2017-08-31Rename a few configuration optionsEelco Dolstra
In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are pointless. So now you can say nix build --no-sandbox instead of nix build --no-build-use-sandbox

2017-02-28Support auto-configuration of build-max-jobsEelco Dolstra
"build-max-jobs" and the "-j" option can now be set to "auto" to use the number of CPUs in the system. (Unlike build-cores, it doesn't use 0 to imply auto-configuration, because a) magic values are a bad idea in general; b) 0 is a legitimate value used to disable local building.) Fixes #1198.
2017-01-03Drop a few more references to all-packages.nixEelco Dolstra
And also don't refer to f-spot, which apparently no longer exists. Issue #1170.

2016-04-25Improved logging abstractionEelco Dolstra
This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the "pretty" log type.
