2018-02-07	Merge pull request #1816 from shlevy/add-path	Eelco Dolstra
	Add path primop.
2018-02-06	Add path primop.	Shea Levy
	builtins.path allows specifying the name of a path (which makes paths with store-illegal names now addable), allows adding paths with flat instead of recursive hashes, allows specifying a filter (so is a generalization of filterSource), and allows specifying an expected hash (enabling safe path adding in pure mode).
2018-02-03	Remove nix-build --hash	Eelco Dolstra
	Instead, if a fixed-output derivation produces has an incorrect output hash, we now unconditionally move the outputs to the path corresponding with the actual hash and register it as valid. Thus, after correcting the hash in the Nix expression (e.g. in a fetchurl call), the fixed-output derivation doesn't have to be built again. It would still be good to have a command for reporting the actual hash of a fixed-output derivation (instead of throwing an error), but "nix-build --hash" didn't do that.

2018-02-01	Remove docs on removed --drv-link and --add-drv-link options	Eelco Dolstra

2018-01-31	document ability to set NIX_REMOTE=unix://path/to/socket	Spencer Baugh

2018-01-31	Rename 1.12 -> 2.0	Eelco Dolstra
	Following discussion with Shea and Graham. It's a big enough change from the last release. Also, from a semver perspective, 2.0 makes more sense because we did remove some interfaces (like nix-pull/nix-push).
2018-01-31	Add 'nix upgrade-nix' command	Eelco Dolstra
	This command upgrades Nix to the latest stable version by installing a store path obtained from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/raw/master/nixos/modules/installer/tools/nix-fallback-paths.nix which is the same store path that the installer at https://nixos.org/nix/install.sh uses. The upgrade fails if Nix is not installed in a profile (e.g. on NixOS, or when installed outside of the Nix store).

2018-01-09	nix.conf: builders-use-substitutes	Renzo Carbonara
	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".

	Add builtins.concatStringSep to the manual

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.
2017-11-03	Remove git:// support in NIX_PATH	Eelco Dolstra
	This didn't support specifying a revision/branch, and was restricted to git:// URIs (since https:// or ssh:// would be ambiguous).
2017-11-01	Mention isFloat function in "Built-in Functions" section	Zoran Plesivčak

2017-11-01	Mention "float" type in builtins.typeOf section of the docs	Zoran Plesivčak
	+ remove trailing whitespace from the file
2017-10-30	Add option allowed-uris	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows network access in restricted eval mode.
2017-10-30	fetchurl/fetchTarball are not allowed in restricted mode	Eelco Dolstra
	Accidentally committed this change as part of f9686885be54a9b0f8947713a414de4ad3182037. Restricted mode != pure mode.
2017-10-30	Merge pull request #1633 from orivej/doc	Domen Kožar
	Update the language documentation
2017-10-30	fetchgit -> fetchGit	Eelco Dolstra
	Almost all other primops are camelCase so no reason not to use that here.

2017-10-23	Release note updates	Eelco Dolstra

2017-10-19	Mention C++14 dependency in the manual.	Keshav Kini
	A couple makefiles in the sources have -std=c++14 in the CFLAGS.
2017-09-18	Update release notes	Eelco Dolstra

2017-09-05	Add automatic garbage collection	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix can now automatically run the garbage collector during builds or while adding paths to the store. The option "min-free = <bytes>" specifies that Nix should run the garbage collector whenever free space in the Nix store drops below <bytes>. It will then delete garbage until "max-free" bytes are available. Garbage collection during builds is asynchronous; running builds are not paused and new builds are not blocked. However, there also is a synchronous GC run prior to the first build/substitution. Currently, no old GC roots are deleted (as in "nix-collect-garbage -d").
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
2017-08-19	Remove nix-mode.el from Nix.	Matthew Bauer
	This removes the file nix-mode.el from Nix. The file is now available within the repository https://github.com/NixOS/nix-mode. Fixes #662 Fixes #1040 Fixes #1054 Fixes #1055 Closes #1119 Fixes #1419 NOTE: all of the above should be fixed within NixOS/nix-mode. If one of those hasn’t please reopen within NixOS/nix-mode and not within NixOS/nix.

2017-08-15	Add builtins.string function.	Nicolas B. Pierron
	The function 'builtins.split' takes a POSIX extended regular expression and an arbitrary string. It returns a list of non-matching substring interleaved by lists of matched groups of the regular expression. ```nix with builtins; assert split "(a)b" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" ] "c" ]; assert split "([ac])" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" ] "b" [ "c" ] "" ]; assert split "(a)\|(c)" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" null ] "b" [ null "c" ] "" ]; assert split "([[:upper:]]+)" " FOO " == [ " " [ "FOO" ] " " ]; ```
