So the nix-buildand all other nix2 cli are stmlinks to the binary to do the argv dispatch. Those also must be created before the test suite is run.

@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonhttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/vcpkg/github-integration how do we feel about giving this a spin?15:53:10
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonit might be nice to have some non-nix ways of building nix in there, not as required-pass, if they won't waste too many github action slots15:53:40
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Maybe as a post-merge check?16:37:08
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)But there's also no vcpkg recipe for nix and I don't think anybody would willingly use vcpkg16:38:28
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92 @xokdvium:matrix.org: what do you want to achieve? Is this about caching object files from compilation? 18:30:27
