-  # Steps to test CI automation in your own fork.
-  # Cachix:
-  # 1. Sign-up for https://www.cachix.org/
-  # 2. Create a cache for $githubuser-nix-install-tests
-  # 3. Create a cachix auth token and save it in https://github.com/$githubuser/nix/settings/secrets/actions in "Repository secrets" as CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN
-  # Dockerhub:
-  # 1. Sign-up for https://hub.docker.com/
-  # 2. Store your dockerhub username as DOCKERHUB_USERNAME in "Repository secrets" of your fork repository settings (https://github.com/$githubuser/nix/settings/secrets/actions)
-  # 3. Create an access token in https://hub.docker.com/settings/security and store it as DOCKERHUB_TOKEN in "Repository secrets" of your fork
