Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe
As mentioned in this issue executing the install.sh
script of my dotfiles currently takes 2-3 minutes (mostly by running Nix home-manager
). This means using Gitpod with my dotfiles enabled is basically not practical for my workflows (i.e. waiting 2-3 minutes every time I'm opening a workspace).
Describe the behaviour you'd like
One solution to this problem I can think of is to cache the result of the dotfiles install script.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Maybe some kind of layered file systems (e.g. via Docker images)?
