2004-02-14	* The environment variable NIX_ROOT can now be set to execute Nix in a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7
	chroot() environment. * A operation `--validpath' to register path validity. Useful for bootstrapping in a pure Nix environment. * Safety checks: ensure that files involved in store operations are in the store.
2004-02-02	* Sort `nix-env -q' output by derivation name.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	* `--version' flag for all commands. * Manual updates.
2004-01-15	* Remove debug message.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2004-01-15	* Catch SIGINT to terminate cleanly when the user tries to interrupt	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+15
	Nix. This is to prevent Berkeley DB from becoming wedged. Unfortunately it is not possible to throw C++ exceptions from a signal handler. In fact, you can't do much of anything except change variables of type `volatile sig_atomic_t'. So we set an interrupt flag in the signal handler and check it at various strategic locations in the code (by calling checkInterrupt()). Since this is unlikely to cover all cases (e.g., (semi-)infinite loops), sometimes SIGTERM may now be required to kill Nix.
2004-01-13	* Option `-B' to always show the output of builders, regardless of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	verbosity level.
2003-12-22	* GCC 2.95 compatibility.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2003-12-01	* Help text for all (non-script) programs, so no more:	Eelco Dolstra	1	-14/+25
	$ nix-instantiate --help error: unknown flag `--help` Try `nix-instantiate --help' for more information. :-)
2003-11-19	* nix-env: a tool to manage user environments.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	* Replace all directory reading code by a generic readDirectory() function.
2003-11-09	* Turned the msg() and debug() functions into macros, since they	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+3
	turned out to be a huge performance bottleneck (the text to printed would always be evaluated, even when it was above the verbosity level). This reduces fix-ng execution time by over 50%. gprof(1) is very useful. :-)
2003-11-03	* Ignore options passed to the aterm library.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+5

2003-10-20	* Refactored the source tree.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+79
