2016-11-26	Revert "Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There really is no need for such a massive change...
2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux

2016-07-26	makeFixedOutputPath(): Drop superfluous HashType argument	Eelco Dolstra

2016-06-01	Make the store directory a member variable of Store	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-31	nix-copy-closure / build-remote.pl: Disable signature checking	Eelco Dolstra
	This restores the Nix 1.11 behaviour.
2016-05-31	nix-copy-closure: Drop Nix <= 1.7 compat	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-04	Fix segfault in nix-copy-closure	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-04	Remove OpenSSL-based signing	Eelco Dolstra

2016-04-19	Move path info caching from BinaryCacheStore to Store	Eelco Dolstra
	Caching path info is generally useful. For instance, it speeds up "nix path-info -rS /run/current-system" (i.e. showing the closure sizes of all paths in the closure of the current system) from 5.6s to 0.15s. This also eliminates some APIs like Store::queryDeriver() and Store::queryReferences().
2016-04-11	Remove manifest support	Eelco Dolstra
	Manifests have been superseded by binary caches for years. This also gets rid of nix-pull, nix-generate-patches and bsdiff/bspatch.
2016-02-26	importPaths(): Optionally add NARs to binary cache accessor	Eelco Dolstra
	This enables an optimisation in hydra-queue-runner, preventing a download of a NAR it just uploaded to the cache when reading files like hydra-build-products.
2016-02-16	Add C++ functions for .narinfo processing / signing	Eelco Dolstra
	This is currently only used by the Hydra queue runner rework, but like eff5021eaa6dc69f65ea1a8abe8f3ab11ef5eb0a it presumably will be useful for the C++ rewrite of nix-push and download-from-binary-cache. (@shlevy)
2016-02-16	Rename ValidPathInfo::hash -> narHash for consistency	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-15	Fix nix-copy-closure	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/32005971
2016-02-04	StoreAPI -> Store	Eelco Dolstra
	Calling a class an API is a bit redundant...
2016-02-04	Eliminate the "store" global variable	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation. Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a "T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via std::bind.)
2016-01-07	Fix bad use of croak()	Eelco Dolstra
	Detected by -Werror=format-security. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/29973207
2015-10-09	Provide addTempRoot in the Perl API	Eelco Dolstra
	Needed by Hydra.
2015-09-18	Shut up clang warnings	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-03	Handle base-16 NarHash fields in signed .narinfo files	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-03	Be more robust wrt broken .narinfo files	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-01	Include the cache.nixos.org signing key by default	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-25	addToStore(): Take explicit name argument	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-04	Reduce verbosity in build-remote.pl	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-17	Include NAR size in fingerprint computation	Eelco Dolstra
	This is not strictly needed for integrity (since we already include the NAR hash in the fingerprint) but it helps against endless data attacks [1]. (However, this will also require download-from-binary-cache.pl to bail out if it receives more than the specified number of bytes.) [1] https://isis.poly.edu/~jcappos/papers/cappos_mirror_ccs_08.pdf
2015-02-10	Make libsodium an optional dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-04	Sign a subset of the .narinfo	Eelco Dolstra
	We only need to sign the store path, NAR hash and references (the "fingerprint"). Everything else is irrelevant to security. For instance, the compression algorithm or the hash of the compressed NAR don't matter as long as the contents of the uncompressed NAR are correct. (Maybe we should include derivers in the fingerprint, but they're broken and nobody cares about them. Also, it might be nice in the future if .narinfos contained signatures from multiple independent signers. But that's impossible if the deriver is included in the fingerprint, since everybody will tend to have a different deriver for the same store path.) Also renamed the "Signature" field to "Sig" since the format changed in an incompatible way.
2015-02-04	Use libsodium instead of OpenSSL for binary cache signing	Eelco Dolstra
	Sodium's Ed25519 signatures are much shorter than OpenSSL's RSA signatures. Public keys are also much shorter, so they're now specified directly in the nix.conf option ‘binary-cache-public-keys’. The new command ‘nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key’ generates and prints a public and secret key.
2014-12-09	Link against perl.dll on Cygwin	Marko Durkovic

2014-11-20	Fix bad operator	Eelco Dolstra
	Spotted by Perl 5.20: Possible precedence issue with control flow operator at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20.1/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/Nix/Utils.pm line 46.
2014-11-10	SSH.pm: Print a friendlier message if connecting fails	Eelco Dolstra
	"got EOF while expecting 8 bytes from remote side" is not very helpful.
2014-10-14	Remove unused @sshOpts flag	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #300.
2014-09-18	Remove debug statement	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-18	Store.so: Add dependency on libnixutil	Eelco Dolstra
	Issue #346.
2014-08-23	Fix building with Clang	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-20	Use proper quotes everywhere	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Use $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for temporary files	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-24	nix-copy-closure: Drop --bzip2, --xz, --show-progress	Eelco Dolstra
	These are too difficult to implement via nix-store --serve. ‘--show-progress’ could be re-implemented fairly easily via a sink/source wrapper class.
2014-07-24	Fix NIX_SSHOPTS	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #302.
2014-07-24	Remove obsolete SSH master connection code	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-24	Refactor	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-12	build-remote.pl: Don't keep a shell process around	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-12	build-remote.pl: Fix build log	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-11	build-remote.pl: Use ‘nix-store --serve’ on the remote side	Eelco Dolstra
	This makes things more efficient (we don't need to use an SSH master connection, and we only start a single remote process) and gets rid of locking issues (the remote nix-store process will keep inputs and outputs locked as long as they're needed). It also makes it more or less secure to connect directly to the root account on the build machine, using a forced command (e.g. ‘command="nix-store --serve --write"’). This bypasses the Nix daemon and is therefore more efficient. Also, don't call nix-store to import the output paths.
2014-07-11	Fix closure size display	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-10	Fix use of sysread	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-10	nix-copy-closure -s: Do substitutions via ‘nix-store --serve’	Eelco Dolstra
	This means we no longer need an SSH master connection, since we only execute a single command on the remote host.
2014-07-10	nix-copy-closure: Fix --dry-run	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-10	nix-copy-closure: Restore compression and the progress viewer	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-10	nix-copy-closure: Fix race condition	Eelco Dolstra
	There is a long-standing race condition when copying a closure to a remote machine, particularly affecting build-remote.pl: the client first asks the remote machine which paths it already has, then copies over the missing paths. If the garbage collector kicks in on the remote machine between the first and second step, the already-present paths may be deleted. The missing paths may then refer to deleted paths, causing nix-copy-closure to fail. The client now performs both steps using a single remote Nix call (using ‘nix-store --serve’), locking all paths in the closure while querying. I changed the --serve protocol a bit (getting rid of QueryCommand), so this breaks the SSH substituter from older versions. But it was marked experimental anyway. Fixes #141.
