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 | |||||

Actually, don't use quotes at all. (Reported by Howard B. Golden.) | |||||

2009-12-09 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+40 | |
2009-11-23 | * A command `nix-store --query --roots <paths>' to find the garbage | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+22 | |
collector roots that point (directly or indirectly) to the given paths. | |||||
2009-11-20 | * Remove the --use-atime / --max-atime garbage collector flags. Many | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -45/+0 | |
(Linux) machines no longer maintain the atime because it's too expensive, and on the machines where --use-atime is useful (like the buildfarm), reading the atimes on the entire Nix store takes way too much time to make it practical. | |||||
2009-11-06 | * Remove support for old (before Nix 0.12pre12020) databases. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -7/+0 | |

2009-06-30 | * Don't show trace information by default (`--show-trace' to enable). | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+9 | |
NixOS evaluation errors in particular look intimidating and generally aren't very useful. Ideally the builtins.throw messages should be self-contained. | |||||
2009-06-13 | * Canonicalise timestamps in the Nix store to 1 (1970-01-01 00:00:01 | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
UTC) rather than 0 (00:00:00). 1 is a better choice because some programs use 0 as a special value. For instance, the Template Toolkit uses a timestamp of 0 to denote the non-existence of a file, so it barfs on files in the Nix store (see template-toolkit-nix-store.patch in Nixpkgs). Similarly, Maya 2008 fails to load script directories with a timestamp of 0 and can't be patched because it's closed source. This will also shut up those "implausibly old time stamp" GNU tar warnings. | |||||
