2009-03-28 * Simplify communication with the hook a bit (don't use fileEelco Dolstra1-7/+2
descriptors 3/4, just use stdin/stderr).
2009-03-28 * Clean up the output a bit.Eelco Dolstra1-5/+5
2009-02-03 * Build hook: compress the transferred data.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2009-02-02 * Build hooks: use nix-store --import. This prevents a redundantEelco Dolstra1-13/+2
scan for runtime dependencies (i.e. the local machine shouldn't do a scan that the remote machine has already done). Also pipe directly into `nix-store --import': don't use a temporary file.
2009-01-13 * When using a build hook, distinguish between transient failuresEelco Dolstra1-2/+10
(e.g. an SSH connection problem) and permanent failures (i.e. the builder failed). This matters to Hydra (it wants to know whether it makes sense to retry a build).

2008-12-04 * Propagate --max-silent-time to remote machines.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+6
2008-12-04 * Prefer building on a remote machine over a local machine. ThisEelco Dolstra1-5/+6
makes more sense for the build farm, otherwise every nix-store invocation will lead to at least one local build. Will come up with a better solution later...
2008-12-04 * When using build hooks, for any nix-store -r build operation, it isEelco Dolstra1-6/+6
necessary that at least one build hook doesn't return "postpone", otherwise nix-store will barf ("waiting for a build slot, yet there are no running children"). So inform the build hook when this is the case, so that it can start a build even when that would exceed the maximum load on a machine.
2008-12-04 * Force allocation of a pseudo-terminal to clean up the remoteEelco Dolstra1-1/+6
nix-store process when the connection is interrupted.
2008-12-04 * Support multiple system types per remote machine, e.g. a machineEelco Dolstra1-24/+24
list like root@example.org x86_64-linux /root/.ssh/id_buildfarm 1 root@example.org i686-darwin /root/.ssh/id_buildfarm 1 This is possible when the Nix installation on example.org itself has remote builds enabled.
2007-11-15 * Add build-remote.pl to the Nix distribution.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+208
