2016-06-02 nix run: Mount the Nix store in a private namespaceEelco Dolstra1-1/+21
This is a convenience command to allow users who are not privileged to create /nix/store to use Nix with regular binary caches. For example, $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=$HOME/nix/var&real=/$HOME/nix/store" nix run firefox bashInteractive will download Firefox and bash from cache.nixos.org, then start a shell in which $HOME/nix/store is mounted on /nix/store.
