2020-04-07Backport libfetchers from the flakes branchEelco Dolstra
This provides a pluggable mechanism for defining new fetchers. It adds a builtin function 'fetchTree' that generalizes existing fetchers like 'fetchGit', 'fetchMercurial' and 'fetchTarball'. 'fetchTree' takes a set of attributes, e.g. fetchTree { type = "git"; url = "https://example.org/repo.git"; ref = "some-branch"; rev = "abcdef..."; } The existing fetchers are just wrappers around this. Note that the input attributes to fetchTree are the same as flake input specifications and flake lock file entries. All fetchers share a common cache stored in ~/.cache/nix/fetcher-cache-v1.sqlite. This replaces the ad hoc caching mechanisms in fetchGit and download.cc (e.g. ~/.cache/nix/{tarballs,git-revs*}). This also adds support for Git worktrees (c169ea59049f861aaba429f48b828d0820b74d1d).
