2006-11-30	* Troubleshooting information on fixing a b0rked Berkeley DB database.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-13/+45

2006-11-14	* Push.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2

2006-11-13	* Magic attribute `exportReferencesGraph' that allows the references	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+5
	graph to be passed to a builder. This attribute should be a list of pairs [name1 path1 name2 path2 ...]. The references graph of each `pathN' will be stored in a text file `nameN' in the temporary build directory. The text files have the format used by `nix-store --register-validity'. However, the deriver fields are left empty. `exportReferencesGraph' is useful for builders that want to do something with the closure of a store path. Examples: the builders that make initrds and ISO images for NixOS. `exportReferencesGraph' is entirely pure. It's necessary because otherwise the only way for a builder to get this information would be to call `nix-store' directly, which is not allowed (though unfortunately possible).
2006-11-13	* Option `--reregister' in `nix-store --register-validity'. We need	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+4
	this in the NixOS installer (or in the buildfarm) to ensure that the cryptographic hash of the path contents still matches the actual contents.
2006-10-30	* Release notes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+14

2006-10-28	* `nix-store --read-log / -l PATH' shows the build log of PATH, if	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+17
	available. For instance, $ nix-store -l $(which svn) \| less lets you read the build log of the Subversion instance in your profile. * `nix-store -qb': if applied to a non-derivation, take the deriver.
2006-10-26	* Typo reported by Arie Middelkoop.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+4
	* Left out close-quote in example.
2006-10-11	* Removed URIs from the evaluator (NIX-66). They are now just another	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+9
	kind of notation for strings.

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).

2006-08-23	* Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+17
	$ nix-env -qa --system-filter \* --arg system '"powerpc-darwin"' to override the system from the default value (__currentSystem in all-packages.nix).
2006-08-22	* Release notes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-13/+132

2006-08-21	* Convert to DocBook 5.	Eelco Dolstra	23	-299/+364
	* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy.
2006-08-01	* Ugh. Darwin's chmod insists that flags come before the mode	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	specification.
2006-07-25	* Doh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-07-25	* Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do,	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	e.g., $ nix-env -i -A subversion xorg.xorgserver The main advantage over using symbolic names is that using attribute names is unambiguous and much, much faster.
