This represents the first step in migrating `home.file` to support arbitrary absolute paths. This is to allow Home Manager to manage files anywhere, provided the user has sufficient privileges. For example, with this change the configuration home.file."test/one".text = "foo"; home.file."/test/two".text = "foo"; will result in the files "$HOME/test/one" and "/test/two", respectively. Note, a relative file name will still be relative `$HOME`. To allow a reasonable transition between the old and new path handling we introduce the notion of "generation directory layout version". The version is simply a file `version` within the generation directory containing a number indicating the version number. The version 0 (also implied if the version file is missing) indicates the legacy layout where managed file paths always are relative `$HOME`. Version 1 indicates the new layout where managed file paths are relative `/`. |
