2020-02-01	Remove superfluous TreeInfo::rev field	Eelco Dolstra

2020-02-01	Factor out TreeInfo	Eelco Dolstra

2020-01-21	Convert fetchMercurial to a input type	Eelco Dolstra
	This enables Mercurial flakes. It also fixes a bug in pure mode where you could use a branch/tag name rather than a revision.
2020-01-21	Pluggable fetchers	Eelco Dolstra
	Flakes are now fetched using an extensible mechanism. Also lots of other flake cleanups.
2019-12-11	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-12-10	Make the Store API more type-safe	Eelco Dolstra
	Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like <store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix. Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop() function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics: after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types. Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern (e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).
2019-12-04	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-11-26	Drop remaining uses of external "tar"	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, fetchGit now runs in O(1) memory since we pipe the output of 'git archive' directly into unpackTarball() (rather than first reading it all into memory).
2019-11-04	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-10-31	Minor updates to inline comments	Benjamin Hipple
	Add missing docstring on InstallableCommand. Also, some of these were wrapped when they're right next to a line longer than the unwrapped line, so we can just unwrap them to save vertical space.
2019-10-30	Replace git show with git log	Janne Heß
	git show seems to print the entire tag message when being called on a tag instead of a commit. git log instead always prints the correct timestamp in my tests. The error nix prints is: `error: stoull`.
2019-10-21	exportGitHub(): Don't rely on the ETag from GitHub	Eelco Dolstra
	We relied on it being the Git revision, but that stopped being the case.
2019-10-16	Improve GitHub caching	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, when building a flake lock file, inputs like 'nixpkgs' are now downloaded only once. Previously, it would fetch https://api.github.com/repos/<owner>/<repo>/tarball/<ref> and then later https://api.github.com/repos/<owner>/<repo>/tarball/<rev>, even though they produce the same result. Git and GitHub now also share a cache that maps revs to a store path and other info.
2019-10-07	fetchGit: Support Git trees without any commits	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes $ nix build fatal: bad revision 'HEAD' error: program 'git' failed with exit code 128 on a new flake. It is now detected as a dirty tree with revCount = 0.
2019-09-22	Don't catch exceptions by value	Eelco Dolstra
	(cherry picked from commit 893be6f5e36abb58bbaa9c49055a5218114dd514)
2019-09-22	Don't catch exceptions by value	Eelco Dolstra

2019-09-20	Add flags to disallow dirty Git trees and to turn off warnings	Eelco Dolstra

2019-09-05	Use git+ prefix in flake URI schemes	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #3045.
2019-08-30	Turn flake inputs into an attrset	Eelco Dolstra
	Instead of a list, inputs are now an attrset like inputs = { nixpkgs.uri = github:NixOS/nixpkgs; }; If 'uri' is omitted, than the flake is a lookup in the flake registry, e.g. inputs = { nixpkgs = {}; }; but in that case, you can also just omit the input altogether and specify it as an argument to the 'outputs' function, as in outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: ... This also gets rid of 'nonFlakeInputs', which are now just a special kind of input that have a 'flake = false' attribute, e.g. inputs = { someRepo = { uri = github:example/repo; flake = false; }; };
2019-07-12	fetchGit: Warn about dirty trees	Eelco Dolstra

2019-07-06	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-07-02	Merge pull request #2582 from LnL7/fetchgit-refs	Eelco Dolstra
	fetchGit: allow fetching explicit refs
2019-06-25	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-24	Fix 32-bit overflow with --no-net	Eelco Dolstra
	--no-net causes tarballTtl to be set to the largest 32-bit integer, which causes comparison like 'time + tarballTtl < other_time' to fail on 32-bit systems. So cast them to 64-bit first. https://hydra.nixos.org/build/95076624 (cherry picked from commit 29ccb2e9697ee2184012dd13854e487928ae4441)
2019-06-24	CachedDownloadResult: Include store path	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, make fetchGit and fetchMercurial update allowedPaths properly. (Maybe the evaluator, rather than the caller of the evaluator, should apply toRealPath(), but that's a bigger change.) (cherry picked from commit 5c34d665386f4053d666b0899ecca0639e500fbd)
2019-06-24	Fix abort in fromTOML	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #2969.
2019-06-21	Fix 32-bit overflow with --no-net	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-05	Move flake-related stuff to src/libexpr/flake	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Shorter syntax for referencing flake outputs	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #2819.
2019-06-04	Eliminate duplicate fetching of the top-level flake	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Add comments	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Make non-flake inputs lazy	Eelco Dolstra
	Also add a proper test for non-flake inputs.
2019-06-04	Check hash	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Rename dep -> input	Eelco Dolstra
	Also use nlohmann::json range-based for.
2019-06-04	Move LockFile and related types to a separate file	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Fix GC closure generation	Eelco Dolstra

2019-06-04	Make flake input fetching lazy	Eelco Dolstra
	As long as the flake input is locked, it is now only fetched when it is evaluated (e.g. "nixpkgs" is fetched when "inputs.nixpkgs.<something>" is evaluated). This required adding an "id" attribute to the members of "inputs" in lockfiles, e.g. "inputs": { "nixpkgs/release-19.03": { "id": "nixpkgs", "inputs": {}, "narHash": "sha256-eYtxncIMFVmOHaHBtTdPGcs/AnJqKqA6tHCm0UmPYQU=", "nonFlakeInputs": {}, "uri": "github:edolstra/nixpkgs/e9d5882bb861dc48f8d46960e7c820efdbe8f9c1" } } because the flake ID needs to be known beforehand to construct the "inputs" attrset. Fixes #2913.
2019-06-03	Fix clang compilation error	Eelco Dolstra
	https://hydra.nixos.org/build/94332344 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46114214/lambda-implicit-capture-fails-with-variable-declared-from-structured-binding
2019-06-03	Made epochs more fine-grained	Nick Van den Broeck
	Fixes #2894
2019-05-31	Automatically determine subdir for path flakes	Eelco Dolstra
	This means that in a flake in a subdirectory of a Git repo, you can now do $ nix build rather than the inconvenient $ nix build ../..?dir=foo/bar
2019-05-31	Allow bare flakerefs as installables	Eelco Dolstra
	So now $ nix build blender-bin works and builds the default package from that flake. You don't need to add a colon at the end anymore.
2019-05-31	Fix reading the lockfile of a flake in a subdirectory	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-31	Add operator << for LockFile	Eelco Dolstra
	Useful for debugging.
2019-05-31	Support 'dir' and other parameters in path flakerefs	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-31	Rename requires -> inputs, provides -> outputs	Eelco Dolstra
	Issue #2828.
2019-05-29	Remove makeFlakeValue()	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-29	Put flake-related stuff in its own namespace	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-29	Make unsupported flake attributes a fatal error	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-29	Get last commit time of github flakes	Eelco Dolstra

2019-05-29	Add date of last commit to SourceInfo	Eelco Dolstra
	This is primarily useful for version string generation, where we need a monotonically increasing number. The revcount is the preferred thing to use, but isn't available for GitHub flakes (since it requires fetching the entire history). The last commit timestamp OTOH can be extracted from GitHub tarballs.
