2018-02-21 | Manual: Update chapter on remote builds | Eelco Dolstra | |
Alos add a command "nix ping-store" to make it easier to see if Nix can connect to a remote builder (e.g. 'nix ping-store --store ssh://mac'). | |||

Fixes #937 | |||
2018-01-04 | Rename "use-substitutes" to "substitute" | Eelco Dolstra | |
Commit c2154d4c8422ddc1c201d503bb52edff854af2ad renamed "build-use-substitutes" to "use-substitutes", but that broke "nix-copy-closure --use-substitutes". | |||
2017-12-09 | Escape left angle brackets in XML documentation | Joe Hermaszewski | |
2017-12-08 | nix-hash: Add sentence and example for nix-prefetch-url hash | Markus Hauck | |
2017-11-21 | Add a warning about the 'trusted-users' option | Eelco Dolstra | |
2017-11-20 | Document secret-key-files | Eelco Dolstra | |
2017-11-20 | signed-binary-caches -> require-sigs | Eelco Dolstra | |
Unlike signed-binary-caches (which could only be '*' or ''), require-sigs is a proper Boolean option. The default is true. | |||
2017-11-20 | binary-cache-public-keys -> trusted-public-keys | Eelco Dolstra | |
The name had become a misnomer since it's not only for substitution from binary caches, but when adding/copying any (non-content-addressed) path to a store. | |||
2017-10-30 | Add option allowed-uris | Eelco Dolstra | |
This allows network access in restricted eval mode. | |||
2017-08-31 | Rename a few configuration options | Eelco 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 | |||
2017-07-30 | replace "Mac OS X" with "macOS" | davidak | |
except in older release notes where the name was actually Mac OS X. | |||
2017-07-17 | Make the hashes mirrors used by builtins.fetchurl configurable | Eelco Dolstra | |
In particular, this allows it to be disabled in our tests. | |||

2017-07-07 | man page (nix-shell): Fix grouping of -p option | Robert Vollmert | |

2017-07-07 | man pages: Argument for --max-jobs | Robert Vollmert | |
2017-07-07 | man pages: Grouping for option alternatives | Robert Vollmert | |
2017-07-06 | Fix nix-instantiate manpage indentation | Robert Vollmert | |
The second command variant is now its own cmdsynopsis, which ensures it's not indented as was the case using sbrk. | |||
2017-07-04 | Add allow-new-privileges option | Eelco Dolstra | |
This allows builds to call setuid binaries. This was previously possible until we started using seccomp. Turns out that seccomp by default disallows processes from acquiring new privileges. Generally, any use of setuid binaries (except those created by the builder itself) is by definition impure, but some people were relying on this ability for certain tests. Example: $ nix build '(with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" {} "/run/wrappers/bin/ping -c 1 8.8.8.8; exit 1")' --no-allow-new-privileges builder for ‘/nix/store/j0nd8kv85hd6r4kxgnwzvr0k65ykf6fv-foo.drv’ failed with exit code 1; last 2 log lines: cannot raise the capability into the Ambient set : Operation not permitted $ nix build '(with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" {} "/run/wrappers/bin/ping -c 1 8.8.8.8; exit 1")' --allow-new-privileges builder for ‘/nix/store/j0nd8kv85hd6r4kxgnwzvr0k65ykf6fv-foo.drv’ failed with exit code 1; last 6 log lines: PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=46 time=15.2 ms Fixes #1429. | |||
2017-05-03 | Merge pull request #1371 from regnat/doc_--xml_fix | Eelco Dolstra | |
fix the description of --xml and --json | |||
2017-05-03 | doc: fix the description of --xml and --json | regnat | |
Those options seem to only apply with --eval and not with --parse. | |||
2017-05-01 | Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD | Eelco Dolstra | |
This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment variables predate nix.conf. The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote). The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now. | |||
2017-04-24 | Merge pull request #1348 from armijnhemel/nix-env | Eelco Dolstra | |
better document --meta option for nix-env |
