2012-07-26	Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests	Eelco Dolstra	1	-104/+114

2012-07-23	Handle platforms that don't support linking to a symlink	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+7
	E.g. Darwin doesn't allow this.
2012-07-23	Unlink the right file	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2012-07-23	Automatically optimise the Nix store when a new path is added	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+13
	Auto-optimisation is enabled by default. It can be turned off by setting auto-optimise-store to false in nix.conf.
2012-07-23	optimiseStore(): Use a content-addressed file store in /nix/store/.links	Eelco Dolstra	1	-106/+107
	optimiseStore() now creates persistent, content-addressed hard links in /nix/store/.links. For instance, if it encounters a file P with hash H, it will create a hard link P' = /nix/store/.link/<H> to P if P' doesn't already exist; if P' exist, then P is replaced by a hard link to P'. This is better than the previous in-memory map, because it had the tendency to unnecessarily replace hard links with a hard link to whatever happened to be the first file with a given hash it encountered. It also allows on-the-fly, incremental optimisation.
2012-07-11	Rename queryValidPaths() to queryAllValidPaths()	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2012-02-15	On Linux, make the Nix store really read-only by using the immutable bit	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+24
	I was bitten one time too many by Python modifying the Nix store by creating *.pyc files when run as root. On Linux, we can prevent this by setting the immutable bit on files and directories (as in ‘chattr +i’). This isn't supported by all filesystems, so it's not an error if setting the bit fails. The immutable bit is cleared by the garbage collector before deleting a path. The only tricky aspect is in optimiseStore(), since it's forbidden to create hard links to an immutable file. Thus optimiseStore() temporarily clears the immutable bit before creating the link.
2010-11-16	* Store the size of a store path in the database (to be precise, the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	size of the NAR serialisation of the path, i.e., `nix-store --dump PATH'). This is useful for Hydra.
2010-06-04	* Applied a patch from David Brown to prevent `nix-store --optimise'	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+15
	from failing on rename() on BtrFS.
2009-09-24	* And some more.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2009-04-21	* Use foreach in a lot of places.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2008-06-18	* `nix-store --optimise': handle files with >= 32000 hard links.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+31
	(There can easily be more than 32000 occurrences of the empty file.)
2008-06-18	* Some refactoring: put the GC options / results in separate structs.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	* The garbage collector now also prints the number of blocks freed.
2008-06-09	* Merged the no-bdb branch (-r10900:HEAD	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+129
	https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/nix/branches/no-bdb).
