2019-03-25 | manual: mention the "channel:" shorthand for NIX_PATH | Dmitry Kalinkin | |
Bumped to 15.09 because older channels, when downloaded from nixos.org, require firefox to be accessed via `pkgs.firefox` | |||
2019-01-23 | nix-store: make --dump-db take a list of paths to dump | Spencer Baugh | |
Inside a derivation, exportReferencesGraph already provides a way to dump the Nix database for a specific closure. On the command line, --dump-db gave us the same information, but only for the entire Nix database at once. With this change, one can now pass a list of paths to --dump-db to get the Nix database dumped for just those paths. (The user is responsible for ensuring this is a closure, like for --export). Among other things, this is useful for deploying a closure to a new host without using --import/--export; one can use tar to transfer the store paths, and --dump-db/--load-db to transfer the validity information. This is useful if the new host doesn't actually have Nix yet, and the closure that is being deployed itself contains Nix. | |||

2019-01-18 | Update instructions for Haskell script using nix-shell interpreter | Samuel Evans-Powell | |

2019-01-07 | Don't look for a "pv" program, or mention it in the manual source | John Ericson | |
The manual reference was commented out, and the sole reference to this program other than the configure script. Removed both. | |||

2018-10-20 | Add --graphml option to the nix-store --query command | Antoine Eiche | |
This prints the references graph of the store paths in the graphML format [1]. The graphML format is supported by several graph tools such as the Python Networkx library or the Apache Thinkerpop project. [1] http://graphml.graphdrawing.org | |||

Maybe there is a better place to document this, which is more generic? | |||
2018-04-30 | nix-collect-garbage: little doc fix | Danylo Hlynskyi | |
This removes confusing documentation. It's better to remove doc than add implementation, because Nix 1.12 will surely have new GC interface anyway. Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/641 | |||

Commit c2154d4c8422ddc1c201d503bb52edff854af2ad renamed "build-use-substitutes" to "use-substitutes", but that broke "nix-copy-closure --use-substitutes". | |||
