synopsis: Removing the default argument passed to the `nix fmt` formatter
issues: []
prs: [11438]
---
The underlying formatter no longer receives the ". " default argument when `nix fmt` is called with no arguments.
This change was necessary as the formatter wasn't able to distinguish between
a user wanting to format the current folder with `nix fmt .` or the generic
`nix fmt`.
The default behaviour is now the responsibility of the formatter itself, and
allows tools such as treefmt to format the whole tree instead of only the
current directory and below.
