This is useful for one-off situations where you want to specify a builder on the command line instead of having to mess with nix.machines. E.g. $ nix-build -A hello --argstr system x86_64-darwin \ --option builders 'root@macstadium1 x86_64-darwin' will perform the specified build on "macstadium1". It also removes the need for a separate nix.machines file since you can specify builders in nix.conf directly. (In fact nix.machines is yet another hack that predates the general nix.conf configuration file, IIRC.) Note: this option is supported by the daemon for trusted users. The fact that this allows trusted users to specify paths to SSH keys to which they don't normally have access is maybe a bit too much trust... |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
