Update uninstall.md: mention .profile
~/.profile is auto-edited by the single-mode installer so we should mention it in the uninstall instructions

5b36ee4c95 Add pre-commit hook and make format target
I've added the new local.mk to the package sources. While this
should not be needed for the build, it is the simplest solution,
and won't cause many extra rebuilds, because the file won't change
very often.

93d68e18e5 Make outputHashAlgo accept "nar", stay in sync
Now that we have a few things identifying content address methods by
name, we should be consistent about it.

Move up the `parseHashAlgoOpt` for tidiness too.

Discussed this change for consistency's sake as part of #8876

doc/rl-2.20: add missing entry about nix copy --to ssh-ng://...
This requires `--substitute-on-destination` if you want the remote side
to substitute instead of copying if possible.

For completeness sake, document it here.

Also, the stable Nix from nixpkgs is still 2.18, so more folks may
stumble upon this when this is bumped, so I'd expect this to be actually
useful.

Closes #10182

show Nix logo in the manual (#9870)
* show Nix logo in the manual

the location of files is hard-coded by mdBook.
there is also seems to be no way to define custom templates, therefore
all styling has to be done in the CSS override.

Trim down the proposal quite a bit, making it much closer to the previous text, just more explicit about what we support.

cc29d85d06 Doc: explicitly specify which shell to use to get clangd
I was using by mistake the .#nix-clangStdenv shell to retrieve clangd.
This clangd is unusable with the project and constantly segfaults.
Let's explicitly state which shell the user should use in the docs.

I don't really understand the source of this segfault. I assume it's
related to a clang version incompatibility. (16.0.6 for
.#nix-clangStdenv 14.0.6 for .#native-clangStdenvPackages)

c13a31f639 Update the release cycle
- Align the “frequent” release cycle with the calendar
  - The 6-month release cycle is hard to keep track of. A monthly
    release will make it much easier to remember the release date.
- Officialise the support for a stable version maintained for as long as NixOS stable
  - This is already the case in practice, it just happens that the
    “stable” Nixpkgs version is whichever version was deemed
    stable-enough at the time of the NixOS release.
    Officialise that by cutting a new major release alongside each NixOS one.

Note that this breaks whatever semver compatibility Nix might pretend to
have, but I don't think it makes sense any way.
