Most of the time people run single tests for debugging reason,
so it's a sane default to have them see all the console output.
This commit still retains the section about running tests directly with
meson, because in some debugging cases it's just nice to have less
abstractions i.e. when using strace.
The impending release of macOS 15 Sequoia will break many existing nix
installs on macOS, which may lead to an increased number of people who
are looking to try to reinstall Nix without noticing the open/pinned
issue (#10892) that explains the problem and outlines how to migrate
existing installs.
These admonitions are a short-term measure until we are over the hump
and support volumes dwindle.
When `nix fmt` is called without an argument, Nix appends the "." argument before calling the formatter. The comment in the code is:
> Format the current flake out of the box
This also happens when formatting sub-folders.
This means that the formatter is now unable to distinguish, as an interface, whether the "." argument is coming from the flake or the user's intent to format the current folder. This decision should be up to the formatter.
Treefmt, for example, will automatically look up the project's root and format all the files. This is the desired behaviour. But because the "." argument is passed, it cannot function as expected.
This reverts commit 43e82c9446, reversing
changes made to d79b9bdec0.
Since /proc/homeless-shelter returns a different errno than /homeless-shelter (ENOENT vs EACCES), we need to revert this change.
Software depends on this error code i.e. cargo and therefore breaks.
Incorrectly high expectations lead to frustration for users who
stick around to experience how useless it is for e.g. a devShell

Since we have a componentized build, we've solved the duplication.
In the new situation, building both with and without unit tests
isn't any slow than just a build with unit tests, so there's no
point in using the unit-tested build anymore.
By using the otherwise untested build, we reduce the minimum build
time towards the NixOS test, at no cost.
If you want to run all tests, build all attributes.
