	Nix's search path
2012-04-16	Hack to prevent accumulation of old manifests	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+3

2012-04-16	Fix obscure race condition in GC root creation	Eelco Dolstra	1	-16/+18
	This should fix rare Hydra errors of the form: error: symlinking `/nix/var/nix/gcroots/per-user/hydra/hydra-roots/7sfhs5fdmjxm8sqgcpd0pgcsmz1kq0l0-nixos-iso-0.1pre33785-33795' to `/nix/store/7sfhs5fdmjxm8sqgcpd0pgcsmz1kq0l0-nixos-iso-0.1pre33785-33795': File exists
2012-04-15	Set a few more close-on-exec flags	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+4

2012-04-15	Close almost all file descriptors in the builder	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	This regression was accidentally introduced in 35355fc1fcffbe859395e360c0a6a1463f137d63.
2012-04-14	If the (redirected) channel URL contains a version number, use it	Eelco Dolstra	3	-4/+10

2012-04-14	Follow redirects early to ensure consistency between the manifest and the ↵	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+8
	tarball Without this change, if the URL is a redirect that changes in between, we can get a manifest that doesn't match the tarball.
2012-04-14	Urgh, modified the wrong file...	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2012-04-14	Remove unnecessary "system" argument	Eelco Dolstra	4	-6/+6

2012-04-14	nix-channel improvements	Eelco Dolstra	6	-120/+104
	"nix-channel --add" now accepts a second argument: the channel name. This allows channels to have a nicer name than (say) nixpkgs_unstable. If no name is given, it defaults to the last component of the URL (with "-unstable" or "-stable" removed). Also, channels are now stored in a profile (/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/$USER/channels). One advantage of this is that it allows rollbacks (e.g. if "nix-channel --update" gives an undesirable update).
2012-04-13	If "pv" is available at compile time, hard-code its path	Eelco Dolstra	3	-1/+3

2012-04-13	nix-copy-closure: Move the progressViewer directly adjacent to the ssh call ↵	Shea Levy	2	-2/+2
	so that network progress is what's measured
2012-04-13	Add the '--show-progress' flag to nix-copy-closure	Shea Levy	3	-5/+20

2012-04-13	Use Bison 2.5	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+3

2012-04-06	Fix building from the tarball	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2012-04-06	Documentation fix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+3

2012-04-06	Include environment variables in the manpages	Eelco Dolstra	5	-2/+37

2012-04-06	Include common options in the manpages using some XInclude hackery	Eelco Dolstra	6	-25/+54

2012-04-06	Update affiliation	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+1

2012-04-06	Add a missing DocBook source file to the tarball	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Reported on IRC by Adrian Siekierka.
2012-04-05	On Linux, pretend we're building on Linux 2.6	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+11
	Setting the UNAME26 personality causes "uname" to return "2.6.x", regardless of the kernel version. This improves determinism in a few misbehaved packages.
2012-04-04	nix-generate-patches: Optionally write new patches to $NIX_ALL_PATCHES	Hydra mirror	1	-0/+10

2012-04-04	Include --keep-going in --help	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+4

2012-04-04	Follow redirects when checking for the existence of MANIFEST.bz2	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	If we don't follow redirects, we might think that MANIFEST.bz2 exists just because the HEAD request succeeds on the redirector URI.
2012-03-27	Update "nix-build --help"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+6

2012-03-27	Add an option "--exclude" to filter dependencies in "nix-build --run-env"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+9
	Sometimes when doing "nix-build --run-env" you don't want all dependencies to be built. For instance, if we want to do "--run-env" on the "build" attribute in Hydra's release.nix (to get Hydra's build environment), we don't want its "tarball" dependency to be built. So we can do: $ nix-build --run-env release.nix -A build --exclude 'hydra-tarball' This will skip the dependency whose name matches the "hydra-tarball" regular expression. The "--exclude" option can be repeated any number of times.
2012-03-27	Allow the command executed by "nix-build --run-env" to be overriden with ↵	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+9
	--command
2012-03-26	Mac OS X fix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2012-03-26	Delete non-directory valid paths right away	Eelco Dolstra	1	-16/+27
	It's unlikely that rename() is faster than unlink() on a regular file or symlink, so don't bother.
2012-03-26	Make the garbage collector more concurrent	Eelco Dolstra	3	-21/+48
	Make the garbage collector more concurrent by deleting valid paths outside the region where we're holding the global GC lock. This should greatly reduce the time during which new builds are blocked, since the deletion accounts for the vast majority of the time spent in the GC. To ensure that this is safe, the valid paths are invalidated and renamed to some arbitrary path while we're holding the lock. This ensures that we when we finally delete the path, it's not a (newly) valid or locked path.
2012-03-26	Remove the --max-links GC option	Eelco Dolstra	7	-30/+3
	We don't need this anymore now that current filesystems support more than 32,000 files in a directory.
2012-03-22	Fixing the default of sync-before-registering	Lluís Batlle i Rossell	1	-1/+5
	Setting 'false' as default, as suggested by Eelco. I also added a comment about the setting in the code.
2012-03-22	Adding a nix option to sync before registering a path, for non-ext*	Lluís Batlle i Rossell	1	-0/+2
	filesystems.
2012-03-20	nix-store --clear-failed-paths: Clear derivation outputs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3
	If the argument to ‘nix-store --clear-failed-paths’ is a derivation, then clear the failed state of its outputs.
2012-03-19	Fix the coverage build	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2012-03-19	Fix the Deb builds	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2012-03-19	Fix the RPM	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+7

2012-03-19	Add a command "nix-build --run-env" to reproduce the environment of a derivation	Eelco Dolstra	3	-0/+72
	This command builds or fetches all dependencies of the given derivation, then starts a shell with the environment variables from the derivation. This shell also sources $stdenv/setup to initialise the environment further. The current directory is not changed. Thus this is a convenient way to reproduce a build environment in an existing working tree. Existing environment variables are left untouched (unless the derivation overrides them). As a special hack, the original value of $PATH is appended to the $PATH produced by $stdenv/setup. Example session: $ nix-build --run-env '<nixpkgs>' -A xterm (the dependencies of xterm are built/fetched...) $ tar xf $src $ ./configure $ make $ emacs (... hack source ...) $ make $ ./xterm
2012-03-19	Replace "make check" with "make installcheck"	Eelco Dolstra	8	-46/+25
	Ensuring that the tests work from the build tree requires a growing number of nasty hacks. The tests also don't verify that the installed Nix actually works. Thus, the tests now require "make install" to have been run.
2012-03-19	Fix the optional dependency on OpenSSL	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2306540
2012-03-18	Drop the externals directory	Eelco Dolstra	12	-181/+66
	Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed. SQLite is detected using pkg-config. We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so depending on SQLite is not a big problem. The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone.
