- The store abstraction that Nix has had for a long time to support
store access via the Nix daemon has been extended significantly. In
particular, substituters (which used to be external programs such as
`download-from-binary-cache`) are now subclasses of the abstract
`Store` class. This allows many Nix commands to operate on such
store types. For example, `nix path-info` shows information about
paths in your local Nix store, while `nix path-info --store
https://cache.nixos.org/` shows information about paths in the
specified binary cache. Similarly, `nix-copy-closure`, `nix-push`
and substitution are all instances of the general notion of copying
paths between different kinds of Nix stores.
