Description
Copying Closures via SSH should be removed from the Nix manual according to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/7769, as this is clearly a guide.
We want to keep the information, because it appears to be a fairly well-known use case.
Currently nix.dev doesn't have a dedicated section for guides, but this may be an opportunity to open one.
