Add a `secretKeyFiles` URI parameter in the store URIs receiving a coma-separated list of Nix signing keyfiles. For instance: nix copy --to "file:///tmp/store?secret-keys=/tmp/key1,/tmp/key2" \ "$(nix build --print-out-paths nixpkgs#hello)" The keys passed through this new store URI parameter are merged with the key specified in the `secretKeyFile` parameter, if any. We'd like to rotate the signing key for cache.nixos.org. To simplify the transition, we'd like to sign the new paths with two keys: the new one and the current one. With this, the cache can support nix configurations only trusting the new key and legacy configurations only trusting the current key. See https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/149 for more informations behind the motivation. |
