probably. The following commands are nix specifc anyway and there should some kind of test before them. But maybe a better solution would be to remove .envrc from versioning ?

I agree that I usually setup the .envrc file myself (one liner in most cases).

if ! has nix_direnv_version || ! nix_direnv_version 3.0.6; then
source_url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nix-community/nix-direnv/3.0.6/direnvrc" "sha256-RYcUJaRMf8oF5LznDrlCXbkOQrywm0HDv1VjYGaJGdM="
