2013-11-25	Rename Makefile.new -> Makefile	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+0

2013-11-23	Use libnix as a prefix for all Nix libraries	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	In particular "libutil" was always a problem because it collides with Glibc's libutil. Even if we install into $(libdir)/nix, the linker sometimes got confused (e.g. if a program links against libstore but not libutil, then ld would report undefined symbols in libstore because it was looking at Glibc's libutil).
2013-11-24	Disallow undefined symbols in dynamic libraries by default	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	This encourages that each library declares its own dependencies properly.
2013-11-23	Drop the dependency on libgc in libmain	Eelco Dolstra	2	-22/+0
	Instead, libexpr now depends on libgc. This means commands like nix-store that don't do any evaluation no longer require libgc.
2013-11-23	Allow (dynamic) libraries to depend on other libraries	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2013-11-22	Support building dynamic libraries	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2013-11-22	Fix building without Boehm GC	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2013-11-22	Rename $(here) to $(d) for brevity, and remove trailing slash	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2013-11-22	New non-recursive, plain Make-based build system	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7

2013-11-12	Make function calls show up in stack traces again	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+3
	Note that adding --show-trace prevents functions calls from being tail-recursive, so an expression that evaluates without --show-trace may fail with a stack overflow if --show-trace is given.
2013-10-02	Report OOM errors better	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2013-08-07	Respect MINSIGSTKSZ when allocating an alternative stack	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5663577
2013-07-30	Detect stack overflows	Eelco Dolstra	3	-1/+80
	Previously, if the Nix evaluator gets a stack overflow due to a deep or infinite recursion in the Nix expression, the user gets an unhelpful message ("Segmentation fault") that doesn't indicate that the problem is in the user's code rather than Nix itself. Now it prints: error: stack overflow (possible infinite recursion) This only works on x86_64-linux and i686-linux. Fixes #35.
2013-03-08	Revert "Prevent config.h from being clobbered"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+2
	This reverts commit 28bba8c44f484eae38e8a15dcec73cfa999156f6.
2013-03-07	Prevent config.h from being clobbered	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+5

2013-02-19	build-remote: Use the --quiet flag	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+2
	‘--option verbosity 0’ doesn't actually do anything.
2012-12-11	On SQLITE_BUSY, wait a random amount of time	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+6
	If all contending processes wait a fixed amount of time (100 ms), there is a good probability that they'll just collide again.
2012-11-27	Add builtin constants ‘langVersion’ and ‘nixVersion’	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+1
	The integer constant ‘langVersion’ denotes the current language version. It gets increased every time a language feature is added/changed/removed. It's currently 1. The string constant ‘nixVersion’ contains the current Nix version, e.g. "1.2pre2980_9de6bc5".
2012-11-20	nix-store -r: Add ‘--ignore-unknown’ flag	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+11
	This flag causes paths that do not have a known substitute to be quietly ignored. This is mostly useful for Charon, allowing it to speed up deployment by letting a machine use substitutes for all substitutable paths, instead of uploading them. The latter is frequently faster, e.g. if the target machine has a fast Internet connection while the source machine is on a slow ADSL line.
2012-10-03	Drop support for running nix-worker in "slave" mode	Eelco Dolstra	2	-60/+1
	AFAIK nobody uses this, setuid binaries are evil, and there is no good reason why people can't just run the daemon.
2012-10-03	When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual page	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+12
	I.e. do what git does. I'm too lazy to keep the builtin help text up to date :-) Also add ‘--help’ to various commands that lacked it (e.g. nix-collect-garbage).
2012-08-27	Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests	Eelco Dolstra	2	-11/+0

2012-08-24	Include the output name in the GC root link	Eelco Dolstra	2	-11/+0
	Output names are now appended to resulting GC symlinks, e.g. by nix-build. For backwards compatibility, if the output is named "out", nothing is appended. E.g. doing "nix-build -A foo" on a derivation that produces outputs "out", "bin" and "dev" will produce symlinks "./result", "./result-bin" and "./result-dev", respectively.
2012-07-31	Add an option ‘build-fallback’ (equivalent to the --fallback flag)	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2012-07-30	Refactor settings processing	Eelco Dolstra	1	-19/+28
	Put all Nix configuration flags in a Settings object.
2012-07-30	Whitespace	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+7

2012-07-18	Use "#pragma once" to prevent repeated header file inclusion	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+1

2012-03-13	Ensure that Perl processes delete their entry in the temproots directory	Eelco Dolstra	2	-15/+0
	By moving the destructor object to libstore.so, it's also run when download-using-manifests and nix-prefetch-url exit. This prevents them from cluttering /nix/var/nix/temproots with stale files.
2012-03-05	nix-worker: put the pid of the caller in argv[1]	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+5
	This is useful for debugging.
2011-12-14	* Remove the terminate handler, which was only really needed because	Eelco Dolstra	1	-23/+0
	of Berkeley DB (see r8632).
2011-11-29	* Get rid of some superfluous error messages if a substituter fails.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	* Say "fetch" instead of "substitute".
2011-11-22	* Move initialisation of variables like nixConfDir from libmain to	Eelco Dolstra	2	-31/+2
	libstore so that the Perl bindings can use it as well. It's vital that the Perl bindings use the configuration file, because otherwise nix-copy-closure will fail with a ‘database locked’ message if the value of ‘use-sqlite-wal’ is changed from the default.
2011-09-06	* Added a command ‘nix-store --verify-paths PATHS’ to check whether	Eelco Dolstra	2	-6/+9
	the contents of any of the given store paths have been modified. E.g. $ nix-store --verify-path $(nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system) path `/nix/store/m2smyiwbxidlprfxfz4rjlvz2c3mg58y-etc' was modified! expected hash `fc87e271c5fdf179b47939b08ad13440493805584b35e3014109d04d8436e7b8', got `20f1a47281b3c0cbe299ce47ad5ca7340b20ab34246426915fce0ee9116483aa' All paths are checked; the exit code is 1 if any path has been modified, 0 otherwise.
2011-08-31	* Eliminate all uses of the global variable ‘store’ from libstore.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+5
	This should also fix: nix-instantiate: ./../boost/shared_ptr.hpp:254: T* boost::shared_ptr<T>::operator->() const [with T = nix::StoreAPI]: Assertion `px != 0' failed. which was caused by hashDerivationModulo() calling the ‘store’ object (during store upgrades) before openStore() assigned it.
2011-06-30	Add support for the `build-timeout' and `--timeout' options.	Ludovic Courtès	1	-0/+3

2011-02-09	* Don't call GC_expand_hp unless we're actually using the garbage	Eelco Dolstra	1	-12/+0
	collector.
2011-02-09	Use $BDW_GC_LIBS instead of a custom variable.	Ludovic Courtès	1	-1/+1

2011-02-05	* Clang compatibility fix. Clang actually checks template definitions	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	when they are defined
2010-12-13	* nix-instantiate: return exit status 100 to denote a permanent build	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	failure. The build hook can use this to distinguish between transient and permanent failures on the remote side.
2010-11-17	* Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store paths	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+7
	will approximately require.
2010-11-16	* Sync with the trunk.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+33

2010-10-29	* Document Boehm GC support.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2010-10-29	* Set libgc's initial heap size to 384 MiB to prevent garbage	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+12
	collection in most cases (and therefore its performance overhead).
2010-10-28	* Handle out of memory condition.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+21

2010-08-30	* When using the build hook, distinguish between the stderr of the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+6
	hook script proper, and the stdout/stderr of the builder. Only the latter should be saved in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs. * Allow the verbosity to be set through an option. * Added a flag --quiet to lower the verbosity level.
2010-08-04	* Remove "auto" and "guess" as synonyms for 0 in the handling of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-14/+3
	build-cores and --cores. They're superfluous and just complicate the parsing.
2010-06-23	Added support for passing an (impure) NIX_BUILD_CORES variable to build ↵	Peter Simons	1	-0/+14
	expressions. This patch adds the configuration file variable "build-cores" and the command line argument "--cores". These settings specify the number of CPU cores to utilize for parallel building within a job, i.e. by passing an appropriate "-j" flag to GNU Make. The default value is 1, which means that parallel building is disabled. If the number of build cores is specified as 0 (synonymously: "guess" or "auto"), then the actual value is supposed to be auto-detected by builders at run-time, i.e by calling the nproc(1) utility from coreutils. The environment variable $NIX_BUILD_CORES is available to builders, but the contents of that variable does not influence the hash that goes into the $out store path, i.e. the number of build cores to be utilized can be changed at will without requiring any re-builds.
2010-04-19	* Drop the dependency on the ATerm library.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+1

2010-04-19	* Don't use the ATerm library for parsing/printing .drv files.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+0

2010-04-12	* Finished the ATerm-less parser.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
