In https://github.com/trofi/nix-guix-gentoo/issues/35 changed the link in repos.conf entry and did not observe overlay update. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: User had the following sequence of events: 1. Set the overlay to point to the mirror: nix-guix location: /var/db/repos/nix-guix sync-type: git sync-uri: https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/nix-guix.git masters: gentoo volatile: False 2. emerge --sync 3. switch repos.conf entry to https://github.com/trofi/nix-guix-gentoo.git 4. emerge --sync Actual Results: /var/db/repos/nix-guix still points to the stale https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/nix-guix.git Expected Results: /var/db/repos/nix-guix points to the new https://github.com/trofi/nix-guix-gentoo.git
We can make it adjust it for volatile repos, sure. We can't really otherwise though.
If the data loss is a concern at least making the sync to fail might be more intuitive than silently succeeding.
