I have the following flake tarball input
inputs = {
...
code = {
url = "https://code.visualstudio.com/sha/download?build=insider&os=linux-x64";
type = "tarball";
flake = false;
};
};
And I want to update it, but nix flake update
seems to just skip it.
Running nix flake lock --update-input code
returns instantly, without apparently doing anything. It doesn’t seem to re-fetch the url of the tarball at all. How does it know that the previously downloaded tarball is up to date?
nix flake lock --update-input code -v --refresh
doesn’t improve the situation. I don’t get any additional information in verbose mode.
