2018-04-30 nix-collect-garbage: little doc fixDanylo Hlynskyi1-6/+0
This removes confusing documentation. It's better to remove doc than add implementation, because Nix 1.12 will surely have new GC interface anyway. Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/641

2018-04-12 Add to glossary and clarify garbage collectionSean Seefried3-16/+44
While trying to understand garbage collection it was not immediately clear that only the runtime dependency closure of output paths would be kept (instead of the build-time dependency closure). This commit attempts to clarify this by expanding some of the glossary definitions and extending the Garbage Collection section.

2018-02-22 Revert "Enable sandbox builds on Linux by default"Eelco Dolstra1-4/+0
This reverts commit ddc58e789636e1b94149c342575d92583251fbf6. https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1435322

2018-02-22 Enable sandbox builds on Linux by defaultEelco Dolstra2-3/+5
The overhead of sandbox builds is a problem on NixOS (since building a NixOS configuration involves a lot of small derivations) but not for typical non-NixOS use cases. So outside of NixOS we can enable it. Issue #179.

2018-02-21 Manual: Update chapter on remote buildsEelco Dolstra2-70/+156
Alos add a command "nix ping-store" to make it easier to see if Nix can connect to a remote builder (e.g. 'nix ping-store --store ssh://mac').

This enables plugins to add new constants, as well as new primops.
2018-02-08 Add plugins to make Nix more extensible.Shea Levy2-0/+34
All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix supports.
2018-02-07 Merge pull request #1816 from shlevy/add-pathEelco Dolstra1-2/+72
Add path primop.
2018-02-06 Add path primop.Shea Levy1-2/+72
builtins.path allows specifying the name of a path (which makes paths with store-illegal names now addable), allows adding paths with flat instead of recursive hashes, allows specifying a filter (so is a generalization of filterSource), and allows specifying an expected hash (enabling safe path adding in pure mode).
2018-02-03 Remove nix-build --hashEelco Dolstra1-5/+5
Instead, if a fixed-output derivation produces has an incorrect output hash, we now unconditionally move the outputs to the path corresponding with the actual hash and register it as valid. Thus, after correcting the hash in the Nix expression (e.g. in a fetchurl call), the fixed-output derivation doesn't have to be built again. It would still be good to have a command for reporting the actual hash of a fixed-output derivation (instead of throwing an error), but "nix-build --hash" didn't do that.
