2013-07-11	build-remote.pl: Move "building ..." message to a better place	Eelco Dolstra

2013-07-11	nix-build --run-env: Always use Bash	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #113. Fixes #131.
2013-07-11	nix-build --run-env: Source $stdenv/setup in the interactive shell	Eelco Dolstra
	This ensures that not just environment variables are set, but also shell functions such as unpackPhase, configurePhase and so on.
2013-07-01	Add support for uncompressed NARs in binary caches	Eelco Dolstra
	Issue NixOS/hydra#102.
2013-07-01	copy-from-other-stores.pl: Respect $NIX_BIN_DIR	Eelco Dolstra

2013-07-01	copy-from-other-stores.pl: Report downloaded size as 0	Eelco Dolstra

2013-06-20	Don't keep "disabled" substituters running	Eelco Dolstra
	For instance, it's pointless to keep copy-from-other-stores running if there are no other stores, or download-using-manifests if there are no manifests. This also speeds things up because we don't send queries to those substituters.
2013-06-07	download-from-binary-cache.pl: Respect $NIX_CONNECT_TIMEOUT	Eelco Dolstra

2013-06-07	Replace $NIX_DEBUG_SUBST with an option ‘debug-subst’	Eelco Dolstra
	Thus passing ‘--option debug-subst 1’ allows daemon users to turn on debug info and see what the substituter is doing.
2013-06-07	download-from-binary-cache.pl: Show if we're waiting for a URL	Eelco Dolstra
	Previously, if a binary cache is hanging/unreachable/slow, download-from-binary-cache.pl would also hang without any indication to the user. Now, if fetching a URL takes more than 5 seconds, it will print a message to that effect.
2013-06-05	download-from-binary-cache.pl: Fix race condition	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes the error "DBD::SQLite::db do failed: column url is not unique".
2013-06-05	Update the default binary cache URL to cache.nixos.org	Eelco Dolstra

2013-06-04	download-from-binary-cache.pl: Treat a 403 error as a 404	Eelco Dolstra
	Amazon S3 returns HTTP status code 403 if a file doesn't exist and the user has no permission to list the contents of the bucket. So treat it as 404 (meaning it's cached in the NARExistence table).
2013-05-29	build-remote.pl: Remove meaningless signing when importing the output paths	Eelco Dolstra
	The "$UID != 0" makes no sense: if the local side has write access to the Nix store (which is always the case) then it doesn't matter if we're root - we can import unsigned paths either way.
2013-05-23	build-remote.pl: Copy all outputs in one operation	Eelco Dolstra

2013-05-23	build-remote.pl: Indicate if remote machine is refusing builds	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #120.
2013-05-15	download-from-binary-cache.pl: Get rid of an uninitialized value warning	Eelco Dolstra
	Reported by Pablo Costa.
2013-05-10	build-remote.pl: Properly close the SSH connection between attempts	Eelco Dolstra

2013-05-10	build-remote.pl: Pass /dev/null as SSH's stdin	Eelco Dolstra
	Otherwise it will set the parent's stdin to non-blocking mode, causing the subsequent read of the set of inputs/outputs to fail randomly. That's insane.
2013-05-10	build-remote.pl: Allow a machine to refuse a build	Eelco Dolstra
	Before selecting a machine, build-remote.pl will try to run the command "nix-builds-inhibited" on the machine. If this command exists and returns a 0 exit code, then the machine won't be used. It's up to the user to provide this command, but it would typically be a script that checks whether there is enough disk space and whether the load is not too high.
2013-05-09	build-remote.pl: Create one process fewer on the remote side	Eelco Dolstra

2013-05-09	build-remote.pl: Enforce timeouts locally	Eelco Dolstra
	Don't pass --timeout / --max-silent-time to the remote builder. Instead, let the local Nix process terminate the build if it exceeds a timeout. The remote builder will be killed as a side-effect. This gives better error reporting (since the timeout message from the remote side wasn't properly propagated) and handles non-Nix problems like SSH hangs.
2013-05-07	Add option ‘extra-binary-caches’	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows providing additional binary caches, useful in scripts like Hydra's build reproduction scripts, in particular because untrusted caches are ignored.
2013-05-03	nix-copy-closure: Show a proper error message if no host name is given	Eelco Dolstra

2013-05-03	Fixing the pv position regarding compression	Lluís Batlle i Rossell
	Problem noticed by niksnut.
2013-05-03	Fixing the pv reference; I didn't mean to change it	Lluís Batlle i Rossell

2013-05-03	Adding ETA support to the --show-progress in nix-copy-closure	Lluís Batlle i Rossell
	Based on https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6 from shlevy
2013-04-26	find-runtime-roots.pl: Don't hardcode /nix/store	Eelco Dolstra

2013-04-26	find-runtime-roots.pl: Search process environments for roots	Eelco Dolstra
	For instance, this prevents paths from being deleted that are in use by a "nix-build --run-env" session.
2013-04-26	find-runtime-roots.pl: Use Nix::Utils::readFile	Eelco Dolstra

2013-04-23	nix-build: Respect --timeout	Eelco Dolstra

2013-04-23	Fix --fallback with the binary cache substituter	Eelco Dolstra
	Reported by Peter Simons.
2013-04-23	Test NAR info caching	Eelco Dolstra

2013-03-08	Revert "Prevent config.h from being clobbered"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit 28bba8c44f484eae38e8a15dcec73cfa999156f6.
2013-03-07	Prevent config.h from being clobbered	Eelco Dolstra

2013-02-19	build-remote: Use the --quiet flag	Eelco Dolstra
	‘--option verbosity 0’ doesn't actually do anything.
2013-01-21	build-remote.pl: Don't keep build logs on the build slave	Eelco Dolstra

2013-01-02	Urgggh	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3661100
2013-01-02	Reinstate the http://nixos.org/binary-cache default for the binary-caches ↵	Eelco Dolstra
	setting
2012-12-21	download-from-binary-cache: Use the channels of the calling user rather than ↵	Eelco Dolstra
	root This should make live easier for single-user (non-daemon) installations. Note that when the daemon is used, the "calling user" is root so we're not using any untrusted caches.
2012-12-06	Set a long SQLite timeout in the binary cache substituter	Eelco Dolstra

2012-12-05	Support xz compression of nixexprs.tar in channels	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-26	Undo accidental debug change	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-26	Make "nix-build -A <derivation>.<output>" do the right thing	Eelco Dolstra
	For example, given a derivation with outputs "out", "man" and "bin": $ nix-build -A pkg produces ./result pointing to the "out" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.man produces ./result-man pointing to the "man" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.all produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin; $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2 produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.
2012-11-23	nix-copy-closure: Add flag ‘--use-substitutes’	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-09	Use a shorter Nixpkgs channel URL	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-06	download-from-binary-cache: Try next cache if downloading a NAR fails	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-06	Process binary caches in order of priority	Eelco Dolstra
	Binary caches can now specify a priority in their nix-cache-info file. The binary cache substituter checks caches in order of priority. This is to ensure that fast, static caches like nixos.org/binary-cache are processed before slow, dynamic caches like hydra.nixos.org.
2012-11-06	nix-push: Handle pushing a symlink	Eelco Dolstra

2012-11-06	Add an option ‘use-binary-caches’	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows disabling the use of binary caches, e.g. $ nix-build ... --option use-binary-caches false Note that $ nix-build ... --option binary-caches '' does not disable all binary caches, since the caches defined by channels will still be used.
