Benjamin Hipple	762febafe2	doc: mention how to turn on pure evaluation mode in manual ... The flag is `--pure-eval`, which can be found by looking at the test suite; it should be in the notes describing the feature as well, since otherwise users may assume this is referencing something like `nix-shell --pure`.	2020-02-15 01:44:51 -05:00

Benjamin Hipple	5d24e18e29	doc: touchup release notes for 2.3 ... - At the top of the release notes, we announce sandboxing is now enabled by default, then at the bottom it says it's now disabled when missing kernel support. These can be merged into one point for clarity. - The point about `max-jobs` defaulting to 1 appears unrelated to sandboxing.	2020-01-14 00:14:03 -05:00
