2017-09-05	Add automatic garbage collection	Eelco Dolstra	5	-1/+123
	Nix can now automatically run the garbage collector during builds or while adding paths to the store. The option "min-free = <bytes>" specifies that Nix should run the garbage collector whenever free space in the Nix store drops below <bytes>. It will then delete garbage until "max-free" bytes are available. Garbage collection during builds is asynchronous; running builds are not paused and new builds are not blocked. However, there also is a synchronous GC run prior to the first build/substitution. Currently, no old GC roots are deleted (as in "nix-collect-garbage -d").
2017-09-05	GC: Don't delete own temproots file	Eelco Dolstra	3	-34/+34
	Since file locks are per-process rather than per-file-descriptor, the garbage collector would always acquire a lock on its own temproots file and conclude that it's stale.
2017-09-01	Abort curl downloads if there is no progress for 5 minutes	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+6
	Maybe this will fix the curl hangs on macOS. (We could also use CURLOPT_TIMEOUT but that seems more of a sledgehammer.)
2017-09-01	Fix verbosity level for nix build --dry-run	Eelco Dolstra	4	-16/+16

2017-08-31	src/libmain/stack.cc: fix 'ucontext' usage on glibc-2.26	Sergei Trofimovich	1	-2/+2
	Build fails as: $ make CXX src/libmain/stack.o src/libmain/stack.cc: In function 'void nix::sigsegvHandler(int, siginfo_t, void)': src/libmain/stack.cc:21:21: error: 'ucontext' was not declared in this scope sp = (char ) ((ucontext ) ctx)->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_RSP]; ^~~~~~~~ src/libmain/stack.cc:21:21: note: suggested alternative: 'ucontext_t' sp = (char ) ((ucontext ) ctx)->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_RSP]; ^~~~~~~~ ucontext_t It's caused by upstream rename: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=251287734e89a52da3db682a8241eb6bccc050c9 which basically changes typedef struct ucontext {} ucontext_t; to typedef struct ucontext_t {} ucontext_t; The change uses ucontext_t.

2017-08-31	Call queryMissing() prior to building	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+14
	Without this, substitute info is fetched sequentially, which is superslow. In the old UI (e.g. nix-build), we call printMissing(), which calls queryMissing(), thereby preheating the binary cache cache. But the new UI doesn't do that.
2017-08-31	Add an activity for binary cache queries	Eelco Dolstra	4	-4/+19

2017-08-31	Rename a few configuration options	Eelco Dolstra	4	-48/+60
	In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are pointless. So now you can say nix build --no-sandbox instead of nix build --no-build-use-sandbox
2017-08-31	More macOS build fixes	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3

2017-08-29	nix edit / log: Operate on a single Installable	Eelco Dolstra	6	-89/+100

2017-08-29	nix search: Warn about cached results	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2017-08-29	nix run: Flush the progress bar before starting the command	Eelco Dolstra	5	-19/+28

2017-08-29	nix run: Add some flags for clearing/keeping the environment	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+49
	This is useful for testing commands in isolation. For example, $ nix run nixpkgs.geeqie -i -k DISPLAY -k XAUTHORITY -c geeqie runs geeqie in an empty environment, except for $DISPLAY and $XAUTHORITY.
2017-08-29	nix run: Allow passing a command to execute	Eelco Dolstra	3	-3/+19
	E.g. nix run nixpkgs.hello -c hello --greeting Hallo Note that unlike "nix-shell --command", no quoting of arguments is necessary. "-c" (short for "--command") cannot be combined with "--" because they both consume all remaining arguments. But since installables shouldn't start with a dash, this is unlikely to cause problems.
2017-08-29	nix run: Fix chroot execution	Eelco Dolstra	2	-60/+110
	Running "nix run" with a diverted store, e.g. $ nix run --store local?root=/tmp/nix nixpkgs.hello stopped working when Nix became multithreaded, because unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) doesn't work in multithreaded processes. The obvious solution is to terminate all other threads first, but 1) there is no way to terminate Boehm GC marker threads; and 2) it appears that the kernel has a race where unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) will still fail for some indeterminate amount of time after joining other threads. So instead, "nix run" will now exec() a single-threaded helper ("nix __run_in_chroot") that performs the actual unshare()/chroot()/exec().
2017-08-29	Hide commands that don't have a description	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+5
	These are assumed to be internal.
2017-08-29	readLink(): Handle symlinks in /proc	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+5
	Symlinks like /proc/self/exe report a stat() size of 0, so use a buffer of at least PATH_MAX instead.
2017-08-28	Give activities a verbosity level again	Eelco Dolstra	10	-19/+41
	And print them (separately from the progress bar) given sufficient -v flags.
2017-08-28	Don't send progress messages to older clients	Eelco Dolstra	2	-12/+19

2017-08-28	Tunnel progress messages from the daemon to the client	Eelco Dolstra	4	-30/+124
	This makes the progress bar work for non-root users.
2017-08-28	Simplify	Eelco Dolstra	2	-18/+14

2017-08-28	Make TunnelLogger thread-safe	Eelco Dolstra	1	-109/+129
	Now that we use threads in lots of places, it's possible for TunnelLogger::log() to be called asynchronously from other threads than the main loop. So we need to ensure that STDERR_NEXT messages don't clobber other messages.
2017-08-25	Simplify	Eelco Dolstra	3	-29/+56

2017-08-25	Doh	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2017-08-25	Allow derivations to update the build phase	Eelco Dolstra	3	-7/+24
	So the progress bar can show [1/0/1 built, 0.0 MiB DL] building hello-2.10 (configuring): checking whether pread is declared without a macro... yes
2017-08-25	Allow activities to be nested	Eelco Dolstra	7	-12/+55
	In particular, this allows more relevant activities ("substituting X") to supersede inferior ones ("downloading X").
2017-08-25	Fix Debian build	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3
	https://hydra.nixos.org/build/59390148
2017-08-25	Handle SIGWINCH	Eelco Dolstra	3	-8/+39

2017-08-25	When truncating the progress bar, take ANSI escape sequences into account	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+41

2017-08-25	Typo	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2017-08-25	Restore activity metadata	Eelco Dolstra	4	-20/+36
	This allows the progress bar to display "building perl-5.22.3" instead of "building /nix/store/<hash>-perl-5.22.3.drv".
2017-08-21	Clean up JSON construction	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+18

2017-08-21	Allow builders to create activities	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+72
	Actually, currently they can only create download activities. Thus, downloads by builtins.fetchurl show up in the progress bar.
2017-08-21	Remove debug line	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+0

2017-08-21	Disallow accidental copy construction	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2017-08-18	Remove unused decodeOctalEscaped	Andy Wingo	2	-21/+0
	Besides being unused, this function has a bug that it will incorrectly decode the path component Ubuntu\04016.04.2\040LTS\040amd64 as "Ubuntu.04.2 LTS amd64" instead of "Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS amd64".

2017-08-16	nix optimise-store: Add	Eelco Dolstra	4	-6/+60
	This replaces "nix-store --optimise". Main difference is that it has a progress indicator.

2017-08-16	Progress indicator: Show number of active items	Eelco Dolstra	7	-28/+39

2017-08-16	Progress indicator: Unify "copying" and "substituting"	Eelco Dolstra	4	-87/+24
	They're the same thing after all. Example: $ nix build --store local?root=/tmp/nix nixpkgs.firefox-unwrapped [0/1 built, 49/98 copied, 16.3/92.8 MiB DL, 55.8/309.2 MiB copied] downloading 'https://cache.nixos.org/nar/0pl9li1jigcj2dany47hpmn0r3r48wc4nz48v5mqhh426lgz3bz6.nar.xz'
2017-08-16	Improve substitution progress indicator	Eelco Dolstra	5	-86/+93
	E.g. $ nix build --store local?root=/tmp/nix nixpkgs.firefox-unwrapped [0/1 built, 1/97/98 fetched, 65.8/92.8 MiB DL, 203.2/309.2 MiB copied] downloading 'https://cache.nixos.org/nar/1czm9fk0svacy4h6a3fzkpafi4f7a9gml36kk8cq1igaghbspg3k.nar.xz'
2017-08-16	nix copy: Improve progress indicator	Eelco Dolstra	4	-38/+111
	It now shows the amount of data copied: [8/1038 copied, 160.4/1590.9 MiB copied] copying path '...'
2017-08-16	nix copy: Revive progress bar	Eelco Dolstra	6	-2/+99
