2006-10-02 | * Document the new let. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -42/+29 | |
2006-10-02 | * Finally, a real "let" syntax: `let x = ...; ... z = ...; in ...'. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -3/+21 | |
2006-10-02 | * Hack for Bison 2.3 compatability. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+14 | |
2006-10-02 | * Manual updates (especially how nix-build makes testing packages much | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -81/+120 | |
easier; no longer need a helper expression). | |||||
2006-10-02 | * Manual. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+17 | |
2006-09-29 | * One-click installs. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+31 | |
2006-09-29 | * Document nix-install-package and the nixpkg file format. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -31/+237 | |
2006-09-29 | * Manual. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -6/+70 | |
2006-09-29 | * Manual updates, some style improvements. | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -52/+74 | |
2006-09-28 | * Manual updates. | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -11/+110 | |
* Documented nix-{pack,unpack}-closure. | |||||
2006-09-27 | * Fix setuid builds. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -9/+9 | |
2006-09-27 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -84/+131 | |
2006-09-27 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -42/+100 | |
2006-09-26 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+2 | |
2006-09-25 | * Use "propagated-user-env-packages", not "propagated-build-inputs" | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
for packages that should be propagated to the user environment. | |||||
2006-09-25 | * Propagated packages now have lower priority; they are symlinked | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -14/+39 | |
*after* the packages that have been explicitly installed, and collisions are ignored. | |||||
2006-09-25 | * Quick hack to let nix-install-package set the package name properly | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+12 | |
(e.g., "java-front-0.9pre15899" instead of "java-front"; particularly important when doing upgrades later on). | |||||
2006-09-25 | * In `nix-channel --update', skip manifests that assume a Nix store at | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+21 | |
a different location than the user's. This makes channels usable as a source deployment mechanism for people who install Nix under non-standard prefixes. (NIX-57) | |||||
2006-09-25 | * Clean up calls to system(). | Eelco Dolstra | 8 | -26/+26 | |
2006-09-25 | * Use builtins.toPath. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2006-09-24 | * The result of a concatenation with a derivation on the left-hand | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -4/+13 | |
side should be a path, I guess. * Handle paths that are in the store but not direct children of the store directory. * Ugh, hack to prevent double context wrapping. | |||||
2006-09-24 | * Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -7/+30 | |
* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence. | |||||
2006-09-24 | * Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -6/+22 | |
2006-09-24 | * lessThan primitive for integer comparison. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+13 | |
2006-09-22 | * Builtin function `add' to add integers. | Eelco Dolstra | 11 | -26/+68 | |
* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix. | |||||
2006-09-22 | * Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+29 | |
With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix). | |||||
2006-09-22 | * Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail of | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+39 | |
list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix). | |||||
2006-09-22 | * New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check for | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+27 | |
attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61) | |||||
2006-09-22 | * Use a bounded amount of memory in scanForReferences() by not reading | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -9/+26 | |
regular files into memory all at once. | |||||
2006-09-22 | * Supply the 64-bit ATerm patch, but don't apply it (since that | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+664 | |
requires rerunning Autoconf/Automake). Interested users should do that themselves. | |||||
2006-09-22 | * Don't allocate the buffer twice. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -7/+9 | |
2006-09-22 | * Don't allocate more than SIZE_MAX bytes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+7 | |
2006-09-22 | * Build with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to support files >= 2^31 bytes | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+5 | |
(NIX-22). | |||||
2006-09-21 | * GC options in nix-store --help (NIX-15). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+10 | |
2006-09-21 | * `nix-install-package --url': install from a URL (NIX-12). | Eelco Dolstra | 10 | -37/+152 | |
* `nix-install-package --help' (NIX-9). * `nix-install-package --non-interactive': don't prompt or pause. * Tests for nix-install-package. * Security fixes: filter the values obtained from the nixpkg. | |||||
2006-09-21 | * Fix comment. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+1 | |
2006-09-21 | * Try konsole and gnome-terminal in addition to xterm. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+3 | |
2006-09-20 | * Shut up a warning. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+1 | |
2006-09-20 | * Absolute path to rm (NIX-51). | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -5/+5 | |
* Don't hardcore /nix/bin and /nix/store. | |||||
2006-09-20 | * Print a better error message for wrong hashes (NIX-49). | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -4/+16 | |
2006-09-20 | * Check for patch (NIX-59). | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+3 | |
2006-09-20 | * Hide warnings about a missing "lsof" (NIX-54). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-09-20 | * Use paths, not strings, when calling the function that generates | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -10/+17 | |
NARs. Fixes the impurity of nix-push (NIX-21). * Better help. | |||||
2006-09-19 | * Doh. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+1 | |
2006-09-19 | * Doh! Of course we have to take execute permission into account. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+9 | |
* Restore the mtime on modified directories. | |||||
2006-09-19 | * `optimise-store.pl' reduces disk space consumption by hard-linking | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -16/+40 | |
all identitical files in the Nix store to each other. (Previously it only computed the size that would be saved by doing so.) | |||||
2006-09-19 | * Cleanups. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -19/+12 | |
2006-09-19 | * `show-duplication.pl', a small utility that shows the amount of | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+73 | |
package duplication present in (e.g.) a profile. It shows the number of instances of each package in a closure, along with the size in bytes of each instance as well as the "waste" (the difference between the sum of the sizes of all instances and the average size). $ ./show-duplication.pl /nix/var/nix/profiles/default gcc 11 3.3.6 19293318 3.4.4 21425257 ... average 14942970, waste 149429707 coreutils 6 ... average package duplication 1.87628865979381, total size 3486330471, total waste 1335324237, 38.3017114443825% wasted This utility is useful for measuring the cost in terms of disk space of the Nix approach. | |||||
2006-09-14 | * Wow, that bug has been there since r764. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2006-09-14 | * nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations / | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+9 | |
--delete-generations: lock the profile to prevent (extremely unlikely) race conditions. |
