2006-03-09	* Regression: semantics of the result of getDerivation() changed.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2006-03-09	* Big speedup (factor > 2.5) in all nix-env operations that do actual	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+14
	instantiation, e.g. "nix-env -i" and "nix-env -qas" (but not "nix-env -qa"). It turns out that many redundant calls to addToStore(path) were made, which reads and hashes the entire path. For instance, the bash bootstrap binary in Nixpkgs would be read and hashed many times. As a result nix-env would spend around 92% of its time in the function sha256_block (according to callgrind). Some simple memoization fixes this.
2006-03-08	* When obtaining derivations from Nix expressions, ignore all	Eelco Dolstra	3	-70/+98
	expressions that cause an assertion failure (like `assert system == "i686-linux"'). This allows all-packages.nix in Nixpkgs to be used on all platforms, even if some Nix expressions don't work on all platforms. Not sure if this is a good idea; it's a bit hacky. In particular, due to laziness some derivations might appear in `nix-env -qa' but disappear in `nix-env -qas' or `nix-env -i'. Commit 5000!
2006-03-08	* Some refactoring of the exception handling code so that we can catch	Eelco Dolstra	5	-22/+45
	Nix expression assertion failures.
2006-03-06	* GCC 4.1 compatibility.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-03-06	* `nix-env (-i\|-u) --dry-run' now shows exactly which missing paths	Eelco Dolstra	9	-22/+120
	will be built or substituted.
2006-03-06	* Regularise help text a bit.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-4/+4

2006-03-03	* More online help.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+15

2006-03-03	* Rewrote nix-build in Perl, since sh is just too limited (turns out	Eelco Dolstra	1	-78/+87
	that arrays are a bash extension, so it didn't work on FreeBSD). Also fixes NIX-8 (readlink(1) dependency).
2006-03-01	* Tests for fixed-output derivations (and attribute selection, incidentally).	Eelco Dolstra	5	-1/+67

2006-03-01	* Tests to prevent a repeat of the parseHash32 debacle.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7

2006-03-01	* Flags `--to-base32' and `--to-base16' to convert between hex and	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+19
	base-32 hashes.
2006-03-01	* Ouch, parseHash32 was completely broken. All digits >= 4 were	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	parsed as 4. For a moment I worried that printHash32 was broken, and that would have been really, really bad ;-)
2006-03-01	* db.hh shouldn't depend on the Berkeley DB headers.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-3/+13

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-03-01	* Close the database before the destructor runs.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-0/+15

2006-03-01	* More test coverage.	Eelco Dolstra	7	-0/+15

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store -q --binding'.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+3

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store --add' and `nix-store -q --hash'.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-4/+17

2006-03-01	* New suppressions.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+54

2006-03-01	* Uninitialised variable. Fixes the --delete test.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-03-01	* Wrong delete. Thanks valgrind.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-03-01	* TDD! Woohoo!	Eelco Dolstra	5	-2/+22

2006-03-01	* Oops!	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+3

2006-03-01	* Test the nix-store --gc subflags.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+11

2006-03-01	* Test nix-build. This also tests indirect roots.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-4/+24

2006-03-01	* Clear the substitutes prior to running the test.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-03-01	* Add a test for nix-log2xml.	Eelco Dolstra	7	-8/+41

2006-03-01	* Generate valid HTML.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-15/+22

2006-03-01	* Remove dead code.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-30/+0

2006-03-01	* Simplification.	Eelco Dolstra	21	-67/+77

2006-03-01	* Make it easy to run individual tests from the command line.	Eelco Dolstra	23	-33/+78

2006-02-24	* Remove debug statement.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+0

2006-02-24	* A script to remove from a manifest those patches whose base or	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+77
	target no longer applies to any available release. This is a partial fix for NIX-34 (when producing linear patch sequences between releases, the number of patches grows without bound).
2006-02-24	* Canonicalise manifests a bit by sorting them.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2006-02-22	* Aha!	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+2

2006-02-22	* WTF?	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2006-02-22	* Separate the cache reading code.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-25/+28

2006-02-22	* Directory for nix.cs.uu.nl manifest / cache maintenance scripts.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+2

2006-02-22	* Use right directories for NAR files and patches.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+5
	* Print errors to STDERR.
2006-02-22	* More tests.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+10

2006-02-22	* Check whether "nix-store -q --graph" generates a valid dot graph.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+19
	* Test "nix-store -q --tree" as well.
2006-02-17	* In "nix-env -i", print a warning if there are multiple derivations	Eelco Dolstra	1	-24/+16
	with the same name and version number, and pick the first one (this means that the order in which channels appear in ~/.nix-channels matters). E.g.: $ nix-env ii aterm warning: there are multiple derivations named `aterm-2.4.2'; using the first one installing `aterm-2.4.2'
2006-02-17	* Fix for NIX-31: "nix-env -i foo" installing all derivations named	Eelco Dolstra	2	-10/+64
	foo. Now it will only install the one with the highest version number.
2006-02-17	* And another test.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5

2006-02-17	* Regression test for NIX-31.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+16

2006-02-17	* Fix the infamous NIX-17: nix-env -i prints misleading messages	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+9
	("installing `foo'" followed by "uninstalling `foo'").
2006-02-16	* Allow the size of the GC reserved file to be specified in nix.conf	Eelco Dolstra	5	-14/+62
	through the new `gc-reserved-space' option.
2006-02-16	* A simple hack to fix NIX-18: the garbage collector cannot run when	Eelco Dolstra	3	-4/+24
	the disk is full (because to delete something from the Nix store, we need a Berkeley DB transaction, which takes up disk space). Under normal operation, we make sure that there exists a file /nix/var/nix/db/reserved of 1 MB. When running the garbage collector, we delete that file before we open the Berkeley DB environment.
