| 2004-08-25 | * `--min-age' flag in nix-store and nix-collect-garbage to only delete | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+23 | |
| unreachable paths that haven't been used for N hours. For instance, `nix-collect-garbage --min-age 168' only deletes paths that haven't been accessed in the last week. This is useful for instance in the build farm where many derivations can be shared between consecutive builds, and we wouldn't want a garbage collect to throw them all away. We could of course register them as roots, but then we'd to unregister them at some point, which would be a pain to manage. The `--min-age' flag gives us a sort of MRU caching scheme. BUG: this really shouldn't be in gc.cc since that violates mechanism/policy separation. | |||||
| 2004-08-25 | * `nix-collect-garbage' now actually performs a garbage collection, it | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -41/+88 | |
| doesn't just print the set of paths that should be deleted. So there is no more need to pipe the result into `nix-store --delete' (which doesn't even exist anymore). | |||||
| 2004-08-18 | * The default verbosity level of all Nix commands is now lvlInfo. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -9/+8 | |
| * Builder output is written to standard error by default. * The option `-B' is gone. * The option `-Q' suppresses builder output. The result of this is that most Nix invocations shouldn't need any flags w.r.t. logging. | |||||
| 2004-06-28 | * By default, `nix-env -i' now deletes previously installed | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+37 | |
| derivations with names matching the derivations being installed. The option `--preserve-installed / -P' overrides this behaviour. | |||||
| 2004-06-28 | * `nix-env -u' now allows a specific version to be specified when | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+3 | |
| upgrading. This fixes a bug reported by Martin: $ nix-env -i foo-1.0 $ nix-env -u foo-1.0 upgrading foo-1.0 to foo-1.1 | |||||
| 2004-06-28 | * Added a switch `--fallback'. From the manual: | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+26 | |
| Whenever Nix attempts to realise a derivation for which a closure is already known, but this closure cannot be realised, fall back on normalising the derivation. The most common scenario in which this is useful is when we have registered substitutes in order to perform binary distribution from, say, a network repository. If the repository is down, the realisation of the derivation will fail. When this option is specified, Nix will build the derivation instead. Thus, binary installation falls back on a source installation. This option is not the default since it is generally not desirable for a transient failure in obtaining the substitutes to lead to a full build from source (with the related consumption of resources). | |||||
| 2004-06-25 | * A flag `--keep-going / -k' to keep building goals if one fails, as | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+36 | |
| much as possible. (This is similar to GNU Make's `-k' flag.) * Refactoring to implement this: previously we just bombed out when a build failed, but now we have to clean up. In particular this means that goals must be freed quickly --- they shouldn't hang around until the worker exits. So the worker now maintains weak pointers in order not to prevent garbage collection. * Documented the `-k' and `-j' flags. | |||||
| 2004-04-26 | * Only add `-preRELEASE' to the version if STABLE != 1. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+30 | |
| * Documented release procedures. | |||||
| 2004-04-08 | * Documented the primops. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -3/+102 | |

| 2004-02-10 | * Lots of manual stuff. Reference pages for most Nix commands. | Eelco Dolstra | 12 | -20/+674 | |
| * nix-pull now requires the full url to the manifest, i.e., `/MANIFEST/' is no longer automatically appended. * nix-prefetch-url works again. | |||||
| 2004-02-10 | * Documented the most important nix-env flags. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -5/+448 | |
| 2004-02-06 | * Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g., | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -27/+29 | |
| default -> default-94-link default-82-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... default-83-link -> /nix/store/caeec8... ... default-94-link -> /nix/store/2896ca... experimental -> experimental-2-link experimental-1-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... experimental-2-link -> /nix/store/a3148f... * `--profile' / `-p' -> `--switch-profile' / `-S' * `--link' / `-l' -> `--profile' / `-p' * The default profile is stored in $prefix/var/nix/profiles. $prefix/var/nix/links is gone. Profiles can be stored anywhere. * The current profile is now referenced from ~/.nix-profile, not ~/.nix-userenv. * The roots to the garbage collector now have extension `.gcroot', not `.id'. | |||||
