2018-04-30 nix-collect-garbage: little doc fixDanylo Hlynskyi1-6/+0
This removes confusing documentation. It's better to remove doc than add implementation, because Nix 1.12 will surely have new GC interface anyway. Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/641

2018-04-12 Add to glossary and clarify garbage collectionSean Seefried3-16/+44
While trying to understand garbage collection it was not immediately clear that only the runtime dependency closure of output paths would be kept (instead of the build-time dependency closure). This commit attempts to clarify this by expanding some of the glossary definitions and extending the Garbage Collection section.

2018-02-22 Enable sandbox builds on Linux by defaultEelco Dolstra2-3/+5
The overhead of sandbox builds is a problem on NixOS (since building a NixOS configuration involves a lot of small derivations) but not for typical non-NixOS use cases. So outside of NixOS we can enable it. Issue #179.
