-## Quirks about cargo2nix/rust in Nix
-
-If you use submodules in your crate (like `crdt` and `replication` in `garage_table`), you must list them in `default.nix`
-
-The Windows target does not work. it might be solvable through [overrides](https://github.com/cargo2nix/cargo2nix/blob/master/overlay/overrides.nix). Indeed, we pass `x86_64-pc-windows-gnu` but mingw need `x86_64-w64-mingw32`
-
-We have a simple [PR on cargo2nix](https://github.com/cargo2nix/cargo2nix/pull/201) that fixes critical bugs but the project does not seem very active currently. We must use [my patched version of cargo2nix](https://github.com/superboum/cargo2nix) to enable i686 and armv6l compilation. We might need to contribute to cargo2nix in the future.
-
-
-## Nix
-
-Nix has no armv7 + musl toolchains but armv7l is backward compatible with armv6l.
-
-```bash
-cat > $HOME/.awsrc <<EOF
-export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="xxx"
-export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="xxx"
-EOF
-
-# source each time you want to send on the cache
-source ~/.awsrc
-
-# copy garage build dependencies (and not only the output)
-nix-build
-nix-store -qR --include-outputs $(nix-instantiate default.nix) 
-  | xargs nix copy --to 's3://nix?endpoint=garage.deuxfleurs.fr&region=garage'
-  
-# copy shell dependencies
-nix-build shell.nix -A inputDerivation
-nix copy $(nix-store -qR result/) --to 's3://nix?endpoint=garage.deuxfleurs.fr&region=garage' 
-```
-
-More example of nix-copy
-
-```
-# nix-build produces a result/ symlink
-nix copy result/ --to 's3://nix?endpoint=garage.deuxfleurs.fr&region=garage'
-
-# alternative ways to use nix copy
-nix copy nixpkgs.garage --to ...
-nix copy /nix/store/3rbb9qsc2w6xl5xccz5ncfhy33nzv3dp-crate-garage-0.3.0 --to ...
-```
-    
-
-Clear the cache:
-
-```bash
-mc rm --recursive --force garage/nix/
-```
-
----
-
-A desirable `nix.conf` for a consumer:
-
-```toml
-substituters = https://cache.nixos.org https://nix.web.deuxfleurs.fr
-trusted-public-keys = cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY= nix.web.deuxfleurs.fr:eTGL6kvaQn6cDR/F9lDYUIP9nCVR/kkshYfLDJf1yKs=
-```
-
-And now, whenever you run a command like:
-
-```
-nix-shell
-nix-build
-```
-
-Our cache will be checked.

-## Drone
-
-Do not try to set a build as trusted from the interface or the CLI tool,
-your request would be ignored. Instead, directly edit the database (table `repos`, column `repo_trusted`).
-
-Drone can do parallelism both at the step and the pipeline level. At the step level, parallelism is restricted to the same runner.
-
-## Building Docker containers
-
-We were:
-  - Unable to use the official Docker plugin because
-    - it requires to mount docker socket in the container but it is not recommended
-    - you cant set the platform when building
-  - Unable to use buildah because it needs `CLONE_USERNS` capability
-  - Unable to use the kaniko plugin for Drone as we can't set the target platform
-  - Unable to use the kaniko container provided by Google as we can't run arbitrary logic: we need to put our secret in .docker/config.json.
-
-Finally we chose to build kaniko through nix and use it in a `nix-shell`.
