Refactored the Nix initialization script to reduce duplicated code and centralize the installation workflow. The core functionality remains unchanged, but all installer calls now use a unified function with retry support to ensure resilient downloads in CI and container environments. Key improvements: - Added download retry logic (5 minutes total, 20-second intervals) - Consolidated installer invocation into `install_nix_with_retry` - Reduced code duplication across container/host install paths - Preserved existing installation behavior for all environments - Maintained `nixbld` group and build-user handling - Improved consistency and readability without altering semantics This prevents intermittent failures such as: “curl: (6) Could not resolve host: nixos.org” and ensures stable, deterministic Nix setup in CI pipelines. https://chatgpt.com/share/693b13ce-fdcc-800f-a7bc-81c67478edff
Package Manager🤖📦
Kevins's Package Manager is a configurable Python tool designed to manage multiple repositories via Bash. It automates common Git operations such as clone, pull, push, status, and more. Additionally, it handles the creation of executable wrappers and alias links for your repositories.

Installation & Setup:
Create executable wrappers with auto-detected commands (e.g.main.shormain.py). -
Git Operations:
Easily performgit pull,push,status,commit,diff,add,show, andcheckoutwith extra parameters passed through. -
Configuration Management:
Manage repository configurations via a default file (config/defaults.yaml) and a user-specific file (config/config.yaml). Initialize, add, delete, or ignore entries using subcommands. -
Path & Listing:
Display repository paths or list all configured packages with their details. -
Custom Aliases:
Generate and manage custom aliases for easy command invocation.
