2010-03-16* Fix building on Cygwin (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/325071).Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-16* Fix a broken link (reported by Peter Koppstein).Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-14Merge r20344 & r20346.Nicolas Pierron
2010-03-11Uh. somehow a Makefile tab got in as spaces. Fixing.Lluís Batlle i Rossell
2010-03-11Making 'bin2c' to be built with the compiler for the local system.Lluís Batlle i Rossell
I copied the configure.ac code about CC_FOR_BUILD from libX11.
2010-03-11Show the build user's group in /etc/group in chroots.Ludovic Courtès
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Create /etc/group showing the build user's group.
2010-03-11Fix thinko in r20547.Ludovic Courtès
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Fix the GID of the build user in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-11Clear supplementary groups of `nixbld' in /etc/passwd in chroots.Ludovic Courtès
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Don't display any supplementary groups for `nixbld' in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-05* nix-prefetch-url depends on sed (seeEelco Dolstra
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/311170).
2010-02-24* Don't use fdatasync since it doesn't work on Snow Leopard.Eelco Dolstra
* Don't refer to config.h in util.hh, because config.h is not installed (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/303053).
2010-02-23* Use ATerm 2.5.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-23* Run ATerm's `make check'.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-16* Since Hydra now escapes `+', `=' and `?' to %NN in URIs,Eelco Dolstra
nix-prefetch-url should unescape them, because `%' is not a valid character in store path names.
2010-02-12* Typo. Reported by Peter Koppstein.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-10Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU.Ludovic Courtès
2010-02-10Add `.gitignore'.Ludovic Courtès
2010-02-05* Fix a broken link (reported by Bjorn Buckwalter).Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* Bump.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* Grmbl. Timing-sensitive tests are evil.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04(no commit message)Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* "Fix" incorrect help message.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* Don't use ssh's -f flag since it leads to lots of lingering sshEelco Dolstra
processes.
2010-02-04* Doh! The scope of $slotLock should extend to the end of the script,Eelco Dolstra
because otherwise the lock will be released at the end of the while loop.
2010-02-04* Typo.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* Doh! Calling `system' in an END block causes the exit status in $?Eelco Dolstra
to be changed to 0.
2010-02-04* Remove the `cat' calls when not using --gzip.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-04* Revert r19796 for now.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-03* Revert r19797, and use a simpler solution: just don't monitor buildEelco Dolstra
hooks for silence. It's unnecessary because the remote nix-store command is already monitoring the real build.
2010-02-03* While waiting for a lock, print a sign of life every 5 minutes.Eelco Dolstra
This prevents remote builders from being killed by the `max-silent-time' inactivity monitor while they are waiting for a long garbage collection to finish. This happens fairly often in the Hydra build farm.
2010-02-03* Respect @sysconfdir@.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-03* In the build hook, if connecting to a machine fails, try the otherEelco Dolstra
machines of the right type (if available). This makes the build farm more robust to failures.
2010-02-03* Use SSH connection sharing in the remote build script.Eelco Dolstra
* Removed the Cygwin password hack since the problem is apparently fixed in Visual Studio.
2010-02-03* nix-copy-closure: start only one SSH connection to the server, orEelco Dolstra
recycle an already existing connection (using OpenSSH's connection sharing feature).
2010-02-03* Updated the release notes.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-02* Ugly hack to make `nix-channel' work on Cygwin.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-02* Don't do a chdir to $tmpDir. It's not necessary, and Windows doesn'tEelco Dolstra
support deleting the current directory.
2010-02-02* Remove most Cygwin-specific code. Cygwin 1.7 implements advisoryEelco Dolstra
POSIX locks, and simulates Unix-style file deletion semantics sufficiently. Note that this means that Nix won't work on Cygwin 1.5 anymore.
2010-02-02* If fdatasync() isn't available, use fsync().Eelco Dolstra
2010-01-29* Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes toEelco Dolstra
/nix/var/nix/db. * Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does (almost) the same thing as writeFile.
2010-01-29* Don't consider a store path valid if its info file exists but isEelco Dolstra
zero bytes long. That makes Nix more robust in case of crashes (especially on ext4).
2010-01-25* Made `nix-store -qR --include-outputs' much faster if there areEelco Dolstra
multiple paths specified on the command line (from O(n * m) to O(n + m), where n is the number of arguments and m is the size of the closure).
2010-01-25* Disable gzip compression in build-remote.pl because it puts too muchEelco Dolstra
load on the Hydra build farm (where it's unnecessary anyway because it has a fast connection to the build machines). In any case, compression can be enabled by using the `-C' option to ssh.
2010-01-25* Make the garbage collector do the right thing when `gc-keep-outputs'Eelco Dolstra
is enabled by not depending on the deriver.
2010-01-12* On startup, set the default SIGCHLD handler. This is so that NixEelco Dolstra
works correctly in weird environments where the SIGCHLD handler is set to "ignore".
2009-12-17* Include config.h before the C library headers, because it definesEelco Dolstra
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Without it, functions like stat() fail on large file sizes. This happened with a Nix store on squashfs: $ nix-store --dump /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds > /dev/null error: getting attributes of path `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds': Value too large for defined data type $ stat /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds File: `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds' Size: 0 Blocks: 36028797018963968 IO Block: 1024 regular empty file (This is a bug in squashfs or mksquashfs, but it shouldn't cause Nix to fail.)
2009-12-16* Build correctly against newer ATerm releases. Fixes "error: 'union'Eelco Dolstra
tag used in naming 'struct _ATerm'".
2009-12-10* Build on Fedora 12.Eelco Dolstra
2009-12-09* Release notes.Eelco Dolstra
2009-12-09* When doing a nix-pull, remove old manifests downloaded from the sameEelco Dolstra
URL. This prevents lots of old cruft accumulating in /nix/var/nix/manifests.
2009-12-09* nix-build: be less verbose.Eelco Dolstra
