2014-02-18	Add a flag ‘--check’ to verify build determinism	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+3
	The flag ‘--check’ to ‘nix-store -r’ or ‘nix-build’ will cause Nix to redo the build of a derivation whose output paths are already valid. If the new output differs from the original output, an error is printed. This makes it easier to test if a build is deterministic. (Obviously this cannot catch all sources of non-determinism, but it catches the most common one, namely the current time.) For example: $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf ... $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf --check error: derivation `/nix/store/1ipvxsdnbhl1rw6siz6x92s7sc8nwkkb-patchelf-0.6' may not be deterministic: hash mismatch in output `/nix/store/4pc1dmw5xkwmc6q3gdc9i5nbjl4dkjpp-patchelf-0.6.drv' The --check build fails if not all outputs are valid. Thus the first call to nix-build is necessary to ensure that all outputs are valid. The current outputs are left untouched: the new outputs are either put in a chroot or diverted to a different location in the store using hash rewriting.

2013-10-24	Rename "attribute sets" to "sets"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+5
	We don't have any other kind of sets so calling them attribute sets is unnecessarily verbose.
2013-09-06	Remove stray debug line	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+0

2013-09-03	nix-env -i: Add a flag ‘--remove-all’ / ‘-r’	Eelco Dolstra	1	-17/+25
	This is equivalent to running ‘nix-env -e '*'’ first, except that it happens in a single transaction. Thus, ‘nix-env -i pkgs...’ replaces the profile with the specified set of packages. The main motivation is to support declarative package management (similar to environment.systemPackages in NixOS). That is, if you have a specification ‘profile.nix’ like this: with import <nixpkgs> {}; [ thunderbird geeqie ... ] then after any change to ‘profile.nix’, you can run: $ nix-env -f profile.nix -ir to update the profile to match the specification. (Without the ‘-r’ flag, if you remove a package from ‘profile.nix’, it won't be removed from the actual profile.) Suggested by @zefhemel.
2013-09-03	nix-env: Use wildcard match by default	Eelco Dolstra	1	-8/+4
	That is, you don't need to pass '' anymore, so nix-env -qa is equivalent to nix-env -qa ''
2013-09-03	nix-env: Load files in ~/.nix-defexpr on demand	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+6
	So if you do "nix-env -qa -A nixos", then other channels won't be parsed/evaluated at all.
2013-09-03	Check for name collisions in the input Nix expressions	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+9

2013-09-03	Work on Values instead of Exprs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-29/+38
	This prevents some duplicate evaluation in nix-env and nix-instantiate. Also, when traversing ~/.nix-defexpr, only read regular files with the extension .nix. Previously it was reading files like .../channels/binary-caches/<name>. The only reason this didn't cause problems is pure luck (namely, <name> shadows an actual Nix expression, the binary-caches files happen to be syntactically valid Nix expressions, and we iterate over the directory contents in just the right order).
2013-09-03	Get rid of the parse tree cache	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	Since we already cache files in normal form (fileEvalCache), caching parse trees is redundant. Note that getting rid of this cache doesn't actually save much memory at the moment, because parse trees are currently not freed / GC'ed.
2013-08-26	Fix typos, especially those that end up in the Nix manual	Ivan Kozik	1	-1/+1

2012-12-12	Allow setting the profile location using $NIX_PROFILE	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	Fixes #69.
2012-12-04	nix-env: Install all outputs of a derivation	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+25
	If you explicitly install a package, presumably you want all of it. So symlink all outputs in the user environment.
2012-12-03	Fix the ‘--prebuilt-only’ flag	Eelco Dolstra	1	-8/+11

2012-12-03	Whitespace	Eelco Dolstra	3	-60/+58

2012-11-28	nix-env -q --out-path: Support multiple outputs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-33/+46
	We now print all output paths of a package, e.g. openssl-1.0.0i bin=/nix/store/gq2mvh0wb9l90djvsagln3aqywqmr6vl-openssl-1.0.0i-bin;man=/nix/store/7zwf5r5hsdarl3n86dasvb4chm2xzw9n-openssl-1.0.0i-man;/nix/store/cj7xvk7fjp9q887359j75pw3pzjfmqf1-openssl-1.0.0i or (in XML mode) <item attrPath="openssl" name="openssl-1.0.0i" system="x86_64-linux"> <output name="bin" path="/nix/store/gq2mvh0wb9l90djvsagln3aqywqmr6vl-openssl-1.0.0i-bin" /> <output name="man" path="/nix/store/7zwf5r5hsdarl3n86dasvb4chm2xzw9n-openssl-1.0.0i-man" /> <output name="out" path="/nix/store/cj7xvk7fjp9q887359j75pw3pzjfmqf1-openssl-1.0.0i" /> </item>
2012-10-04	getDerivation(): Don't always quietly ignore assertion failure	Eelco Dolstra	2	-5/+5
	Ignoring assertion failures makes some sense for nix-env -qa, but not for nix-instantiate/nix-build or hydra-eval-jobs.
2012-10-03	When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual page	Eelco Dolstra	3	-85/+2
	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).
2012-10-03	nix-env: Support ‘--repair’ flag	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+5

2012-09-13	nix-env --delete-generations: Support --dry-run flag	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+10
	Fixes #43.
2012-08-01	nix-env: Ignore manifest.nix when recursing into ~/.nix-defexpr	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5
	Channels are implemented using a profile now, and profiles contain a manifest.nix file. This should be ignored to prevent bogus packages from showing up in nix-env.
2012-07-30	Refactor settings processing	Eelco Dolstra	1	-12/+8
	Put all Nix configuration flags in a Settings object.
2012-07-26	Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests	Eelco Dolstra	2	-13/+2

2012-07-18	Use "#pragma once" to prevent repeated header file inclusion	Eelco Dolstra	2	-13/+2

2012-07-11	Replace hasSubstitutes() with querySubstitutablePaths()	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+6
	querySubstitutablePaths() takes a set of paths, so this greatly reduces daemon <-> client latency.
2012-07-11	Add a function queryValidPaths()	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+6
	queryValidPaths() combines multiple calls to isValidPath() in one. This matters when using the Nix daemon because it reduces latency. For instance, on "nix-env -qas \*" it reduces execution time from 5.7s to 4.7s (which is indistinguishable from the non-daemon case).
2012-07-11	nix-env: Determine which paths have substitutes in parallel	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+18

2012-06-27	nix-store -r: do substitutions in parallel	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+3
	I.e. when multiple non-derivation arguments are passed to ‘nix-store -r’ to be substituted, do them in parallel.
2012-04-14	Remove unnecessary "system" argument	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2012-04-04	Include --keep-going in --help	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2012-01-03	* Refactoring: Get rid of a few subdirectories in corepkgs/, and some	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	other simplifications. * Use <nix/...> to locate the corepkgs. This allows them to be overriden through $NIX_PATH. * Use bash's pipefail option in the NAR builder so that we don't need to create a temporary file.
2011-12-01	* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-build	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-08-31	* Eliminate all uses of the global variable ‘store’ from libstore.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-5/+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.
2011-08-06	* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown.
2011-08-06	* Refactoring: move parseExprFromFile() and parseExprFromString() into	Eelco Dolstra	2	-7/+5
	the EvalState class.
