<para>
The <option>home.file.&lt;name?&gt;.source</option> now allows source
files to be hidden, that is, having a name starting with the
<literal>.</literal> character. It also allows the source file name to
contain characters not typically allowed for Nix store paths. For example,
your configuration can now contain things such as
<programlisting>
home.file."my file".source = ./. + "/file with spaces!";
</programlisting>
