2005-05-09 * Crazy: don't use real hashes of real components in examples, sinceEelco Dolstra2-5/+5
they cause Nix builds to have unnecessary retained dependences (e.g., on Subversion).
2005-05-08 * Lazily compute the derivation and output paths of derivations. ThisEelco Dolstra1-40/+63
makes most query and installation operations much faster (e.g., `nix-env -qa' on the current Nixpkgs is about 10 times faster).
2005-05-08 * ATermMap needs an assignment operator, otherwise we are screwed.Eelco Dolstra2-6/+36
2005-05-07 Commit 3000!Eelco Dolstra1-7/+23
* Make the `derivation' primitive much more lazy. The expression `derivation attrs' now evaluates to (essentially) attrs // { type = "derivation"; outPath = derivation! attrs; drvPath = derivation! attrs; } where `derivation!' is a primop that does the actual derivation instantiation (i.e., it does what `derivation' used to do). The advantage is that it allows commands such as `nix-env -qa' and `nix-env -i' to be much faster since they no longer need to instantiate all derivations, just the `name' attribute. (However, `nix-env' doesn't yet take advantage of this since it still always evaluates the `outPath' and `drvPath' attributes). Also, this allows derivations to cyclically reference each other, for example, webServer = derivation { ... hostName = "svn.cs.uu.nl"; services = [svnService]; }; svnService = derivation { ... hostName = webServer.hostName; }; Previously, this would yield a black hole (infinite recursion).
2005-05-07 * Don't try to register GC roots in read-only mode.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2005-05-07 * Build .tar.bz2 files in `make dist'.Eelco Dolstra2-2/+2
2005-05-06 * Mac OS X (and POSIX) doesn't have readlink.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2005-05-04 * Include some required header files.Eelco Dolstra3-1/+4
2005-05-04 * FreeBSD 4.x doesn't have stdint.h, use inttypes.h instead (which isEelco Dolstra3-3/+3
also part of ISO C).
2005-05-04 * Idem (constness fix).Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
* `compare' in GCC 2.95 is broken.
2005-05-04 * GCC 2.95 compatibility fix in constness; strangely, I think thisEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
should not have worked at all.
2005-05-04 * GCC 2.95 compatibility. Prevents internal compiler error in memberEelco Dolstra2-2/+2
template friends.
2005-05-04 * The eof() state isn't guaranteed to be set non-lazily. GCC 2.95Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
compatibility fix.
2005-05-04 * Use `$(MAKE)' instead of `make' for systems where `make' isn't GNUEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
make (such as FreeBSD).
2005-05-02 * Merge remaining stuff from the nix-make branch.Eelco Dolstra22-0/+347
* Add support for the creation of shared libraries to `compileC', `link', and `makeLibrary'. * Enable the ATerm library to be made into a shared library.
2005-05-02 * Merging from nix-make branch:Eelco Dolstra1-6/+40
- Add __currentTime primitive (dangerous!). - Allow imports of derivations.
2005-05-01 * Be quiet when untarring a channel file.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2005-04-13 * Remove redundant message.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+0
2005-04-12 * Argh! The patch downloader was broken due to the renaming of theEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
`--isvalid' flag in nix-store.
2005-04-12 * Garbage collector fix: allow deletion of paths that have invalidEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
(but substitutable) referers.
2005-04-12 * Damn. Disable the USE heuristic for now, since the deriver in theEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
database isn't always in the manifest (so the reference graph cannot be reconstructed fully).
2005-04-11 * Bump the version number to 0.9.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2005-04-11 * Mark date.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1

2005-04-08 * Lots of manual updates, in particular the new `nix-store --query'Eelco Dolstra11-177/+465
options were documented, as well as the Nix configuration file.
2005-04-08 * Make `nix-store --query --tree' work on non-derivations (i.e., onEelco Dolstra1-15/+13
any store path).
2005-04-08 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2005-04-07 * More doc updates.Eelco Dolstra2-53/+88
2005-04-07 * Get rid of fetchurl, we don't need it anymore.Eelco Dolstra6-49/+9
2005-04-07 * If store paths are specified as sources in Nix expressions, don'tEelco Dolstra1-8/+18
copy them, but use them directly.
2005-04-07 * Support base-32 hash representations.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+6
2005-04-07 * `nix-store --add-fixed' to preload the outputs of fixed-outputEelco Dolstra7-57/+152
derivations. This is mostly to simplify the implementation of nix-prefetch-{url, svn}, which now work properly in setuid installations. * Enforce valid store names in `nix-store --add / --add-fixed'.
