Jan Tojnar	e96faadcd6	Fix XDG_CONFIG_DIRS fallback ... According to XDG Base Directory Specification, it should fall back to /etc/xdg when the env var is not present.	2021-11-17 14:31:15 +01:00
Jan Tojnar	e5d4c2235f	docs: Correct fallback user config path ... This is in line with XDG Base Directory Specification, where ~/.config is supposed to be used when XDG_CONFIG_HOME is unset. It also better matches the reality, where ~/.config/nix.conf does not seem to be used.	2021-11-04 11:41:29 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra	ff4dea63c9	Generalize extra-* settings ...
