2005-01-19	* Started removing closure store expressions, i.e., the explicit	Eelco Dolstra	1	-11/+7
	representation of closures as ATerms in the Nix store. Instead, the file system pointer graph is now stored in the Nix database. This has many advantages: - It greatly simplifies the implementation (we can drop the notion of `successors', and so on). - It makes registering roots for the garbage collector much easier. Instead of specifying the closure expression as a root, you can simply specify the store path that must be retained as a root. This could not be done previously, since there was no way to find the closure store expression containing a given store path. - Better traceability: it is now possible to query what paths are referenced by a path, and what paths refer to a path.
2004-09-10	* Operation `--delete-generations' to delete generations of a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+33
	profile. Arguments are either generation number, or `old' to delete all non-current generations. Typical use: $ nix-env --delete-generations old $ nix-collect-garbage * istringstream -> string2Int.
2004-07-01	* Include some missing headers.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2004-02-11	* When creating a new generation, also make the normal form of the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+7
	derivation (i.e., the closure store expression) a root of the garbage collector. This ensures that running `nix-collect-garbage --no-successors' is safe.
2004-02-06	* In `--list-generations', show what the current generation is.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+24

2004-02-06	* A command `--list-generations' to show all generations for a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+37
	profile.
2004-02-06	* More refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+57
