2006-04-25	* Create libexec.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-04-25	* Typo.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-04-25	* Unless --with-bzip2 is specified, use a copy of bzip2 in the	Eelco Dolstra
	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.
2006-03-24	* Print a more useful stack trace when an error occurs deep in the	Eelco Dolstra
	derivation dependency graph.
2006-03-23	* In `nix-env', look for derivations inside attribute sets that have	Eelco Dolstra
	the `recurseForDerivations' attribute set to `true'.
2006-03-23	* Hm.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-15	* Update copyright.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-14	* Allow the resulting symlink of nix-build to be named, e.g.,	Eelco Dolstra
	$ nix-build .../i686-linux.nix -A apacheHttpd -o apache
2006-03-10	* Allow `make check' to work in directories that have symlink	Eelco Dolstra
	components.
2006-03-10	* `nix-env -qa --description' shows human-readable descriptions of	Eelco Dolstra
	packages (provided that they have a `meta.description' attribute). E.g., $ ./src/nix-env/nix-env -qa --description gcc gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for sparc-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for mips-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for arm-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x
2006-03-10	* Oops.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-10	* In theory, this should reduce the number of ATermMap	Eelco Dolstra
	re-allocations.
2006-03-10	* `nix-env -q' now accepts arguments that allow specific derivations	Eelco Dolstra
	to be queried, e.g., `nix-env -qa firefox'. This does require the argument '' to be passed if one wants information about all derivations, so the old `nix-env -qa' now is `nix-env -qa ""'.
2006-03-10	* Write messages to stderr, not stdout.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-09	* Ugh, printHash() was very inefficient because it used	Eelco Dolstra
	ostringstreams. Around 11% of execution time was spent here (now it's 0.5%).
2006-03-09	* Regression: semantics of the result of getDerivation() changed.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-09	* Big speedup (factor > 2.5) in all nix-env operations that do actual	Eelco Dolstra
	instantiation, e.g. "nix-env -i" and "nix-env -qas" (but not "nix-env -qa"). It turns out that many redundant calls to addToStore(path) were made, which reads and hashes the entire path. For instance, the bash bootstrap binary in Nixpkgs would be read and hashed many times. As a result nix-env would spend around 92% of its time in the function sha256_block (according to callgrind). Some simple memoization fixes this.
2006-03-08	* When obtaining derivations from Nix expressions, ignore all	Eelco Dolstra
	expressions that cause an assertion failure (like `assert system == "i686-linux"'). This allows all-packages.nix in Nixpkgs to be used on all platforms, even if some Nix expressions don't work on all platforms. Not sure if this is a good idea; it's a bit hacky. In particular, due to laziness some derivations might appear in `nix-env -qa' but disappear in `nix-env -qas' or `nix-env -i'. Commit 5000!
2006-03-08	* Some refactoring of the exception handling code so that we can catch	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix expression assertion failures.
2006-03-06	* GCC 4.1 compatibility.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-06	* `nix-env (-i\|-u) --dry-run' now shows exactly which missing paths	Eelco Dolstra
	will be built or substituted.
2006-03-06	* Regularise help text a bit.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-03	* More online help.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-03	* Rewrote nix-build in Perl, since sh is just too limited (turns out	Eelco Dolstra
	that arrays are a bash extension, so it didn't work on FreeBSD). Also fixes NIX-8 (readlink(1) dependency).
2006-03-01	* Tests for fixed-output derivations (and attribute selection, incidentally).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Tests to prevent a repeat of the parseHash32 debacle.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Flags `--to-base32' and `--to-base16' to convert between hex and	Eelco Dolstra
	base-32 hashes.
2006-03-01	* Ouch, parseHash32 was completely broken. All digits >= 4 were	Eelco Dolstra
	parsed as 4. For a moment I worried that printHash32 was broken, and that would have been really, really bad ;-)
2006-03-01	* db.hh shouldn't depend on the Berkeley DB headers.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Close the database before the destructor runs.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* More test coverage.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store -q --binding'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store --add' and `nix-store -q --hash'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* New suppressions.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Uninitialised variable. Fixes the --delete test.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Wrong delete. Thanks valgrind.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* TDD! Woohoo!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Oops!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test the nix-store --gc subflags.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test nix-build. This also tests indirect roots.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Clear the substitutes prior to running the test.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Add a test for nix-log2xml.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Generate valid HTML.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Remove dead code.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Simplification.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Make it easy to run individual tests from the command line.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-02-24	* Remove debug statement.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-02-24	* A script to remove from a manifest those patches whose base or	Eelco Dolstra
	target no longer applies to any available release. This is a partial fix for NIX-34 (when producing linear patch sequences between releases, the number of patches grows without bound).
