No, it just creates a temporary chroot in /tmp and bind mounts the
/nix/ there. As a side effect, though, you will not have access to
your regular /nix/ directory within the bundle (which i
Nice work Matthew!
I would vote for mirroring this tool in nixos github namespace (or even
trying to make this project official one) as it can have big impact of
propagating/implementing nix ideas into environments where it's not
