2003-07-14	* After building, scan for actual file system references as	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+32
	opposed to declared references. This prunes the reference graph, thus allowing better garbage collection and more efficient derivate distribution.
2003-07-10	* A command to register successor fstate expressions.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+7
	Unifying substitutes and successors isn't very feasible for now, since substitutes are only used when no path with a certain is known. Therefore, a normal form of some expression stored as a substitute would not be used unless the expression itself was missing.
2003-07-10	* The policy-free derivate sharing now almost works. :-) For any	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+6
	hash for which no local expansion is available, Nix can execute a `substitute' which should produce a path with such a hash. This is policy-free since Nix does not in any way specify how the substitute should work, i.e., it's an arbitrary (unnormalised) fstate expression. For example, `nix-pull' registers substitutes that fetch Nix archives from the network (through `wget') and unpack them, but any other method is possible as well. This is an improvement over the old Nix sharing scheme, which had a policy (fetching through `wget') built in. The sharing scheme doesn't work completely yet because successors from fstate rewriting have to be registered on the receiving side. Probably the whole successor stuff can be folded up into the substitute mechanism; this would be a nice simplification.
2003-07-10	* Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create Nix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-21/+1
	archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar). * queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying the target path (which may be empty). * Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix. TODO: bootstrap Nix and install Nix as a Fix package.
2003-07-09	* Outline of the new scheme for derivate distribution.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5

2003-07-09	* When computing the set of paths referenced by an expression, also	Eelco Dolstra	1	-36/+51
	include the paths of the subterms.
2003-07-08	* Canonicalise paths so that Fix produces identical Nix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	expressions for identical inputs.
2003-07-08	* The output of a Derive() node is not a referenced path.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+0

2003-07-08	* A command to query the paths referenced by an fstate expression.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-52/+96
	* Use a temporary directory for build actions.
2003-07-07	* Make dbRefs a mapping from Hash to [Path].	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+4

2003-07-07	* Refactoring on the file names.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+340
