- [x] I have searched the existing issues
### Feature description
Since #14498 , there is support for updating the inputs of nix flakes. This currently only supports public repos (as mentioned in the description of the PR).
It would be great if we could also update private repos (on github or on another platform).
Contributor guide
Research direction
Review issue #14498 and the existing Nix flake input update path first, then trace how repository credentials are handled for private sources. Done means Nix flake inputs can be updated for private repositories on GitHub and other supported platforms, with coverage for the relevant cases.
