Let's step in line with time and document more realistic values.
2016-08-10 HttpBinaryCacheStore: Retry on transient HTTP errorsEelco Dolstra3-14/+34
This makes us more robust against 500 errors from CloudFront or S3 (assuming the 500 error isn't cached by CloudFront...).

2016-08-10 LocalFSStore::narFromPath(): Handle the diverted store caseEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2016-08-10 Add a "root" parameter to local storesEelco Dolstra5-5/+13
This makes it easier to create a diverted store, i.e. NIX_REMOTE="local?root=/tmp/root" instead of NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/root/nix/store&state=/tmp/root/nix/var/nix" NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/root/nix/var/log

2016-08-10 Remove scripts/show-duplication.plShea Levy1-73/+0
Was added in 2006 to "measure the cost of the Nix approach". Given that it uses /usr/bin/perl, I think this is safe to remove.

2016-08-04 Dockerfile: Add alpine dependencies (#1011)Aneesh Agrawal1-1/+3
* Dockerfile: add GNU tar native dependency `builtins.fetchTarball` requires GNU tar to be available in the $PATH in order to unpack the fetched tarball (there is a FIXME comment for this), which Alpine does not ship by default (it ships BusyBox tar). * Dockerfile: add GNU bash native dependency `nix-shell` defaults to invoking `bash` from the $PATH for the subshell. In theory this can be overriden with the NIX_BUILD_SHELL environment variable, but this does not work properly. `nix-shell` generates and passes a script (`$rcFile`) to be executed by the subshell which uses bashisms (`source` and `shopt`). Additionally, in interactive mode, `nix-shell` passes the `--rcfile` argument to the shell, which is another bashism. Because `bash` is thus de-facto required, add `bash` as a native package dependency to make it available for `nix-shell`.
2016-07-29 Set $MANPATH (#1005)Alexey Shmalko1-0/+4
Currently, man has issues finding man pages for Nix-installed application (also, `nix-env --help` doesn't work). The issue is caused by custom `$MANPATH` set by my system. That makes man use it instead of searching in default location. Either of next lines workaround the issue: ```sh unset MANPATH export MANPATH=$HOME/.nix-profile/share/man:$MANPATH ``` This patch adds the later line to the `nix-profile.sh` if user has `MANPATH` set. (Not clearing `MANPATH` as that would be disrespect of user's preferences.) As a side-effect, host's man might find man pages installed by Nix.

2016-07-21 Store::queryMissing(): Use a thread poolEelco Dolstra1-85/+104
For one particular NixOS configuration, this cut the runtime of "nix-store -r --dry-run" from 6m51s to 3.4s. It also fixes a bug in the size calculation that was causing certain paths to be counted twice, e.g. before: these paths will be fetched (1249.98 MiB download, 2995.74 MiB unpacked): and after: these paths will be fetched (1219.56 MiB download, 2862.17 MiB unpacked):

2016-07-21 NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS path must be absolute (#957)Matthias Beyer1-1/+2
Once upon a time, I wrote my bachelors thesis about functional deployment mechanisms. I had to evaluate several szenarios where package management and deployment were relevant. One szenario was to do distributed builds over several machines. I told myself: Weee, nix can do this! And with nix, this is actually save, as you do not have side effects when building! So I started. I use a cloud to set up four virtual machines where I wanted to do the build. A fifth machine was used as master to distribute the builds. All was good. I created the necessary SSH keys, made sure every machine was reachable by the master and configured the build in my remotes.conf. When I started to try to build weechat from source, the build failed. It failed, telling me error: unable to start any build; either increase ‘--max-jobs’ or enable distributed builds And I started to dig around. I digged long and good. But I wasn't able to find the issue. I double and triple checked my environment variables, my settings, the SSH key and everything. I reached out to fellow Nixers by asking on the nixos IRC channel. And I got help. But we weren't able to find the issue, either. So I became frustrated. I re-did all the environment variables. And suddenly,... it worked! What did I change? Well... I made the environment variables which contained pathes contain absolute pathes rather than relatives. And because I like to share my knowledge, this should be put into the documentation, so others do not bang their heads against the wall because something is not documented somewhere.
