2009-05-04 Add an ftruncate call paired with fallocate to play safe with some FSes ↵Michael Raskin1-0/+1
(namely, BtrFS fallocate sets file size to allocated size, i.e. multiple of block size)
2009-03-22 * NAR archives: handle files larger than 2^32 bytes. Previously itEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
would just silently store only (fileSize % 2^32) bytes. * Use posix_fallocate if available when unpacking archives. * Provide a better error message when trying to unpack something that isn't a NAR archive.
2008-12-03 * A simple API for parsing NAR archives.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+13
2006-12-12 * New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter filesEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
from a source directory. All files for which a predicate function returns true are copied to the store. Typical example is to leave out the .svn directory: stdenv.mkDerivation { ... src = builtins.filterSource (path: baseNameOf (toString path) != ".svn") ./source-dir; # as opposed to # src = ./source-dir; } This is important because the .svn directory influences the hash in a rather unpredictable and variable way.
2006-12-12 * In dumpPath(): pass a function object that allows files to beEelco Dolstra1-1/+10
selectively in/excluded from the dump.
2006-11-30 * Skeleton of the privileged worker program.Eelco Dolstra1-20/+3
* Some refactoring: put the NAR archive integer/string serialisation code in a separate file so it can be reused by the worker protocol implementation.
2006-09-04 * Use a proper namespace.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+12
* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2005-03-03 * Don't use fork() in copyPath(), but a string buffer.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
2003-11-18 * Source tree refactoring.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+60
