Relation to static builds in Hydra?
Hi, I occasionally need a lightweight static Nix so when I google for it I land on this repo.
Then I remember that there was some kind of official static build, so I look some more and find https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/56281 .
I think in the past I've used both this build (thanks BTW!) and the one in Hydra, and I wonder if there are any differences between them?
Ah for one I think this one is truly portable whereas the Hydra build still puts the nix store in /nix
...which now seems to have improved in nix itself, according to the last release summary: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ypFLcMCSzNA (last section 'portable nix')
🤘🥳
