	Previously, if a directory `foo` existed and a file `foo-` (where `-` is any character that is sorted before `/`), then `readDirectory` would return an empty list. To fix this, we now use a tree where we can just access the children of the node, and do not need to rely on sorting behavior to list the contents of a directory.
2017-05-11	Add an option for extending the user agent header	Eelco Dolstra
	This is useful e.g. for distinguishing traffic to a binary cache (e.g. certain machines can use a different tag in the user agent).
2017-05-11	Fix typo	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-11	Tweak error message	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-11	Don't allow untrusted users to set info.ultimate	Eelco Dolstra
	Note that a trusted signature was still required in this case so it was not a huge deal.
2017-05-11	Change the meaning of info.ultimate	Eelco Dolstra
	It now means "paths that were built locally". It no longer includes paths that were added locally. For those we don't need info.ultimate, since we have the content-addressability assertion (info.ca).
2017-05-11	LocalStore::addToStore(): Check info.narSize	Eelco Dolstra
	It allowed the client to specify bogus narSize values. In particular, Downloader::downloadCached wasn't setting narSize at all.
2017-05-10	Typo	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-10	Replace readline by linenoise	Eelco Dolstra
	Using linenoise avoids a license compatibility issue (#1356), is a lot smaller and doesn't pull in ncurses.
2017-05-10	doc: builtins.attrNames returns alphabetically sorted list	Domen Kožar

2017-05-08	Add "nix edit" command	Eelco Dolstra
	This is a little convenience command that opens the Nix expression of the specified package. For example, nix edit nixpkgs.perlPackages.Moose opens <nixpkgs/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix> in $EDITOR (at the right line number for some editors). This requires the package to have a meta.position attribute.

2017-05-08	build-remote: Check remote build status	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-08	Remove superfluous #ifdef	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-05	Make the location of the build directory in the sandbox configurable	Eelco Dolstra
	This is mostly for use in the sandbox tests, since if the Nix store is under /build, then we can't use /build as the build directory.
2017-05-05	Figure out the user's home directory if $HOME is not set	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-04	Linux sandbox: Use /build instead of /tmp as $TMPDIR	Eelco Dolstra
	There is a security issue when a build accidentally stores its $TMPDIR in some critical place, such as an RPATH. If TMPDIR=/tmp/nix-build-..., then any user on the system can recreate that directory and inject libraries into the RPATH of programs executed by other users. Since /build probably doesn't exist (or isn't world-writable), this mitigates the issue.
2017-05-04	nix dump-path: Add	Eelco Dolstra
	This is primarily useful for extracting NARs from other stores (like binary caches), which "nix-store --dump" cannot do.

2017-05-03	nix-shell: Implement passAsFile	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-03	nix eval: Add a --raw flag	Eelco Dolstra
	Similar to "jq -r", this prints the evaluation result (which must be a string value) unquoted.
2017-05-03	Fix perlBindings.x86_64-darwin	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-03	Merge pull request #1371 from regnat/doc_--xml_fix	Eelco Dolstra
	fix the description of --xml and --json
2017-05-03	doc: fix the description of --xml and --json	regnat
	Those options seem to only apply with --eval and not with --parse.
2017-05-02	build-remote: Add a basic test	Eelco Dolstra
	This only runs on Linux because it requires a diverted store (which uses mount/user namespaces).
2017-05-02	Fix "nix ... --all"	Eelco Dolstra
	When "--all" is used, we should not fill in a default installable.
2017-05-02	Add a test for diverted stores	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-02	LocalStoreAccessor: Fix handling of diverted stores	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-02	Replace $NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS with an option "builder-files"	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, to unify with hydra-queue-runner, allow it to be a list of files.
2017-05-02	build-remote: Fix fallback to other machines when connecting fails	Eelco Dolstra
	Opening an SSHStore or LegacySSHStore does not actually establish a connection, so the try/catch block here did nothing. Added a Store::connect() method to test whether a connection can be established.
2017-05-02	Add an option for specifying remote builders	Eelco Dolstra
	This is useful for one-off situations where you want to specify a builder on the command line instead of having to mess with nix.machines. E.g. $ nix-build -A hello --argstr system x86_64-darwin \ --option builders 'root@macstadium1 x86_64-darwin' will perform the specified build on "macstadium1". It also removes the need for a separate nix.machines file since you can specify builders in nix.conf directly. (In fact nix.machines is yet another hack that predates the general nix.conf configuration file, IIRC.) Note: this option is supported by the daemon for trusted users. The fact that this allows trusted users to specify paths to SSH keys to which they don't normally have access is maybe a bit too much trust...
2017-05-02	Factor out machines.conf parsing	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows hydra-queue-runner to use it.
2017-05-02	build-hook: If there are no machines defined, quit permanently	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-02	Fix build hook test	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-02	build-remote: Ugly hackery to get build logs to work	Eelco Dolstra
	The build hook mechanism expects build log output to go to file descriptor 4, so do that.
2017-05-01	build-remote: Don't require signatures	Eelco Dolstra
	This restores the old behaviour.
2017-05-01	Support arbitrary store URIs in nix.machines	Eelco Dolstra
	For backwards compatibility, if the URI is just a hostname, ssh:// (i.e. LegacySSHStore) is prepended automatically. Also, all fields except the URI are now optional. For example, this is a valid nix.machines file: local?root=/tmp/nix This is useful for testing the remote build machinery since you don't have to mess around with ssh.
2017-05-01	Minor cleanup	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Implement LegacySSHStore::buildDerivation()	Eelco Dolstra
	This makes LegacySSHStore usable by build-remote and hydra-queue-runner.
2017-05-01	Chomp log output from the build hook	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD	Eelco Dolstra
	This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment variables predate nix.conf. The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote). The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now.
2017-05-01	build-remote: Don't copy the .drv closure	Eelco Dolstra
	Since build-remote uses buildDerivation() now, we don't need to copy the .drv file anymore. This greatly reduces the set of input paths copied to the remote side (e.g. from 392 to 51 store paths for GNU hello on x86_64-darwin).
2017-05-01	Pass verbosity level to build hook	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Reduce severity of EMLINK warnings	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #1357.
2017-05-01	Add a dummy Store::buildPaths() method	Eelco Dolstra
	This default implementation of buildPaths() does nothing if all requested paths are already valid, and throws an "unsupported operation" error otherwise. This fixes a regression introduced by c30330df6f67c81986dfb124631bc756c8e58c0d in binary cache and legacy SSH stores.
2017-05-01	Merge pull request #1366 from Mic92/fix-nix-daemon-service	Eelco Dolstra
