2005-01-25	* In nix-store: change `--build' back to `--realise'. Also brought	Eelco Dolstra	7	-56/+100
	back the query flag `--force-realise'. * Fixed some of the tests.
2005-01-20	* Terminology fixes.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-22/+22

2005-01-20	* Ensure that derivation names and sources don't end in `.drv'.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-16/+8

2005-01-20	* Another change to low-level derivations. The last one this year, I	Eelco Dolstra	7	-32/+70
	promise :-) This allows derivations to specify on what output paths of input derivations they are dependent. This helps to prevent unnecessary downloads. For instance, a build might be dependent on the `devel' and `lib' outputs of some library component, but not the `docs' output.
2005-01-19	* Set the Perl search path properly (reported by Roy van den Broek).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2005-01-19	* Nix-store queries `--references' and `referers' to query the pointer	Eelco Dolstra	3	-18/+33
	graph. That is, `nix-store --query --references PATH' shows the set of paths referenced by PATH, and `nix-store --query --referers PATH' shows the set of paths referencing PATH.
2005-01-19	* Renamed `normalise.cc' -> `build.cc', `storeexprs.cc' ->	Eelco Dolstra	19	-98/+128
	`derivations.cc', etc. * Store the SHA-256 content hash of store paths in the database after they have been built/added. This is so that we can check whether the store has been messed with (a la `rpm --verify'). * When registering path validity, verify that the closure property holds.
2005-01-19	* `nix-store --build' now builds its arguments in parallel instead of	Eelco Dolstra	4	-24/+37
	sequentially (within the limits set by `--jobs'). This should greatly improve the utilisation of the build farm when doing Nixpkgs builds.
2005-01-19	* Change extension `.store' to `.drv'.	Eelco Dolstra	12	-139/+120
	* Re-enable `nix-store --query --requisites'.
2005-01-19	* Started removing closure store expressions, i.e., the explicit	Eelco Dolstra	15	-891/+408
	representation of closures as ATerms in the Nix store. Instead, the file system pointer graph is now stored in the Nix database. This has many advantages: - It greatly simplifies the implementation (we can drop the notion of `successors', and so on). - It makes registering roots for the garbage collector much easier. Instead of specifying the closure expression as a root, you can simply specify the store path that must be retained as a root. This could not be done previously, since there was no way to find the closure store expression containing a given store path. - Better traceability: it is now possible to query what paths are referenced by a path, and what paths refer to a path.
2005-01-19	* Support arities > 6.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+7

2005-01-18	* Get --readonly-mode to work again.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+11

2005-01-17	* Actually check that the result of fixed-output derivations matches	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+25
	the specified hash.
2005-01-17	* Removed the `id' attribute hack.	Eelco Dolstra	17	-101/+292
	* Formalise the notion of fixed-output derivations, i.e., derivations for which a cryptographic hash of the output is known in advance. Changes to such derivations should not propagate upwards through the dependency graph. Previously this was done by specifying the hash component of the output path th
