This may occur when stderr is a tty but stdin is empty.
E.g.
$ nix build </dev/null
error: unexpected EOF reading a line
These stdio handles are how some non-interactive sandboxes behave,
including the Nix build sandbox and Hercules CI Effects.
Unfortunately `StringSource` class is very easy was very easy to misuse
because the ctor took a plain `std::string_view` which has a bad habit
of being implicitly convertible from an rvalue `std::string`. This lead
to unintentional use-after-free bugs.
This patch makes `StringSource` much harder to misuse by disabling the ctor
from a `std::string &&` (but `const std::string &` is ok).
Fix affected tests from libstore-tests.
Reformat those tests with clangd's range formatting since the diff is tiny
and it seems appropriate.
It had gotten rather big. Hopefully we'll eventually have some generic
infra for a "multi-package dev shell" and not need so much code for
this, but until then it's better in a separate file.
operators are an everyday thing in the Nix language, and this page will
hopefully be consulted by many users.
string contexts are quite exotic, and not linking to the detailed
explanation will require readers to figure out manually what this is
about, or worse, skim over and run into problems later.
* doc/manual: Add 'Debugging Nix' section
This commit adds a new 'Debugging Nix' section to the Nix manual. It provides instructions on how to build Nix with debug symbols and how to debug the Nix binary using debuggers like `lldb`.

We now just check that the fetcher doesn't change any attributes in
the input, and return all the original attributes (i.e. discarding any
new attributes and keeping any attributes that the fetcher didn't
keep).
This fixes the error
