Style Guidelines

NixOS/Home-Manager Style

• Use 2-space indentation in all files
• Format Nix files with nixfmt
• Follow functional programming patterns
• Group related settings in modules
• Use descriptive names for options
• Document non-obvious settings with comments
• When creating new files for Nix flakes, ensure they are tracked by git before testing with nix commands
  • Untracked files can cause errors like "path '/nix/store/hash-source/path/to/file' does not exist"
  • Solution: Track files without staging using git add --intent-to-add path/to/file or git add -N path/to/file

Neovim Style

• Use Lua for all configuration
• 2-space indentation, no tabs
• Leader key is ;
• Format with proper whitespace and bracing style
• Wrap related plugin configs in feature-based groups
• Prefer native LSP functions over plugin equivalents

Git Workflow

• Create focused, atomic commits
• Use hub as git wrapper
• Use lazygit for interactive Git operations
• Prefer rebase over merge for linear history
• Do not include co-authored by Claude information in commits
• Git config location: ~/.config/git/config
• Credential storage: git-credential-manager with GPG backend
  • Initialize pass: pass init YOUR_GPG_KEY_ID
  • Credentials stored securely with GPG encryption
