 Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Funnily enough git itself parses file:/path/to/blah as an SCP-style path where file is the hostname | 23:36:21 |
 SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | Ah, there is that too, file:///foo has an empty host. | 23:38:30 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
that's why it's file:///etc/passwd rather than file://etc/passwd * Also file:/path/to/file is fine - though the rfc says it’s kind of less widespread and now the empty authority is preferred to the “no authority” case | 23:38:27 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | * | 23:39:27 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | OK, so say flakerefs are valid (ish) URLs as they are. What of "installables"? One refers to attributes in flake.nix as ref#path. Should there be a way to refer to the attributes in a default.nix? | 23:48:35 |
 raitobezarius | yes | 23:55:19 |
| raitobezarius | but not using # | 23:55:23 |
| raitobezarius | this was a large mistake | 23:55:29 |

| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | Do you have a specific proposal in mind? | 00:11:20 |
| raitobezarius | idk, it's being debated | 00:13:48 |
| raitobezarius | maybe nix run $url -A attr ? | 00:13:55 |
