For some reason, I have the following error message when I run git pull with nix git.

$ git pull
No user exists for uid XXXXX
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Maybe future myself will try to debug that...

Are you on the cluster? If so, this is might be if git is using libc that isn't NSS aware, and this is only looking at /etc/passwd for the your UID. Just a guess.

Edit: not just on the cluster - anything using NSS for lookup.

You can probably use nss_wrapper, but it's a pain, imo.
