2015-02-23 TypoEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2015-02-23 Use chroots for all derivationsEelco Dolstra1-14/+22
If ‘build-use-chroot’ is set to ‘true’, fixed-output derivations are now also chrooted. However, unlike normal derivations, they don't get a private network namespace, so they can still access the network. Also, the use of the ‘__noChroot’ derivation attribute is no longer allowed. Setting ‘build-use-chroot’ to ‘relaxed’ gives the old behaviour.
2015-02-23 Add restricted evaluation modeEelco Dolstra1-0/+15
If ‘--option restrict-eval true’ is given, the evaluator will throw an exception if an attempt is made to access any file outside of the Nix search path. This is primarily intended for Hydra, where we don't want people doing ‘builtins.readFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa’ or stuff like that.

2015-01-08 nix-shell: Add --run flagEelco Dolstra1-5/+19
‘--run’ is like ‘--command’, except that it runs the command in a non-interactive shell. This is important if you do things like: $ nix-shell --command make Hitting Ctrl-C while make is running drops you into the interactive Nix shell, which is probably not what you want. So you can now do $ nix-shell --run make instead.
