Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
NixOS systems have a profile system which enable multiple generations to be managed.
This is a generalized form of A/B for the kernelspace and userspace without any automatic rollback or healthchecks.
Not all system types have a proper profile system as the one of NixOS, we should generalize the way it behaves and abstract it.
Related to this are the reboot mechanism where we check if the rebooted system has the correct profile.
