    nix flake update
    nix flake check --no-build
    git commit -a
    nh os switch
    

    Is the routine I’ve settled into. Flake update because I use flakes, flake check because it’s easier to see any warnings about deprecated options and the like so I can fix them preemptively, git commit after the check to avoid back-to back commits where the second is fixing some issue with the first, and nh because I like the pretty dependency graph and progress bar.

      Lots of useful stuff here. Taking all of it.

      Does nh use fast-nix-build (or whatever the fancy nix builder CLI is called) to build your system?

        I honestly don’t know how nh works under the hood, but it does seem to do concurrent builds, so it’s probably something like that.
