2004-01-13 | * Option `-B' to always show the output of builders, regardless of | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -1/+9 | |
verbosity level. | |||||
2004-01-13 | * Periodically checkpoint the log. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+3 | |
2004-01-13 | * Tricky: make sure that the accessor count is not reset to 0 if | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+5 | |
recovery fails. | |||||
2004-01-13 | * Print error messages, not debug messages. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+9 | |
2004-01-12 | * Changed the extension for store expressions from ".nix" to ".store" | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
(following the Usenix paper). | |||||
2004-01-09 | * Option `--force-realise' in `nix-store --query'. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+12 | |
2004-01-07 | * Upgraded to Berkeley DB 4.2.52. The main advantage of 4.2 is that | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
it automatically removes log files when they are no longer needed. *** IMPORTANT *** If you have an existing Nix installation, you must checkpoint the Nix database to prevent recent transactions from being undone. Do the following: - optional: make a backup of $prefix/var/nix/db. - run `db_checkpoint' from Berkeley DB 4.1: $ db_checkpoint -h $prefix/var/nix/db -1 - optional (?): run `db_recover' from Berkeley DB 4.1: $ db_recover -h $prefix/var/nix/db - remove $prefix/var/nix/db/log* and $prefix/var/nix/db/__db* | |||||
2004-01-05 | * Implemented Eelco V.'s `nix-env -I' command to specify the default | Eelco Dolstra | 7 | -42/+86 | |
path of the Nix expression to be used with the import, upgrade, and query commands. For instance, $ nix-env -I ~/nixpkgs/pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix $ nix-env --query --available [aka -qa] sylpheed-0.9.7 bison-1.875 pango-1.2.5 subversion-0.35.1 ... $ nix-env -i sylpheed $ nix-env -u subversion There can be only one default at a time. * If the path to a Nix expression is a symlink, follow the symlink prior to resolving relative path references in the expression. | |||||
2004-01-05 | * Implemented Eelco V.'s `-p' command to switch profiles. It switches | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+24 | |
the symlink ~/.nix-userenv to the given argument (which defaults to .../links/current). /etc/profile.d/nix-profile creates this symlink if it doesn't exist yet. Example use: $ nix-env -l my_profile -i foo.nix subversion quake $ nix-env -p my_profile I don't like the term "profile". Let's deprecate it :-) | |||||
2003-12-30 | * RPM spec file. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -8/+8 | |
* Respect DESTDIR variable. | |||||
2003-12-23 | * Fixed a bug in the upgrade operation. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -11/+13 | |
2003-12-22 | * GCC 2.95 compatibility. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -3/+13 | |
2003-12-22 | * Upgrade operation in `nix-env'. For instance, you can say | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -24/+165 | |
nix-env -u foo.nix strategoxt to replace the installed `strategoxt' derivation with the one from `foo.nix', if the latter has a higher version number. This is a no-op if `strategoxt' is not installed. Wildcards are also accepted, so nix-env -u foo.nix '*' will replace any installed derivation with newer versions from `foo.nix', if available. The notion of "version number" is somewhat ad hoc, but should be useful in most cases, as evidenced by the following unit tests for the version comparator: TEST("1.0", "2.3", -1); TEST("2.1", "2.3", -1); TEST("2.3", "2.3", 0); TEST("2.5", "2.3", 1); TEST("3.1", "2.3", 1); TEST("2.3.1", "2.3", 1); TEST("2.3.1", "2.3a", 1); TEST("2.3pre1", "2.3", -1); TEST("2.3pre3", "2.3pre12", -1); TEST("2.3a", "2.3c", -1); TEST("2.3pre1", "2.3c", -1); TEST("2.3pre1", "2.3q", -1); (-1 = less, 0 = equal, 1 = greater) * A new verbosity level `lvlInfo', between `lvlError' and `lvlTalkative'. This is the default for `nix-env', so without any `-v' flags users should get useful output, e.g., $ nix-env -u foo.nix strategoxt upgrading `strategoxt-0.9.2' to `strategoxt-0.9.3' | |||||
2003-12-21 | * Version numbers can be omitted in install/uninstall. E.g., | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -34/+106 | |
nix-env -i foo.nix subversion The version number part of a derivation name is defined as everything following the first dash not followed by a letter. | |||||
2003-12-21 | * `-u' -> `-e'. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -39/+58 | |
* `--link' / `-l' flag to specify the switch symlink to use (by default, /nix/var/nix/links/current). | |||||
2003-12-21 | * Bug fix: parallel builds of the same derivation failed due to lock file ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+5 | |
removal. | |||||
2003-12-05 | * Allow successors that don't exist but have a substitute. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -34/+73 | |
* Integrity: check in successor / substitute registration whether the target path exists or has a substitute. | |||||
2003-12-02 | * Add missing files to `make dist'. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -3/+3 | |
2003-12-02 | * Regression fix: query flags (e.g., "-qsf") were broken. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+2 | |
2003-12-01 | * Help text for all (non-script) programs, so no more: | Eelco Dolstra | 13 | -31/+125 | |
$ nix-instantiate --help error: unknown flag `--help` Try `nix-instantiate --help' for more information. :-) | |||||
2003-12-01 | * Fix `make check'. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2003-12-01 | * Use a system name that does not include the OS manufacturer (i.e., | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+2 | |
"i686-linux" instead of "i686-suse-linux"). | |||||
2003-11-25 | * Another fix. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2003-11-25 | * More `make dist' fixes. | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -18/+14 | |
2003-11-25 | * `make dist' fix. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -8/+1 | |
2003-11-25 | * Allow integer bindings in derivations. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -1/+25 | |
2003-11-24 | * Allow the top-level expression to be a derivation. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -13/+18 | |
* Hack: `nix-env -i *' installs all available derivations. | |||||
2003-11-24 | * Bug fix in path invalidation. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -23/+41 | |
* More consistency checks. | |||||

2003-11-22 | * Fix nix-push. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2003-11-22 | * Maintain integrity of the substitute and successor mappings when | Eelco Dolstra | 7 | -78/+114 | |
deleting a path in the store. * Allow absolute paths in Nix expressions. * Get nix-prefetch-url to work again. * Various other fixes. | |||||

2003-11-21 | * Uninstallation. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -8/+19 | |
2003-11-20 | * Uninstall command (doesn't work yet). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -36/+81 | |
2003-11-19 | * Installation: add the previously installed packages. Switch to the new | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -20/+112 | |
configuration. * Status queries. | |||||
2003-11-19 | * nix-env: a tool to manage user environments. | Eelco Dolstra | 13 | -51/+330 | |
* Replace all directory reading code by a generic readDirectory() function. | |||||
2003-11-19 | * Refactoring (step 2). | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -10/+16 | |
2003-11-19 | * Refactoring: put the Nix expression evaluator in its own library so | Eelco Dolstra | 14 | -1/+2 | |
that it can be used by multiple programs. | |||||
2003-11-19 | * Use `sdftable -s' to get warnings about the grammar. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -14/+20 | |
* Several bug fixes in the grammar. * Allow one-line comments (#... and //...) to end in EOF. | |||||
2003-11-18 | * "Fix expression" -> "Nix expression". | Eelco Dolstra | 14 | -32/+27 | |
* More refactoring. | |||||
2003-11-18 | * nix -> nix-store, fix -> nix-instantiate. | Eelco Dolstra | 20 | -9/+301 | |
2003-11-18 | * "Nix expression" -> "store expression". | Eelco Dolstra | 20 | -119/+121 | |
* More refactoring. | |||||
2003-11-18 | * libnix -> libstore. | Eelco Dolstra | 25 | -11/+11 | |
2003-11-18 | * Source tree refactoring. | Eelco Dolstra | 20 | -511/+30 | |
2003-11-16 | * An forward non-random access input iterator class for ATermLists. | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -88/+68 | |
2003-11-16 | * Some utility functions for working with ATerms. | Eelco Dolstra | 14 | -175/+363 | |
2003-11-10 | * Do not filter when parsing. This is much faster. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+7 | |
* Add some rejections and lexical restrictions to the grammar to make this work. | |||||
2003-11-09 | * Turned the msg() and debug() functions into macros, since they | Eelco Dolstra | 10 | -45/+60 | |
turned out to be a huge performance bottleneck (the text to printed would always be evaluated, even when it was above the verbosity level). This reduces fix-ng execution time by over 50%. gprof(1) is very useful. :-) | |||||
2003-11-06 | * Allow null in derivation bindings. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+2 | |
