2008-06-18 * --max-freed: support values >= 4 GB.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2008-06-18 * Garbage collector: option `--max-freed' to stop after at least NEelco Dolstra1-0/+3
bytes have been freed, `--max-links' to stop when the Nix store directory has fewer than N hard links (the latter being important for very large Nix stores on filesystems with a 32000 subdirectories limit).
2008-06-14 * nix-worker: clean up the temporary root for the worker processes Eelco Dolstra1-0/+5
in /nix/var/nix/temproots.
2007-01-14 * Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75)Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-12-04 * Daemon mode (`nix-worker --daemon'). Clients connect to the serverEelco Dolstra1-0/+6
via the Unix domain socket in /nix/var/nix/daemon.socket. The server forks a worker process per connection. * readString(): use the heap, not the stack. * Some protocol fixes.
2006-12-03 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-12-03 * Removed `build-allow-root'.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
* Added `build-users-group', the group under which builds are to be performed. * Check that /nix/store has 1775 permission and is owner by the build-users-group.
2006-09-04 * Use a proper namespace.Eelco Dolstra1-6/+8
* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2005-02-01 * nix-store, nix-instantiate: added an option `--add-root' toEelco Dolstra1-0/+4
immediately add the result as a permanent GC root. This is the only way to prevent a race with the garbage collector. For instance, the old style ln -s $(nix-store -r $(nix-instantiate foo.nix)) \ /nix/var/nix/gcroots/result has two time windows in which the garbage collector can interfere (by GC'ing the derivation and the output, respectively). On the other hand, nix-store --add-root /nix/var/nix/gcroots/result -r \ $(nix-instantiate --add-root /nix/var/nix/gcroots/drv \ foo.nix) is safe. * nix-build: use `--add-root' to prevent GC races.
2003-12-01 * Help text for all (non-script) programs, so no more:Eelco Dolstra1-0/+9
$ nix-instantiate --help error: unknown flag `--help` Try `nix-instantiate --help' for more information. :-)
2003-10-20 * Refactored the source tree.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+15
