| `nix env shell` is the new `nix shell`, and `nix shell` remains an accepted alias | 10504 | 10807 |
This is part of an effort to bring more structure to the CLI subcommands.
nix env will be about the process environment.
Future commands may include nix env run and nix env print-env.
It is also somewhat analogous to the planned nix dev shell (currently nix develop), which is less about environment variables, and more about running a development shell, which is a more powerful command, but also requires more setup.
