2013-11-22	Introduce variables GLOBAL_CFLAGS and GLOBAL_CXXFLAGS	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	Bump version number	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	Generalise meta attributes	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	Shorter error message	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	nix-env -q: Add a --json flag	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	Refactor JSON output	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-19	Add a toJSON primop	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-18	Add a primop unsafeGetAttrPos to return the position of an attribute	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-18	Add a symbol __curPos that expands to the current source location	Eelco Dolstra
	I.e. an attribute set { file = <string>; line = <int>; column = <int>; }.
2013-11-18	Support quoted attribute names in -A	Eelco Dolstra
	This is requires if you have attribute names with dots in them. So you can now say: $ nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A 'config.systemd.units."postgresql.service".text' --eval-only Fixes #151.
2013-11-14	Remove nix-setuid-helper	Eelco Dolstra
	AFAIK, nobody uses it, it's not maintained, and it has no tests.
2013-11-12	Make function calls show up in stack traces again	Eelco Dolstra
	Note that adding --show-trace prevents functions calls from being tail-recursive, so an expression that evaluates without --show-trace may fail with a stack overflow if --show-trace is given.
2013-11-12	Add a test to check that tail calls run in bounded stack space	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-12	Make function calls tail-recursive	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-12	Make ifs and asserts tail-recursive	Eelco Dolstra
	The local Value object prevented g++ from making a tail call. Not clear why. In any case, not using a temporary makes g++ do the tail call.
2013-11-12	Get rid of an intermediary on the stack	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-28	Fix building without a garbage collector	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6695350
2013-10-28	Fix a segfault in genericClosure	Eelco Dolstra
	It kept temporary data in STL containers that were not scanned by Boehm GC, so Nix programs using genericClosure could randomly crash if the garbage collector kicked in at a bad time. Also make it a bit more efficient by copying points to values rather than values.
2013-10-28	Drop Cygwin and Solaris builds	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-28	Update release notes, set version for 1.6.1 release	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-28	Slightly optimize listToAttrs	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Undocument obsolete form of "let"	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Doc fix	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Fix segfault on Darwin	Eelco Dolstra
	Ever since SQLite in Nixpkgs was updated to 3.8.0.2, Nix has randomly segfaulted on Darwin: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6175515 http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6611038 It turns out that this is because the binary cache substituter somehow ends up loading two versions of SQLite: the one in Nixpkgs and the other from /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib. It's not exactly clear why the latter is loaded, but it appears to be because WWW::Curl indirectly loads /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation, which in turn seems to load /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib. This leads to a segfault when Perl exits: #0 0x00000001010375f4 in sqlite3_finalize () #1 0x000000010125806e in sqlite_st_destroy () #2 0x000000010124bc30 in XS_DBD__SQLite__st_DESTROY () #3 0x00000001001c8155 in XS_DBI_dispatch () ... #14 0x0000000100023224 in perl_destruct () #15 0x0000000100000d6a in main () ... The workaround is to explicitly load DBD::SQLite before WWW::Curl.
2013-10-24	Rename "attribute sets" to "sets"	Eelco Dolstra
	We don't have any other kind of sets so calling them attribute sets is unnecessarily verbose.
2013-10-24	Manual: Fix broken URLs	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #172.
2013-10-24	Add rpm_fedora19i386 to the release-critical builds	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Remove unnecessary call to forceStringNoCtx	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Document typeOf	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Add a test of the type primops	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Add a typeOf primop	Eelco Dolstra
	We already have some primops for determining the type of a value, such as isString, but they're incomplete: for instance, there is no isPath. Rather than adding more isBla functions, the generic typeOf function returns a string representing the type of the argument (e.g. "int").
2013-10-24	Document NIX_SHOW_STATS and NIX_COUNT_CALLS	Eelco Dolstra
