- Collect garbage, i.e. remove unused paths to reduce space usage:
|
||||
|
||||
`nix store gc`
|
||||
|
||||
- Hard-link identical files together to reduce space usage:
|
||||
|
||||
`nix store optimise`
|
||||
|
||||
- Delete a specific store path (most be unused):
|
||||
|
||||
`nix store delete {{/nix/store/...}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- List a contents of the store path, on a remote store:
|
||||
|
||||
`nix store --store {{https://cache.nixos.org}} ls {{/nix/store/...}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Show the differences in versions between two store paths, with their respective dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
`nix store diff-closures {{/nix/store/...}} {{/nix/store/...}}`
