1ece8c083b Drop support for Nix home-manager
On my work machines, I'm finding home-manager to be more bothersome than
helpful. I'm preferring a simpler workflow for the time being.

59f7481411 Revise previous opinions about absolute paths GT <bracket-notation>
Unforeseen problem: `buildkite-agent` runs its builds in a separate directory,
so if I want the `nix-build` command to build the newly checked out code, I need
to set <briefcase> to the CWD.

a500171fd8 Remove unnecessary rec { .. }
In Nix, rec mean "recursive" and for attribute sets, this allows
attributes to refer to other attributes in the same attribute set. This
is useful, but I'm not using it here, so I'm removing it.

6b224a9e31 Drop support for lorri
Lorri does not cleanly integrate with my corporate device, which cannot run
NixOS. To expose dependencies to Emacs buffers, I will use nix-buffer.el, which
reads its values from dir-locals.nix. To easily expose dependencies from my
existing shell.nix files into dir-locals.nix, I wrote a Nix utility function.

166aed6e80 Disable redshift's fading animation
I originally passed the options `[ "-o" "-P" ]` to disable redshift's fading
animation, but what I wanted originally was the `[ "-r" ]` option.

1487d06660 Support autorandr
Enable autorandr with Nix home-manager. I discovered autorandr when looking
through the home-manager source code. I was hoping it would automatically
enable/disable my external monitor when I connect/disconnect my HDMI cable, but
it doesn't.

With autorandr, I run...

```shell
> autorandr --load mobile
```

...to load my randr settings for just my laptop without the external monitor,
and I run...

```shell
> autorandr --load docked
```

...to load my randr settings for my external monitor.

I'm not sure if this brings much more value than my existing display.el module,
but I'm willing to try it for now.

beeed2baa2 Prefer locally installed /usr/bin/git
From what I understand, gLinux and Nix are sometimes compatible and sometimes
incompatible.

Some nix-installed programs rely on system state that differs from gLinux's
system state. In other cases, Google wraps existing programs (e.g. git) to
provide Google-specific configuration.

Ever since I switched to home-manager and set `programs.git.enable = true`,
magit, which uses the git that PATH exposes hasn't been able to push, fetch, and
a few other commands.

TODO(wpcarro): Define a base home.nix that my gLinux and NixOS machines can
extend.

2695eae15d Define fish function, ptree
Get all pstree outputs for a given process name.

Usage:
```fish
> ptree ssh-agent
```

I'm unsure if I like home-managers; I'd prefer defining this functions in a
functions.fish file for a few reasons:
- I like syntax highlighting.
- home-manager compiles this into poorly formatted fish code.

I removed the code that initializes unclutter from .profile - preferring to
start it with home-manager.

d784c1d157 Support keynav with home-manager
I removed the startup code from .profile. I also depend on a fork of
home-manager until I submit my PR from wpcarro/home-manager into
rycee/home-manager.

405be98069 Manage xsession with home-manager
redshift didn't properly work because it couldn't read the DISPLAY environment
variable. I can fix this ad-hoc with `systemctl --user import-environment
DISPLAY`, but home-manager will do this automatically if I allow it to manage my
xsession.

configuration.

2eb9259a1b Manage fish with home-manager
I patched home-manager locally to support fzf keybindings for fish. I will PR
this into home-manager, but I haven't yet, which means that my home.nix file
depends on my local ~/home-manager.
