Add *path* to the Nix search path. The Nix search path is
initialized from the colon-separated `NIX_PATH` environment
variable, and is used to look up Nix expressions enclosed in angle
brackets (i.e., `<nixpkgs>`). For instance, if the Nix search path
consists of the entries
```
/home/eelco/Dev
/etc/nixos
```
Nix will look for paths relative to `/home/eelco/Dev` and
`/etc/nixos`, in this order. It is also possible to match paths
against a prefix. For example, the search path
```
nixpkgs=/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs-branch
/etc/nixos
```
will cause Nix to search for `<nixpkgs/path>` in
`/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs-branch/path` and `/etc/nixos/nixpkgs/path`.
If a path in the Nix search path starts with `http://` or `https://`,
it is interpreted as the URL of a tarball that will be downloaded and
unpacked to a temporary location. The tarball must consist of a single
top-level directory. For example, setting `NIX_PATH` to
```
nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz
```
tells Nix to download and use the current contents of the `master`
branch in the `nixpkgs` repository.
The URLs of the tarballs from the official `nixos.org` channels
(see [the manual page for `nix-channel`](nix-channel.md)) can be
abbreviated as `channel:<channel-name>`. For instance, the
following two values of `NIX_PATH` are equivalent:
```
nixpkgs=channel:nixos-21.05
nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-21.05/nixexprs.tar.xz
```
You can also use refer to source trees looked up in the flake
registry. For instance,
```
nixpkgs=flake:nixpkgs
```
specifies that the prefix `nixpkgs` shall refer to the source tree
downloaded from the `nixpkgs` entry in the flake registry. Similarly,
```
nixpkgs=flake:github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-22.05
makes `<nixpkgs>` refer to a particular branch of the
`NixOS/nixpkgs` repository on GitHub.
