# This module deploys a NixOS host by building a system closure
# located at the specified attribute in the current repository.
#
# The closure's derivation path is persisted in the Terraform state to
# determine after Nix evaluation whether the system closure has
# changed and needs to be built/deployed.
#
# The system configuration is then built (or substituted) on the
# machine that runs `terraform apply`, then copied and activated on
# the target machine using `nix-copy-closure`.
