-rebase).
If you run into any problems regarding any of this, please reach out to the
[formatting team](https://nixos.org/community/teams/formatting/) by
pinging @NixOS/nix-formatting.
Previously, all generations for the primary system profile
read their data from the currently active one rather than
their own path, and specialisations in general all used
their parent bootspec rather than their own. This fixes both issues.
This commit still uses the parent path's build date for
specialisations, but this is more minor issue and the times
shouldn't be meaningfully different in most cases anyways.
Some upstream systemd units are conditionally installed into the systemd
output, so we must make sure the feature that enables their installation
is enabled on our side prior to trying to use them.
