@Congee I've just uncommented the neovim-no-init test and it creates an init.vim with packpath. the packpath is empty though so that's strange. You seem to know the code quite well...

for info https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/2637 can help you generate a lua file from your home-manager config. Would be cool if someone could fix https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/blob/9d369c75ce2fdeb296ad42bcdc8c1a523c494550/tests/modules/programs/neovim/default.nix#L5 we could have some intelligence in home-manager that...

if you have some plugin-specific lua config, home-manager still creates an init.vim to write `lua require('init-home-manager')` which is a pain. I will make HM write an init.lua instead ( once...

I reopen because of the issues up from my previous message.

the init.vim is created when this condition is fullfilled https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/blob/60c6bfe322944d04bb38e76b64effcbd01258824/modules/programs/neovim.nix#L363 . You will notice that even when no config is set, the init.vim ends up with multiple lines and here...
