Before using comin, i have been actually using the auto-upgrade module for years! Basically, comin “just” provides more features (and a lot more are planned).

 lewo | hexa: for simple use cases, it is not better than system.autoUpgrade. On your example, differences are: | 06:02:26 |
| lewo | * hexa: for simple use cases, it is not better than system.autoUpgrade. On your example, differences are:
- comin doesn't support yet reboot
- comin doesn't allow a branch "hard reset" (currenlty this is not true when your restart comin)

| lewo | The major features this first version of comin brings are multiple remotes and testing branches. Thes features allowed me to use comin on my laptop while i didn't find autoUpgrade suitable for this use case. | 06:07:04 |

 parallel21 | I use nixos-rebuild switch --flake... to deploy my nix config to a remote host. I am looking for a way to take a file I have "my-config.toml" and write it to the host. What's the "nix" way of doing this? Writing the file to the nix-store and then using systemd to create a symlink if I want it referenced in a specific folder | 17:32:00 |

| K900 | * Yes | 17:32:43 |
| K900 | Unless the folder is /etc, in which case use environment.etc | 17:32:51 |
| parallel21 | Might you know of an example of this somewhere? | 17:35:02 |
| K900 | What's the path? | 17:35:50 |
| parallel21 | Thanks in the least for confirming my suspicion. | 17:36:19 |
| parallel21 | /var/lib/rancher/k3s/server/manifests | 17:36:25 |
| K900 | Use systemd.tmpfiles.rules then | 17:37:03 |
| parallel21 | Like
systemd.tmpfiles.rules = [
"L+ /var/lib/rancher/k3s/server/manifests - - - - ${bootstrapFile}"
];
}```

}
| 17:41:01 |
| K900 | Yes | 17:46:45 |
| parallel21 | 🙌 That was much simpler than I anticipated – pretty clean too | 17:59:35 |
| parallel21 | Thanks! | 17:59:35 |
