2008-06-04	First attempt to update Nix SDF grammar to match the actual bison grammar	Sander van der Burg	1	-2/+4

2008-05-21	* GCC 4.3.0 (Fedora 9) compatibility fixes. Reported by Gour and	Eelco Dolstra	11	-3/+18
	Armijn Hemel.
2008-05-11	Added support for file:// archive (.nar.gz) repositories to ↵	Michael Raskin	1	-0/+5
	nix-reduce-build. /tmp/nix-export created by nix-http-export.cgi is OK.
2008-05-07	--proxy=proxy:3128	Michael Raskin	4	-1/+53

2008-04-29	Added http alternative transport for nix-reduce-build	Michael Raskin	1	-3/+12

2008-04-10	* Make really sure that we use bash. The line	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+2
	NEED_PROG(shell, bash) actually uses the content of $shell if set, which often points at /bin/sh.
2008-04-09	* sockaddr_un doesn't allow path names of more than 108 characters.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-6/+26
	This isn't usually a problem, except that it causes tests to fail when performed in a directory with a very long path name. So chdir to the socket directory and use a relative path name.
2008-03-28	* Fix for NIX-101 (should use an absolute path for call to nix-hash).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2008-03-27	* Use /tmp/nix-build-<drvpath>-<counter> instead of	Eelco Dolstra	3	-8/+17
	/tmp/nix-<pid>-<counter> for temporary build directories. This increases purity a bit: many packages store the temporary build path in their output, causing (generally unimportant) binary differences.
2008-03-21	* Updated URL.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2008-03-20	* Disable the don't-run-as-root sanity check because it breaks RPM	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	builds (which are done as root...).
2008-03-20	* Note that the SDF grammar isn't used.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2008-03-20	* Cleanup.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+9

2008-03-01	* A transaction is unnecessary since the path cannot be	Eelco Dolstra	1	-8/+3
	garbage-collected (it's a temporary root).
2008-02-28	* Don't install nix-reduce-build by default yet please, I first want	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	to understand better what it does...
2008-02-27	Added nix-reduce-build. You point it to some path you want to build and it ↵	Michael Raskin	2	-2/+71
	fetches whatever it can from specified computers via nix-copy-closure. NOTE: You do want to set up RSA keys or ssh-agent or something... You really do want it. It will run separate ssh instances insane number of times.
2008-02-21	* checkVarDefs: don't check in closed terms, which don't have	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+5
	undefined variables by definition. This matters for the implementation of "with", which does a call to checkVarDefs to see if the body of the with has no undefined variables. (It can't be checked at parse time because you don't know which variables are in the "with" attribute set.) If we check closed terms, then we check not just the with body but also the substituted terms, which are typically very large. This is the cause of the poor nix-env performance on Nixpkgs lately. It didn't happen earlier because "with" wasn't used very often in the past. This fix improves nix-env performance roughly 60x on current Nixpkgs. nix-env -qa is down from 29.3s to 0.5s on my laptop, and nix-env -qa --out-path is down from 229s to 3.39s. Not bad for a 1-line fix :-)
2008-02-05	* Fix the parsing of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+5
	'' '${foo}' '' where the antiquote should work as expected, instead of giving the string "'${foo}'".
2008-02-05	* Doh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2008-02-05	* Regression test.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+9

2008-01-29	* nix-store --dump-db / --load-db to dump/load the Nix DB.	Eelco Dolstra	9	-137/+130
	* nix-store --register-validity: option to supply the content hash of each path. * Removed compatibility with Nix <= 0.7 stores.
2008-01-20	Probably fixed __exprToString	Michael Raskin	1	-1/+4

2008-01-15	Fixed exportBuildReferenceGraph	Michael Raskin	2	-12/+77

2008-01-04	* New primop `unsafeDiscardStringContext' to get rid of string	Eelco Dolstra	3	-0/+17
	contexts. Needed to prevent unnecessary dependencies when building the NixOS manual.
2007-12-31	* Bumped the version number to 0.12.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2007-12-31	(no commit message)	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+5

2007-12-31	* More documentation.	Eelco Dolstra	6	-23/+213

2007-12-31	* More release notes.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+46

2007-12-30	* Fix the hashDerivationModulo test. I should really investigate	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+4
	why the test failed...
2007-12-30	* Documented indented string literals.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-43/+193
	* Release notes.
2007-12-30	* Don't use "store expression", it's obsolete.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2007-12-30	Added a way to include derivation with its outputs and dependencies - ↵	Michael Raskin	1	-0/+38
	exportBuildReferenceGraph
2007-12-14	* Use strsignal if available to give better error messages for	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+14
	builders that fail due to a signal.
2007-12-14	* Another insane Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility hack.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+14

2007-12-14	* Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility: `echo -n foo' suddenly prints `-n foo'	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	instead of `foo' without a newline (with /bin/sh, not /bin/bash, even though /bin/sh is also bash...). So use printf instead.
2007-12-13	* Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2007-12-12	small udpate	Marc Weber	1	-4/+4

2007-12-10	corrected --help message for nix-store a bit	Michael Raskin	1	-2/+7

2007-12-10	Very basic nix vim syntax highlighting	Marc Weber	1	-0/+35

2007-12-06	* Syntax to escape '', ${.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-2/+20

2007-12-04	* component -> package.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-98/+97

2007-11-30	* Added a new kind of multi-line string literal delimited by two	Eelco Dolstra	6	-3/+234
	single quotes. Example (from NixOS): job = '' start on network-interfaces start script rm -f /var/run/opengl-driver ${if videoDriver == "nvidia" then "ln -sf ${nvidiaDrivers} /var/run/opengl-driver" else if cfg.driSupport then "ln -sf ${mesa} /var/run/opengl-driver" else "" } rm -f /var/log/slim.log end script ''; This style has two big advantages: - \, ' and " aren't special, only '' and ${. So you get a lot less escaping in shell scripts / configuration files in Nixpkgs/NixOS. The delimiter '' is rare in scripts (and can usually be written as ""). ${ is also fairly rare. Other delimiters such as <<...>>, {{...}} and <\|...\|> were also considered but this one appears to have the fewest drawbacks (thanks Martin). - Indentation is intelligently stripped so that multi-line strings can follow the nesting structure of the containing Nix expression. E.g. in the example above 6 spaces are stripped from the start of each line. This prevents unnecessary indentation in generated files (which sometimes even breaks things). See tests/lang/eval-okay-ind-string.nix for some examples.
2007-11-29	* nix-env -e: support uninstalling by path, so that one can say	Eelco Dolstra	7	-50/+81
	$ nix-env -e $(which firefox) or $ nix-env -e /nix/store/nywzlygrkfcgz7dfmhm5xixlx1l0m60v-pan-0.132 * nix-env -i: if an argument contains a slash anywhere, treat it as a path and follow it through symlinks into the Nix store. This allows things like $ nix-build -A firefox $ nix-env -i ./result * nix-env -q/-i/-e: don't complain when the `' selector doesn't match anything. In particular, `nix-env -q \' doesn't fail anymore on an empty profile.
2007-11-29	* Troubleshooting entry about running out of locks.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+43

2007-11-21	* New primop `readFile' to get the contents of a file as a string.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-0/+23

2007-11-16	* Flag `--no-build-hook' to disable distributed builds.	Eelco Dolstra	9	-6/+23
	* queryDeriver in daemon mode: don't barf if the other side returns an empty string (which means there is no deriver).
