2003-04-02	* Script to register pre-built packages.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+17

2003-04-02	* Importing and exporting of pre-built packages.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-21/+115

2003-04-01	* Use ATerms for Nix descriptors.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-34/+57

2003-03-31	* Nix descriptor for Subversion.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+19

2003-03-28	* Check for collissions.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2003-03-28	* Don't fork in `nix run'.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-46/+25

2003-03-28	* Allow arguments to be passed to programs in `nix run'.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-26/+28

2003-03-25	* Added a script nix-activate which builds a list of "activated"	Eelco Dolstra	3	-18/+108
	packages (i.e., the packages that should appear in the user's $PATH, and so on). Based on this list, the script nix-populate creates a hierarchy of symlinks to the relevant files in those packages (e.g., for pkg/bin and pkg/lib). A nice property of nix-populate is that on each run it creates a new tree, rather than updating the old one. It then atomically switches over to the new tree. This allows atomic upgrades or rollbacks on the set of activated packages.
2003-03-25	* Integrate hash into instantiated descriptor file names.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+22
	* Use MD5::Digest.
2003-03-24	* For efficiency: md5 integrated into nix.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-65/+809
	* Command `nix ensure' which is like `nix getpkg' except that if the has refers to a run action it will just ensure that the imports are there. * Command `nix closure' to print out the closure of the set of descriptors under the import relation, starting at a set of roots. This can be used for garbage collection (e.g., given a list of `activated' packages, we can delete all packages not reachable from those). * Command `nix graph' to print out a Dot graph of the dependency graph. * `nix-addroot' adds a root for the (unimplemented) garbage collector.
2003-03-24	* Typo fix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-03-24	* Descriptors now have a "system" field specifying the platform that	Eelco Dolstra	16	-32/+1480
	the build or run action should be perfomed on. This ensures that descriptors have different hashes on different platforms.
2003-03-24	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-66/+37

2003-03-23	* A descriptor for running the Pan newsreader.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-0/+86
	* Added descriptors for gtkspell and its support package pspell. Gtkspell is an optional dependency of Pan, so we should add the ability to nix-instantiate to instantiate variants of a package based on a selection of features.
2003-03-23	* A command to run programs in Nix packages, that is, to execute a run	Eelco Dolstra	1	-20/+123
	action. Run actions are described by uniquely hashed descriptors, just like build actions. Therefore run actions can have dependencies, but these need not be the same as the build time dependencies (e.g., at runtime we can link against a different version of a dynamic library). Example: nix run 31d6bf4c171282367065e0deecd7c579 will run the Pan 0.13.91 newsreader with gtkspell support.
2003-03-21	* Added a command to list installed packages.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+23

2003-03-21	* Added a command to verify the consistency of the database.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-22/+93

2003-03-21	* Forgot to commit this one.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-03-21	* Fetch sources from the network.	Eelco Dolstra	13	-22/+52

2003-03-21	* Renamed dist -> build.	Eelco Dolstra	16	-8/+8

2003-03-20	* Descriptor templates for the Pan newsreader and all its	Eelco Dolstra	17	-0/+157
	dependencies.
2003-03-20	* nix-instantiate now instantiantes the closure of the set of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-17/+55
	descriptor templates under the import relation. I.e., we can now say: nix-instantiate outdir foo.nix which will create descriptors for foo.nix and all imported packages in outdir/.
2003-03-20	* Various updates.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-77/+151

2003-03-20	* A script to instantiate package descriptors from templates.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+23

2003-03-14	* Improved Nix. Resources (package descriptors and other source	Eelco Dolstra	5	-91/+306
	files) are now referenced using their cryptographic hashes. This ensures that if two package descriptors have the same contents, then they describe the same package. This property is not as trivial as it sounds: generally import relations cause this property not to hold w.r.t. temporality. But since imports also use hashes to reference other packages, equality follows by induction.
2003-03-13	* Converted to C++.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-316/+222

2003-03-13	* Initial version of nix.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-0/+468

2003-03-12	* And a trunk to go along with that.	Eelco Dolstra	0	-0/+0
