2012-07-30	Remove unused variables	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-30	Fix whitespace	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	Allow a binary cache to declare that it doesn't support "nix-env -qas"	Eelco Dolstra
	Querying all substitutable paths via "nix-env -qas" is potentially hard on a server, since it involves sending thousands of HEAD requests. So a binary cache must now have a meta-info file named "nix-cache-info" that specifies whether the server wants this. It also specifies the store prefix so that we don't send useless queries to a binary cache for a different store prefix.
2012-07-27	Use "set -x" in the tests to see where a test fails	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	Test "nix-env -qas" with the binary cache substituter	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	Let build.cc verify the expected hash of a substituter's output	Eelco Dolstra
	Since SubstitutionGoal::finished() in build.cc computes the hash anyway, we can prevent the inefficiency of computing the hash twice by letting the substituter tell Nix about the expected hash, which can then verify it.
2012-07-27	Remove more tabs	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	download-using-manifests: Don't use nix-prefetch-url	Eelco Dolstra
	Instead call curl directly and pipe it into ‘nix-store --restore’. This saves I/O and prevents creating garbage in the Nix store.
2012-07-27	Remove trailing whitespace / tabs	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	download-from-binary-cache: Only use the default cache for /nix/store	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	nix-push: Support generating a manifest again	Eelco Dolstra
	This makes all the tests succeed. Woohoo!
2012-07-26	Fix the substituter tests	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	nix-push: Remove the upload feature	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	Add a test for the binary cache substituter	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	Clear NIX_STORE when running the tests	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	download-from-binary-cache: Support file://	Eelco Dolstra
	The file:// URI schema requires checking for errors in a more general way. Also, don't cache file:// lookups.
2012-07-26	Add some .gitignore entries	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	Set permissions on temporary build directories to 0700	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #39.
2012-07-25	nix-profile.sh: Don't set NIX_REMOTE on single user installations	Eelco Dolstra
	Commit 6a214f3e06fa1c5f0a4d40e555f14d87691af297 reused the NixOS environment initialisation for nix-profile.sh, but this is inappropriate on systems that don't have multi-user support enabled.
2012-07-25	Subscribe to the Nixpkgs rather than NixOS channel	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-25	prim_import: When importing .drvs, allocate the intermediate attrset on the ↵	Shea Levy
	heap just in case it escapes the stack frame.
2012-07-25	Turn tests back on	Shea Levy

2012-07-25	import: If the path is a valid .drv file, parse it and generate a derivation ↵	Shea Levy
	attrset. The generated attrset has drvPath and outPath with the right string context, type 'derivation', outputName with the right name, all with a list of outputs, and an attribute for each output. I see three uses for this (though certainly there may be more): * Using derivations generated by something besides nix-instantiate (e.g. guix) * Allowing packages provided by channels to be used in nix expressions. If a channel installed a valid deriver for each package it provides into the store, then those could be imported and used as dependencies or installed in environment.systemPackages, for example. * Enable hydra to be consistent in how it treats inputs that are outputs of another build. Right now, if an input is passed as an argument to the job, it is passed as a derivation, but if it is accessed via NIX_PATH (i.e. through the <> syntax), then it is a path that can be imported. This is problematic because the build being depended upon may have been built with non-obvious arguments passed to its jobset file. With this feature, hydra can just set the name of that input to the path to its drv file in NIX_PATH
2012-07-25	Disable tests temporarily	Shea Levy

2012-07-23	Handle platforms that don't support linking to a symlink	Eelco Dolstra
	E.g. Darwin doesn't allow this.
2012-07-23	Unlink the right file	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-23	Add a test for Nix store optimisation	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-23	Garbage collect unused links in /nix/store/.links	Eelco Dolstra
	Incremental optimisation requires creating links in /nix/store/.links to all files in the store. However, this means that if we delete a store path, no files are actually deleted because links in /nix/store/.links still exists. So we need to check /nix/store/.links for files with a link count of 1 and delete them.
2012-07-23	Automatically optimise the Nix store when a new path is added	Eelco Dolstra
	Auto-optimisation is enabled by default. It can be turned off by setting auto-optimise-store to false in nix.conf.
2012-07-23	optimiseStore(): Use a content-addressed file store in /nix/store/.links	Eelco Dolstra
	optimiseStore() now creates persistent, content-addressed hard links in /nix/store/.links. For instance, if it encounters a file P with hash H, it will create a hard link P' = /nix/store/.link/<H> to P if P' doesn't already exist; if P' exist, then P is replaced by a hard link to P'. This is better than the previous in-memory map, because it had the tendency to unnecessarily replace hard links with a hard link to whatever happened to be the first file with a given hash it encountered. It also allows on-the-fly, incremental optimisation.
2012-07-23	nix-build: Support the ‘-’ argument to build an expression from stdin	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-23	Use lutimes() if available to canonicalise the timestamp of symlinks	Eelco Dolstra
	Also use utimes() instead of utime() if lutimes() is not available.

2012-07-18	download-from-binary-cache: Print correct URL	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-18	Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-17	Add function queryPathFromHashPart()	Eelco Dolstra
	To implement binary caches efficiently, Hydra needs to be able to map the hash part of a store path (e.g. "gbg...zr7") to the full store path (e.g. "/nix/store/gbg...kzr7-subversion-1.7.5"). (The binary cache mechanism uses hash parts as a key for looking up store paths to ensure privacy.) However, doing a search in the Nix store for /nix/store/<hash>* is expensive since it requires reading the entire directory. queryPathFromHashPart() prevents this by doing a cheap database lookup.
2012-07-17	queryPathInfo(): return hash in base-32 if desired	Eelco Dolstra
	Cherry-picked from the no-manifests branch.
2012-07-17	Print some debug output	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-17	Return an exit code of 100 for cached failed builds	Eelco Dolstra
