Rename doc/manual{src -> source}
This is needed to avoid this https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/13774 when we go back to making our subproject directory `src`.

# Name
|
||||
|
||||
`nix-store --delete` - delete store paths
|
||||
|
||||
# Synopsis
|
||||
|
||||
`nix-store` `--delete` [`--ignore-liveness`] *paths…*
|
||||
|
||||
# Description
|
||||
|
||||
The operation `--delete` deletes the store paths *paths* from the Nix
|
||||
store, but only if it is safe to do so; that is, when the path is not
|
||||
reachable from a root of the garbage collector. This means that you can
|
||||
only delete paths that would also be deleted by `nix-store --gc`. Thus,
|
||||
`--delete` is a more targeted version of `--gc`.
|
||||
|
||||
With the option `--ignore-liveness`, reachability from the roots is
|
||||
ignored. However, the path still won’t be deleted if there are other
|
||||
paths in the store that refer to it (i.e., depend on it).
|
||||
|
||||
{{#include ./opt-common.md}}
|
||||
|
||||
{{#include ../opt-common.md}}
|
||||
|
||||
{{#include ../env-common.md}}
|
||||
|
||||
# Example
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ nix-store --delete /nix/store/zq0h41l75vlb4z45kzgjjmsjxvcv1qk7-mesa-6.4
|
||||
0 bytes freed (0.00 MiB)
|
||||
error: cannot delete path `/nix/store/zq0h41l75vlb4z45kzgjjmsjxvcv1qk7-mesa-6.4' since it is still alive
|
||||
```
