2013-01-02	Urgggh	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3661100
2012-08-01	Use a GNU tar flag to shut up warnings about implausibly old timestamp	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2012-06-29	Use XZ compression in binary caches	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	XZ compresses significantly better than bzip2. Here are the compression ratios and execution times (using 4 cores in parallel) on my /var/run/current-system (3.1 GiB): bzip2: total compressed size 849.56 MiB, 30.8% [2m08] xz -6: total compressed size 641.84 MiB, 23.4% [6m53] xz -7: total compressed size 621.82 MiB, 22.6% [7m19] xz -8: total compressed size 599.33 MiB, 21.8% [7m18] xz -9: total compressed size 588.18 MiB, 21.4% [7m40] Note that compression takes much longer. More importantly, however, decompression is much faster: bzip2: 1m47.274s xz -6: 0m55.446s xz -7: 0m54.119s xz -8: 0m52.388s xz -9: 0m51.842s The only downside to using -9 is that decompression takes a fair amount (~65 MB) of memory.
2012-05-10	Support building with the Perl XS bindings disabled	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	Since the Perl bindings require shared libraries, this is required on platforms such as Cygwin where we do a static build.
2012-04-13	If "pv" is available at compile time, hard-code its path	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2012-03-19	Replace "make check" with "make installcheck"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	Ensuring that the tests work from the build tree requires a growing number of nasty hacks. The tests also don't verify that the installed Nix actually works. Thus, the tests now require "make install" to have been run.
2012-03-18	Drop the externals directory	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+1
	Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed. SQLite is detected using pkg-config. We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so depending on SQLite is not a big problem. The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone.
2012-01-11	tests: Run `download-using-manifests' via libtool so that dlopening works.	Ludovic Courtès	1	-0/+2

2011-10-10	* Install NixManifest.pm, NixConfig.pm and GeneratePatches.pm under	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	the Nix:: namespace.
2011-04-11	* configure: detect whether DBD::SQLite is present. If necessary the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	location to DBI and DBD::SQLite can be passed with --with-dbi and --with-dbd-sqlite.
2010-11-16	* Sync with the trunk.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2010-10-04	* "type -P" isn't portable.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2010-05-12	* Sync with the trunk.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2010-04-19	* Drop the dependency on the ATerm library.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2010-03-11	* Sync with the trunk.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2010-03-05	* nix-prefetch-url depends on sed (see	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/311170).
2010-02-24	* Set the path to sqlite3 properly.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2008-05-07	--proxy=proxy:3128	Michael Raskin	1	-0/+1

2008-04-10	* Make really sure that we use bash. The line	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	NEED_PROG(shell, bash) actually uses the content of $shell if set, which often points at /bin/sh.
2007-05-01	* Give unpacked channels more sensible names than 0, 1, ... They now	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	get the basename of the channel URL (e.g., nixpkgs-unstable). The top-level Nix expression of the channel is now an attribute set, the attributes of which are the individual channels (e.g., {nixpkgs_unstable = ...; strategoxt_unstable = ...}). This makes attribute paths ("nix-env -qaA" and "nix-env -iA") more sensible, e.g., "nix-env -iA nixpkgs_unstable.subversion".
2006-07-21	* Purify `make check'.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2006-04-25	* Unless --with-bzip2 is specified, use a copy of bzip2 in the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	externals directory. This is in particular useful because though most systems have bzip2/bunzip2, they don't always have libbz2, which we need for bsdiff/bspatch.
2006-03-01	* Add a test for nix-log2xml.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2006-03-01	* Make it easy to run individual tests from the command line.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2006-02-01	* bsdiff updated to 4.3. This makes Nix depend on libbz2.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2005-03-15	* Purify all corepkgs builders.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2004-05-04	* A test to verify that Nix executes build jobs in parallel, if	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	possible. This test fails right now because this hasn't been implemented right now. Yes, I'm doing Test-Driven Development! ;-)
2004-04-06	* Switched from wget to curl.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+4
	* Made the dependencies on bzip2 and the shell explicit.
2004-03-15	* Make perl a dependency of Nix.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2004-02-20	* Use $(storedir) instead of $(prefix)/store.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2004-01-02	* Generate RPM spec file.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2

2003-12-23	* nix-pull requires libexecdir to be substituted.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-12-01	* Use a system name that does not include the OS manufacturer (i.e.,	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	"i686-linux" instead of "i686-suse-linux").
2003-11-24	* Autoconf sucks.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2003-11-22	* Maintain integrity of the substitute and successor mappings when	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+7
	deleting a path in the store. * Allow absolute paths in Nix expressions. * Get nix-prefetch-url to work again. * Various other fixes.
2003-08-06	* Scan for wget and use the full path in fetchurl.sh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	* Use nix-hash (not md5sum) in fetchurl.sh.
2003-07-20	* Refactorings.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+8
