nix-configs

Manage .flake.patches — find fixes for build failures, check if patches landed in nixos-unstable, register or remove patches. Use when a nix build fails after a flake update.

Flake update with fork merge — create merge commit, run flake-lock-merge, advance main. Use when updating flake inputs in a repo with both a public (kdn) and private (fork) remote.

Update flake.lock, handle patches, and test builds. Use when asked to update the flake, run nix run .#update, handle patch failures, or test darwin/nixos builds after an update.

jj version control patterns — working copy, split/squash, bookmarks, fork rebase. Single source of truth for jj usage in this repo; use whenever reaching for a raw git command, or when working with jj commits, splits, rebases, or bookmark management.
