If you do not plan on having Home Manager manage your shell configuration then you must source the -

This file can be sourced directly by POSIX.2-like shells such as Bash or -Z shell.
For example, if you use Bash then add

to your ~/.profile file.
If instead of using channels you want to run Home Manager from a Git +Z shell.
For example, if you use Bash then add

If instead of using channels you want to run Home Manager from a Git

The solution is typically to uninstall the package from the environment using nix-env --uninstall and reattempt the Home Manager generation switch.
You could also opt to unistall all of the packages from your profile with nix-env --uninstall '*'.
Home Manager is only able to set session variables automatically if it manages your Bash or Z shell configuration. If you don’t want to let Home Manager manage your shell then you will have to manually source the ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh file in an appropriate way. In Bash and Z shell this can be done by adding
. "$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh"
to your .profile and .zshrc files, respectively. The hm-session-vars.sh file should work in most Bourne-like shells.
A typical way to prepare a repository of configurations for multiple logins and machines is to prepare one "top-level" file for each unique combination.
For example, if you have two machines, called "kronos" and "rhea" on which you want to configure your user "jane" then you could create the files
