2014-08-20	Use proper quotes everywhere	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Refactor option handling	Eelco Dolstra

2014-05-26	Make the Nix search path declarative	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix search path lookups like <nixpkgs> are now desugared to ‘findFile nixPath <nixpkgs>’, where ‘findFile’ is a new primop. Thus you can override the search path simply by saying let nixPath = [ { prefix = "nixpkgs"; path = "/my-nixpkgs"; } ]; in ... <nixpkgs> ... In conjunction with ‘scopedImport’ (commit c273c15cb13bb86420dda1e5341a4e19517532b5), the Nix search path can be propagated across imports, e.g. let overrides = { nixPath = [ ... ] ++ builtins.nixPath; import = fn: scopedImport overrides fn; scopedImport = attrs: fn: scopedImport (overrides // attrs) fn; builtins = builtins // overrides; }; in scopedImport overrides ./nixos
2014-05-26	Ensure that -I flags get included in nixPath	Eelco Dolstra
	Also fixes #261.
2014-02-26	Warn about missing -I paths	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #121. Note that we don't warn about missing $NIX_PATH entries because it's intended that some may be missing (cf. the default $NIX_PATH on NixOS, which includes paths like /etc/nixos/nixpkgs for backward compatibility).
2012-02-09	Fix error message	Eelco Dolstra
	This fixes the error message error: file `' was not found in the Nix search path (add it using $NIX_PATH or -I)
2011-12-01	* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-build	Eelco Dolstra
	and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-08-06	* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle	Eelco Dolstra
	brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown.
2011-08-06	* Refactoring: move parseExprFromFile() and parseExprFromString() into	Eelco Dolstra
	the EvalState class.
2010-10-24	* Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST. * Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.
2010-10-22	* Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores	Eelco Dolstra
	a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
2010-05-18	* The << operator on values should be const.	Eelco Dolstra

2010-05-07	* Keep track of the source positions of attributes.	Eelco Dolstra

2010-04-13	* Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute names	Eelco Dolstra
	efficiently. The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently using a pointer equality test.
2010-04-12	* Don't use ATerms for the abstract syntax trees anymore. Not	Eelco Dolstra
	finished yet.
2010-04-07	* Update autoCallFunction() and findAlongAttrPath().	Eelco Dolstra

2007-01-14	* Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75)	Eelco Dolstra
