2003-08-14	* Detect infinite loops using blackholing.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+14

2003-08-14	* Fix man page.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-3/+42

2003-08-14	* Function() takes a list of formals.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+14

2003-08-14	* Lam -> Function. Doh!	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-08-13	* Manual updates.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-14/+115

2003-08-13	* Put the pre-built manual and man pages in the tar distribution.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2003-08-13	* Documented the `--query' operation.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-2/+232

2003-08-13	* Split the book.xml into several xml files.	Eelco Dolstra	7	-470/+481

2003-08-12	* Documented some Nix operations.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+159

2003-08-12	* Generate man pages from the manual.	Eelco Dolstra	6	-14/+92

2003-08-08	* deletePath(): some operating systems (e.g., Mac OS X) don't like it	Eelco Dolstra	1	-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 Dolstra	1	-2/+189

2003-08-07	* Start of manual; installation instructions.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-4/+107

2003-08-06	* Allow a name to be given to a system configuration through `--name	Eelco Dolstra	1	-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).
2003-08-06	* `==' is not a valid operator.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-08-06	* Scan for wget and use the full path in fetchurl.sh.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-2/+5
	* Use nix-hash (not md5sum) in fetchurl.sh.
2003-08-06	* Allow locks on paths to be acquired recursively (that is, if the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+4
	process is already holding a lock on a path, it may acquire the lock again without blocking or failing). (This might be dangerous, not sure). Necessary for fast builds to work.
2003-08-06	* A flag `--flat' to just compute the MD5 checksum of the contents of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+7
	a regular file. I.e., `nix-hash --flat' is equivalent to the coreutils `md5sum' command (which doesn't exist on all systems).
2003-08-06	* App -> Call.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+8
	* Allow booleans in package environment bindings (True maps to "1", False maps to "").
2003-08-05	* Conditionals.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+33

2003-08-05	* Made nix-push much faster.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-18/+33

2003-08-05	* Cache result of fstatePaths(). TODO: do this in fstore.cc.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+17

2003-08-05	* Made nix-pull much faster by performing all Fix instantiations at	Eelco Dolstra	1	-14/+32
	the same time.
2003-08-05	* Allow the top-level expression to be a list of expressions that	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+19
	normalise to Nix expression.
2003-08-05	* Delete obstructed paths prior to building.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+12

2003-08-04	* Path locking in addToStore() and expandPath().	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+16

2003-08-01	* In normaliseFState(), wrap registration of the output paths and the	Eelco Dolstra	6	-28/+44
	normal form in a single transaction to ensure that if we crash, either everything is registered or nothing is. This is for recoverability: unregistered paths in the store can be deleted arbitrarily, while registered paths can only be deleted by running the garbage collector.
2003-08-01	* Defensive programming against POSIX locking idiocy.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-25/+18
	* Simplified realiseSlice().
2003-08-01	* normaliseFState() now locks all output paths prior to building, thus	Eelco Dolstra	5	-30/+151
	ensuring that simultaneous invocations of Nix don't clobber each other's builds. * Fixed a bug in `make install'.
2003-08-01	* Don't use substitutes in addToStore().	Eelco Dolstra	2	-15/+21

2003-07-31	* Put the database verifier in a transaction.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-17/+23

2003-07-31	* Enclose most operations that update the database
