2012-04-30 | * Add an option ‘build-use-substitutes’, which can be set to ‘false’ | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+9 | |
to disable use of substitutes; i.e., force building from source. Fixes Nix/221. | |||||
2012-04-30 | Support mandatory system features in the build hook | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+14 | |
Mandatory features are features that MUST be present in a derivation's requiredSystemFeatures attribute. One application is performance testing, where we have a dedicated machine to run performance tests (and nothing else). Then we would add the label "perf" to the machine's mandatory features and to the performance testing derivations. | |||||
2012-04-30 | Update the documentation of build-remote.pl | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -96/+62 | |
2012-04-17 | nix-instantiate: default to "default.nix" if no arguments are given | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+3 | |
2012-04-17 | Added utility command ‘nix-instantiate --find-file’ to look up a file in ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+14 | |
Nix's search path | |||||
2012-04-14 | nix-channel improvements | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -17/+36 | |
"nix-channel --add" now accepts a second argument: the channel name. This allows channels to have a nicer name than (say) nixpkgs_unstable. If no name is given, it defaults to the last component of the URL (with "-unstable" or "-stable" removed). Also, channels are now stored in a profile (/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/$USER/channels). One advantage of this is that it allows rollbacks (e.g. if "nix-channel --update" gives an undesirable update). | |||||
2012-04-13 | Add the '--show-progress' flag to nix-copy-closure | Shea Levy | 1 | -0/+8 | |
2012-04-08 | Nix is on github now | Shea Levy | 1 | -4/+4 | |
2012-04-06 | Fix building from the tarball | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2012-04-06 | Documentation fix | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+3 | |
2012-04-06 | Include environment variables in the manpages | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -2/+37 | |

2012-04-06 | Add a missing DocBook source file to the tarball | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
Reported on IRC by Adrian Siekierka. | |||||
2012-03-26 | Remove the --max-links GC option | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -11/+0 | |
We don't need this anymore now that current filesystems support more than 32,000 files in a directory. | |||||
2012-03-18 | Drop the externals directory | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -17/+30 | |
Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed. SQLite is detected using pkg-config. We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so depending on SQLite is not a big problem. The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone. | |||||
2012-01-17 | * Added a command ‘nix-store --print-env $drvpath’ that prints out the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
environment of the given derivation in a format that can be sourced by the shell, e.g. $ eval "$(nix-store --print-env $(nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixpkgs -A pkg))" $ NIX_BUILD_TOP=/tmp $ source $stdenv/setup This is especially useful to reproduce the environment used to build a package outside of its builder for development purposes. TODO: add a nix-build option to do the above and fetch the dependencies of the derivation as well. | |||||
2012-01-13 | * nix-build: put the temporary derivation symlink in a temporary | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -24/+16 | |
directory rather than the current directory. * nix-build: --drv-link now implies --add-drv-link. | |||||
2011-12-30 | * Follow our own coding conventions. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -65/+61 | |
2011-12-30 | * Remove a redundant dot (Nicolas Pierron). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2011-12-30 | * Fix doc error. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2011-12-01 | doc/manual/nix-env.xml: fixed "nix-env -qaA" typo | Peter Simons | 1 | -1/+1 | |

2011-11-23 | * Document the --include-outputs option. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -9/+18 | |
2011-11-23 | * Add bzip2 and xz support to nix-copy-closure. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+8 | |
2011-11-03 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2011-11-03 | * The Nix configuration file is usually /etc/nix/nix.conf. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2011-11-02 | * Fix permission on /nix/store in the manual for multi-user installs | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
(reported by Silvio Frischknecht). | |||||
2011-09-06 | * Added a command ‘nix-store --verify-paths PATHS’ to check whether | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
the contents of any of the given store paths have been modified. E.g. $ nix-store --verify-path $(nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system) path `/nix/store/m2smyiwbxidlprfxfz4rjlvz2c3mg58y-etc' was modified! expected hash `fc87e271c5fdf179b47939b08ad13440493805584b35e3014109d04d8436e7b8', got `20f1a47281b3c0cbe299ce47ad5ca7340b20ab34246426915fce0ee9116483aa' All paths are checked; the exit code is 1 if any path has been modified, 0 otherwise. | |||||
2011-08-06 | * Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown. | |||||
2011-07-13 | * Allow a default value in attribute selection by writing | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
x.y.z or default (as originally proposed in https://mail.cs.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2009-September/002989.html). For instance, an expression like stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args can now be written as args.features.ckSched or false | |||||
2011-06-30 | doc: Fix typo. | Ludovic Courtès | 1 | -0/+2 | |
2011-06-30 | Add support for the `build-timeout' and `--timeout' options. | Ludovic Courtès | 4 | -0/+41 | |
2011-03-15 | * Fix a bug in the documentation (reported by Olexiy Buyanskyy, | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
Nix/215). | |||||
2010-11-17 | * Add an operation `nix-store -q --size'. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+16 | |
