2014-02-19	nix-shell: Add --packages flag	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows you to easily set up a build environment containing the specified packages from Nixpkgs. For example: $ nix-shell -p sqlite xorg.libX11 hello will start a shell in which the given packages are present.
2014-02-19	nix-instantiate: Rename --eval-only to --eval, --parse-only to --parse	Eelco Dolstra

2014-02-19	nix-instantiate: Add a flag --expr / -E to read expressions from the command ↵	Eelco Dolstra
	line This is basically a shortcut for ‘echo 'expr...' \| nix-instantiate -’. Also supported by nix-build and nix-shell.
2014-02-19	Move manpages around	Eelco Dolstra

2014-02-17	nix-store --gc --max-freed: Support a unit specifier	Eelco Dolstra
	E.g. "--max-freed 10G" means "free ten gigabytes".
2014-02-17	nix-shell: Execute shellHook if it exists	Eelco Dolstra
	Since normal builds don't execute shellHook, this allows nix-shell specific customisation. Suggested by Domen.
2014-02-12	Document current meaning of preferLocalBuild	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #208.
2014-02-10	Binary tarball: Automatically create /nix	Eelco Dolstra
	The tarball can now be unpacked anywhere. The installation script uses "sudo" to create /nix if it doesn't exist. It also fetches the nixpkgs-unstable channel.
2014-02-10	nix-shell: Use shell.nix as the default expression if it exists	Eelco Dolstra

2014-02-07	Rename --no-readonly-mode --read-write-mode	Shea Levy
	Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2014-02-07	nix-instantiate: Add a --no-readonly-mode flag	Shea Levy
	This allows running nix-instantiate --eval-only without performing the evaluation in readonly mode, letting features like import from derivation and automatic substitution of builtins.storePath paths work. Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>

2013-11-14	Remove nix-setuid-helper	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Doc fix	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Rename "attribute sets" to "sets"	Eelco Dolstra
	We don't have any other kind of sets so calling them attribute sets is unnecessarily verbose.

2013-10-24	Document typeOf	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-24	Document NIX_SHOW_STATS and NIX_COUNT_CALLS	Eelco Dolstra

2013-10-17	Fold two stack trace messages in derivations	Eelco Dolstra
	Combined with the previous changes, stack traces involving derivations are now much less verbose, since something like while evaluating the builtin function `getAttr': while evaluating the builtin function `derivationStrict': while instantiating the derivation named `gtk+-2.24.20' at `/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/development/libraries/gtk+/2.x.nix:11:3': while evaluating the derivation attribute `propagatedNativeBuildInputs' at `/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/stdenv/generic/default.nix:78:17': while evaluating the attribute `outPath' at `/nix/store/212ngf4ph63mp6p1np2bapkfikpakfv7-nix-1.6/share/nix/corepkgs/derivation.nix:18:9': ... now reads while evaluating the attribute `propagatedNativeBuildInputs' of the derivation `gtk+-2.24.20' at `/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/development/libraries/gtk+/2.x.nix:11:3': ...
2013-10-17	Nix 1.6.1 release notes	Eelco Dolstra

2013-09-03	nix-env -i: Add a flag ‘--remove-all’ / ‘-r’	Eelco Dolstra
	This is equivalent to running ‘nix-env -e '*'’ first, except that it happens in a single transaction. Thus, ‘nix-env -i pkgs...’ replaces the profile with the specified set of packages. The main motivation is to support declarative package management (similar to environment.systemPackages in NixOS). That is, if you have a specification ‘profile.nix’ like this: with import <nixpkgs> {}; [ thunderbird geeqie ... ] then after any change to ‘profile.nix’, you can run: $ nix-env -f profile.nix -ir to update the profile to match the specification. (Without the ‘-r’ flag, if you remove a package from ‘profile.nix’, it won't be removed from the actual profile.) Suggested by @zefhemel.
2013-09-02	Manual: Make '' a bit clearer	Eelco Dolstra

2013-09-02	Update the release notes	Eelco Dolstra

2013-09-02	Add an option to limit the log output of builders	Eelco Dolstra
	This is mostly useful for Hydra to deal with builders that get stuck in an infinite loop writing data to stdout/stderr.
