I am an active nix user and develop all my projects under nix-shell.
The tool does amazing job for isolating builds, but /nix/store folder
tend to grow and GC launch is required from time to time to reclaim disk
space, but it causes lot of downloading later and/or rebuilding of
dependencies.
Once I decided to remove unused projects instead to avoid the hustle
above and was interleaving 'du -hs *' and 'rm -rf
<some-dir-name-form-du-output>' using bash command history to type less.
At some point after repetition I mechanically rewrote du command into rm
but retained asterisk :(
