2003-07-14 * Get the garbage collector to work again.Eelco Dolstra2-22/+25
2003-07-14 * After building, scan for actual file system references asEelco Dolstra7-12/+149
opposed to declared references. This prunes the reference graph, thus allowing better garbage collection and more efficient derivate distribution.
2003-07-13 * Don't check for staleness by default.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
2003-07-13 * Pass $(prefix) and other variables through -D..., not Eelco Dolstra2-15/+17
through config.h, to prevent silly Autoconf problems.
2003-07-13 * Generate the scripts so that we can substitute the prefixEelco Dolstra6-24/+23
etc. correctly. * Fixed nix-switch.
2003-07-12 * Fetchurl: check md5 checksum.Eelco Dolstra2-3/+10
2003-07-11 * Fix a bug that caused Fix not to be deterministic (due to addToStoreEelco Dolstra3-9/+9
returning different paths if the hash of the path to be added was already available in the store under a different name).
2003-07-11 * Fix handling of pipes (read(2) may not return the requiredEelco Dolstra1-5/+7
number of bytes in one call).
2003-07-10 * Compress Nix archives when pushing them.Eelco Dolstra4-5/+7
2003-07-10 * Working derivate sharing.Eelco Dolstra2-4/+23
2003-07-10 * Convert tabs to spaces.Eelco Dolstra2-70/+70
2003-07-10 * A command to register successor fstate expressions.Eelco Dolstra3-1/+28
Unifying substitutes and successors isn't very feasible for now, since substitutes are only used when no path with a certain is known. Therefore, a normal form of some expression stored as a substitute would not be used unless the expression itself was missing.
2003-07-10 * Performance enhancement.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+8
2003-07-10 * The policy-free derivate sharing now *almost* works. :-) For anyEelco Dolstra13-142/+155
hash for which no local expansion is available, Nix can execute a `substitute' which should produce a path with such a hash. This is policy-free since Nix does not in any way specify how the substitute should work, i.e., it's an arbitrary (unnormalised) fstate expression. For example, `nix-pull' registers substitutes that fetch Nix archives from the network (through `wget') and unpack them, but any other method is possible as well. This is an improvement over the old Nix sharing scheme, which had a policy (fetching through `wget') built in. The sharing scheme doesn't work completely yet because successors from fstate rewriting have to be registered on the receiving side. Probably the whole successor stuff can be folded up into the substitute mechanism; this would be a nice simplification.
2003-07-10 * Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create NixEelco Dolstra16-54/+154
archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar). * queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying the target path (which may be empty). * Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix. TODO: bootstrap Nix and install Nix as a Fix package.
2003-07-10 * Actually go through the search directories when looking for files.Eelco Dolstra1-9/+23
2003-07-10 * Deleted the sys directory.Eelco Dolstra6-150/+0
2003-07-10 * Moved the fetchutl package to corepkgs.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+12
2003-07-10 * Added a directory for standard Fix descriptors.Eelco Dolstra0-0/+0
2003-07-09 * Outline of the new scheme for derivate distribution.Eelco Dolstra4-4/+35
2003-07-09 * When computing the set of paths referenced by an expression, alsoEelco Dolstra4-44/+68
include the paths of the subterms.
2003-07-08 * Canonicalise paths so that Fix produces identical NixEelco Dolstra3-3/+4
expressions for identical inputs.
2003-07-08 * A path canonicaliser that doesn't depend on the existence of pathsEelco Dolstra2-5/+42
(i.e., it doesn't use realpath(3), which is broken in any case). Therefore it doesn't resolve symlinks.
2003-07-08 * The output of a Derive() node is not a referenced path.Eelco Dolstra2-3/+1
2003-07-08 * A command to query the paths referenced by an fstate expression.Eelco Dolstra6-97/+198
* Use a temporary directory for build actions.
2003-07-08 * Get `--dump' and `--delete' to work again.Eelco Dolstra1-51/+17
2003-07-08 * Renamed `id' -> `name' to remove the implication of uniqueness.Eelco Dolstra1-5/+5
2003-07-08 * deletePath() now removes the path from the hash2paths mapping.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+22
2003-07-08 * BaseName() primitive for the generation of more sensible namesEelco Dolstra1-0/+8
(especially in fetchurl.fix).
2003-07-08 * Get rid of the `netsources' database.Eelco Dolstra3-23/+10
* Rename the `refs' database to `hash2paths'.
2003-07-07 * `--realise' -> `--install'.Eelco Dolstra2-8/+5
2003-07-07 * Make dbRefs a mapping from Hash to [Path].Eelco Dolstra11-49/+172
2003-07-07 * Fixed `make check' as well.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2003-07-07 * Refactoring on the file names.Eelco Dolstra7-60/+17
2003-07-06 * A utility `nix-hash' to compute Nix path hashes.Eelco Dolstra3-4/+21
2003-07-06 * Bug fix: properly check result of open().Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2003-07-06 * Got Fix working again.Eelco Dolstra7-23/+298
2003-07-04 * Refactoring: move initialisation and argument parsing into a sharedEelco Dolstra5-52/+86
file.
2003-07-04 * Cleanup.Eelco Dolstra3-403/+9
2003-07-04 * Caching of expression successors.Eelco Dolstra8-43/+145

replacement.

2003-06-20 * Flags to indicate how values are specified on the command lineEelco Dolstra4-64/+137
(--hash, --file, --name).
