The condition does not match the comment, and therefore not the original
intention. It currently returns early in *any* type of Nix shell, not
just pure ones, including 'nix develop'.
Besides being unnecessary, this check prevents Nix shells from
functioning properly. For instance, it causes the initialization of the
Zsh fpath to be skipped, which is critical. The fact that the user is
unable to opt out of this behaviour makes this an ever bigger problem
since /etc/zshenv is being loaded unconditionally by Zsh.
For reference, NixOS does not perform such check, and apparently never
did.
This process was automated by [my fork of `nix-doc-munge`]; thanks
to @pennae for writing this tool! It automatically checks that the
resulting documentation doesn't change, although my fork loosens
this a little to ignore some irrelevant whitespace and typographical
differences.
As of this commit there is no DocBook remaining in the options
documentation.

As described in detail here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/32533
bash will load completion scripts in $p/share/bash-completion/completions/ on
startup instead of letting bash-completion do it's lazy loading. Bash startup
will then slow down (very noticeable when bash-completion is installed in a
profile).
This commit leaves loading of scripts in the hands of bash-completion,
improving startup time for everyone using `enableCompletion`.
Fixes#101
This should enable `nix run` to work under shells like fish and zsh,
as well as making child shells not needlessly reset any environment
that should be inherited.
Implementation adapted from NixOS.
