add ccacheStdenv

Make sure that people who run Nix in non-interactive mode (and so don't have the possibility to interactively accept the individual flake configuration settings) are aware of this flag.

when using ccache, rebuild time has been measured
89% faster while not slowing the speed of cold builds

These settings seem harmless, they control the same polling
functionality that timeout does, but with different behavior. Should
be safe for untrusted users to pass in.

Hopefully this is best!

I just had a colleague get confused by the previous phrase for good
reason. "valid" sounds like an *objective* criterion, e.g. and *invalid
signature* would be one that would be trusted by no one, e.g. because it
misformatted or something.
What is actually going is that there might be a signature which is
perfectly valid to *someone else*, but not to the user, because they
don't trust the corresponding public key. This is a *subjective*
criterion, because it depends on the arbitrary and personal choice of
which public keys to trust.
I therefore think "trustworthy" is a better adjective to use. Whether
something is worthy of trust is clearly subjective, and then "trust"
within that word nicely evokes `trusted-public-keys` and friends.

nix repl: warn if creating dir for history fails
|
|
The history is not critical to the functionality of nix repl, so it's
enough to warn here, rather than refuse to start if the directory Nix
thinks the history should live in can't be created.

Improve durability of schema version file writes
|
|
|
|
- call close explicitly in writeFile to prevent the close exception
from being ignored
- fsync after writing schema file to flush data to disk
- fsync schema file parent to flush metadata to disk

issue template: fill 'about' field
|
|
according to [GitHub documentation] some fields are required.
`about` is not listed, but it probably is required.

Remove the `verify TLS: Nix CA file = 'blah'` message that Nix used to print when fetching anything as it's both useless (`libcurl` prints the same info in its logs) and misleading (gives the impression that a new TLS connection is being established which might not be the case because of multiplexing. See #7011 )

Mainly:
- Try to triangulate between narrative that framed this as
a new/easy process and the need for a reference that will
not quickly grow stale.
- Fix a ~continuity issue where the text was talking about
"your Cachix cache" before saying that you'd need to make
a Cachix cache to enable the installer tests.
- Adopt suggestion on titling, and nest subtitles in the
installer test section.

libexpr/fetchurl.nix: allow __impure fetch

add issue template for missing or incorrect documentation
|
|
This commit adds an optional `__impure` parameter to fetchurl.nix, which allows
the caller to use `libfetcher`'s fetcher in an impure derivation. This allows
nixpkgs' patch-normalizing fetcher (fetchpatch) to be rewritten to use nix's
internal fetchurl, thereby eliminating the awkward "you can't use fetchpatch
here" banners scattered all over the place.

Currently root's shell is set to a path that does not exist; this change
sets it to the correct path to bash

This runs the installer in a QEMU VM. Unlike the old installer test
that ran inside a declaratively built RedHat/Debian image, this uses
an image from Vagrant.

DeterminateSystems/graham/ds-327-fish-support-for-the-nix-installer
Add Fish suport to the Nix installer
|
|
issue template: add feature label
|
|
Signed-off-by: Ana Hobden <operator@hoverbear.org>
|
|
Before this patch, installing Nix using the Fish shell did not
work because Fish wasn't configured to add Nix to the PATH. Some
options in #1512 offered workarounds, but they typically involve
extra plugins or packages.
This patch adds native, out-of-the-box support for the Fish shell.
Note that Fish supports a `conf.d` directory, which is intended
for exactly use cases like this: software projects distributing
shell snippets. This patch takes advantage of it. The installer
doesn't append any Nix loader behavior to any Fish config file.
Because of that, the uninstall process is smooth and a reinstall
obliterates the existing nix.fish files that we place instead of
bothering the user with a backup / manual removal.
Both single-user and multi-user cases are covered. It has been
tested on Ubuntu, and a Mac with MacPorts, homebrew, and the
Fish installer pkg.
Closes #1512
