extraNixArgs is useful for passing ‘—show-trace’ to rebuild like:
```
nixos-unified.extraNixArgs = [
"--show-trace"
];
```
There was a problem hiding this comment.
#61 is about allowing command-line options rather than adding a new module option (which this PR does). From #61 (comment)
More generally, we should make the new activate script take arbitrary arguments from the user and pass them
nixos-rebuild,darwin-rebuildorhome-manager switchas appropriate.
What is the value of the module option? Supporting extra command line arguments is clearly valuable because the user can enable these things right off on the CLI without needing to modify the Nix file each time.

I see, the CLI option would work as well. For my case I ended up just leaving show trace on all the time since it only affects the output when there is an error and it's always more helpful than the no trace version for debugging. |
