2003-10-02 * Include the right files in a distribution.Eelco Dolstra3-3/+3
2003-10-02 * Nix now respects $TMPDIR for the creation of temporary build directories.Eelco Dolstra3-5/+24
* Retry creation of a temporary directory (with a different name) in the case of EEXIST.
2003-09-24 * Argggg...Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2003-09-24 * Forgot a file.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2003-09-24 * Added missing files to `make dist'.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+5
2003-09-23 * Put the SVN revision number in the version string.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+8
2003-09-11 * Removed references to char_traits so that boost/format also works onEelco Dolstra15-239/+222
GCC 2.95.
2003-09-11 * Added some missing #includes.Eelco Dolstra4-0/+7
2003-09-03 * Make nicer dot graphs. Also show the inner structure of slices.Eelco Dolstra2-15/+86
2003-09-03 * Factored out dot graph generation into a separate file.Eelco Dolstra4-61/+76
2003-08-29 * Do not show the output of the builder unless the verbosity is atEelco Dolstra1-1/+5
least at debug level (-vvv). The output is still appended to the build log in /nix/var/log/nix.
2003-08-28 * Set a path.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+2
2003-08-28 * Do not try to remove write permission from symlinks, since chmod()Eelco Dolstra2-3/+3
follows symlinks. (Note that the permissions on symlinks are ignored anyway.)
2003-08-28 * nix-push generated invalid (old-style) slices.Eelco Dolstra2-1/+3
* nar.sh needs a path.
2003-08-25 * Fix the atrocious (exponential? factorial?) time complexity inEelco Dolstra1-4/+9
`nix --query --requisites'.
2003-08-25 * Don't continue when the call to nix fails.Eelco Dolstra1-3/+11
2003-08-22 * Remove write permission from output paths after they have been built.Eelco Dolstra3-6/+52
* Point $HOME to a non-existing path when building to prevent certain tools (such as wget) from falling back on /etc/passwd to locate the home directory (which we don't want them to look at since it's not declared as an input).
2003-08-22 * Some work on the introduction.Eelco Dolstra1-10/+117
2003-08-20 * Use maps and sets in the FState data type. This ensures normalisation ofEelco Dolstra5-105/+86
slices and derivations w.r.t. order of paths, slice elements, etc.
2003-08-20 * Change the abstract syntax of slices. It used to be that ids were used asEelco Dolstra4-61/+59
keys to reference slice elements, e.g., Slice(["1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["8c99..."]), ...]) This was wrong, since ids represent contents, not locations. Therefore we now have: Slice(["/nix/store/1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["/nix/store/8c99-..."]), ...]) * Fix a bug in the computation of slice closures that could cause slice elements to be duplicated.
2003-08-20 * Bumped the version number to 0.3.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2003-08-20 * Fixed a serious bug in the computation of slices. Sometimes the slicesEelco Dolstra1-20/+61
would not be properly closed under the path reference relation.
2003-08-19 * Pipe /dev/null into stdin.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+10
2003-08-19 * Delete the temporary directories of failed builds by default, and anEelco Dolstra6-1/+34
option `--keep-failed' to override this behaviour.
2003-08-18 * Allow lists in package bindings, e.g.,Eelco Dolstra1-0/+12
("srcs", [Relative("foo/bar.c"), Relative("foo/baz.h")]) The result is an environment variable that contains the path names of the inputs separated by spaces (so this is not safe for values containing spaces).
2003-08-18 * Most shells initialise PATH to some default (/bin:/usr/bin:...)Eelco Dolstra1-0/+5
when PATH is not set. We don't want this, so fill it in with some dummy value.
2003-08-18 * Revision 300!Eelco Dolstra1-8/+8
* Put `@' in front of echo's in the Makefile.
2003-08-18 * No longer automatically download Berkeley DB / ATerm.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+10
2003-08-15 * Argument support in Fix. Arguments can be passed through theEelco Dolstra3-20/+61
builder using the `args' binding: ("args", ["bla", True, IncludeFix("aterm/aterm.fix")]) Note that packages can also be declared as inputs by specifying them in the argument list.
2003-08-15 * Derivation expressions now can specify arguments to be passed to theEelco Dolstra5-20/+56
builder. Note that this unfortunately causes all Fix-computed hashes to change.
2003-08-15 * A script `nix-prefetch-url' to fetch a URL, place it in the NixEelco Dolstra4-5/+64
store, and print its hash.
2003-08-15 * Don't use a temporary file.Eelco Dolstra1-9/+14
2003-08-15 * Fix can now read expressions from stdin (by saying `fix -').Eelco Dolstra1-1/+17
2003-08-14 * Use a catalog when calling xsltproc.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+8
2003-08-14 * Use xmllint instead of nsgmls to validate the manual.Eelco Dolstra2-4/+5
2003-08-14 * Function application test cases.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+27
2003-08-14 * Detect infinite loops using blackholing.Eelco Dolstra2-3/+14
2003-08-14 * Fix man page.Eelco Dolstra3-3/+42
2003-08-14 * Function() takes a list of formals.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+14
2003-08-14 * Lam -> Function. Doh!Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2003-08-13 * Manual updates.Eelco Dolstra3-14/+115
2003-08-13 * Put the pre-built manual and man pages in the tar distribution.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+2
2003-08-13 * Documented the `--query' operation.Eelco Dolstra3-2/+232
2003-08-13 * Split the book.xml into several xml files.Eelco Dolstra7-470/+481
2003-08-12 * Documented some Nix operations.Eelco Dolstra1-10/+159
2003-08-12 * Generate man pages from the manual.Eelco Dolstra6-14/+92
2003-08-08 * deletePath(): some operating systems (e.g., Mac OS X) don't like itEelco Dolstra1-1/+8
when we delete entries from a directory while we are reading it. So read the directory into memory, then delete its contents.
2003-08-07 * Started on the introduction.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+189
2003-08-07 * Start of manual; installation instructions.Eelco Dolstra2-4/+107
2003-08-06 * Allow a name to be given to a system configuration through `--name Eelco Dolstra1-3/+7
NAME'. E.g., on the losser Subversion server, I do `nix-switch --name svn $(fix ...)' to atomically upgrade the server (the SVN server uses the Apache and Subversion installations in /nix/var/nix/links/svn).
