2004-03-15	* Added a utility that can be used to produce nice HTML pages from Nix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	build logs. The program `log2xml' converts a Nix build log (read from standard input) into XML file that can then be converted to XHTML by the `log2html.xsl' stylesheet. The CSS stylesheet `logfile.css' is necessary to make it look good. This is primarily useful if the log file has a tree structure, i.e., that sub-tasks such as the various phases of a build (unpack, configure, make, etc.) or recursive invocations of Make are represented as such. While a log file is in principle an unstructured plain text file, builders can communicate this tree structure to `log2xml' by using escape sequences: - "\e[p" starts a new nesting level; the first line following the escape code is the header; - "\e[q" ends the current nesting level. The generic builder in nixpkgs (not yet committed) uses this. It shouldn't be to hard to patch GNU Make to speak this protocol. Further improvements to the generated HTML pages are to allow collapsing/expanding of subtrees, and to abbreviate store paths (but to show the full path by hovering the mouse over it).
2004-03-15	* Make perl a dependency of Nix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5

2004-02-16	* Allow linking against an external Berkeley DB / ATerm library.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+28

2004-02-16	* Allow the location of the store to be specified (--with-store-dir).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5
	* Do not create stuff in localstatedir when doing `make install' (since we may not have write access). In general, installation of constant code/data should be separate from the initialisation of mutable state.
2004-01-30	* Detect flex and bison; updated the manual.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2004-01-02	* RPM sucks.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2004-01-02	* Generate RPM spec file.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2003-12-22	* GCC 2.95 compatibility.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+16

2003-12-01	* Use a system name that does not include the OS manufacturer (i.e.,	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+8
	"i686-linux" instead of "i686-suse-linux").
2003-11-26	* Typo fix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-11-26	* Configure flags to specify the location of the DocBook DTD / stylesheets.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+17

2003-11-25	* Use svn-revision to construct package version.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+5

2003-11-22	* Don't use a hard-coded path.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-11-19	* nix-env: a tool to manage user environments.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	* Replace all directory reading code by a generic readDirectory() function.
2003-11-19	* Refactoring (step 2).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-11-19	* Refactoring: put the Nix expression evaluator in its own library so	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	that it can be used by multiple programs.
2003-11-18	* Forgot this one.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-11-18	* nix -> nix-store, fix -> nix-instantiate.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2003-11-18	* libnix -> libstore.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-11-18	* Source tree refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-10-29	* Forked new version of Fix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-10-20	* Finished refactoring the tree.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+14

2003-10-16	* Substitutes and nix-pull now work again.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	* Fixed a segfault caused by the buffering of stderr. * Fix now allows the specification of the full output path. This should be used with great care, since it by-passes the normal hash generation. * Incremented the version number to 0.4 (prerelease).
2003-09-23	* Put the SVN revision number in the version string.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+8

2003-09-11	* Removed references to char_traits so that boost/format also works on	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+8
	GCC 2.95.
2003-08-20	* Bumped the version number to 0.3.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-08-12	* Generate man pages from the manual.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2

2003-08-06	* Scan for wget and use the full path in fetchurl.sh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	* Use nix-hash (not md5sum) in fetchurl.sh.
2003-07-28	* Check for the pthread library (db4 needs it on some platforms).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2003-07-23	* Incorporated Berkeley DB and ATerm into the source tree.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	* `make dist'.
2003-07-18	* Generate nar.sh, fetchurl.sh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3

2003-07-13	* Pass $(prefix) and other variables through -D..., not	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+0
	through config.h, to prevent silly Autoconf problems.
2003-07-10	* Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create Nix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2
	archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar). * queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying the target path (which may be empty). * Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix. TODO: bootstrap Nix and install Nix as a Fix package.
2003-07-04	* Caching of expression successors.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-06-20	* Move most of Nix into a library (libnix.a).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	* Run `test' on `make check'.
2003-06-18	* Automake sucks.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-06-17	* Started integrating the new evaluation model into Nix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+6
	* Cleaned up command-line syntax.
2003-04-09	* We no longer use nix-populate standalone, rather we use it as a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	build action for `system' packages (like system.fix) that have dependencies on all packages we want to activate. So the command sequence to switch to a new activation configuration of the system would be: $ fix -i .../fixdescriptors/system.fix ... system.fix -> 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f $ nix-switch 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f * A nix-profile.sh script that can be included in .bashrc.
2003-04-08	* Descriptor importing in Fix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-04-08	* `Fix' is a high-level descriptor instantiator for Nix. It replaces	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0
	nix-instantiate.
2003-04-06	* Better installation: make directories, create database.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2
	* Fixed the register script.
2003-04-04	* Autoconf / Automake configuration and building.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+14
