2015-07-23	Merge branch 'attr-set-hh' of https://github.com/nbp/nix	Eelco Dolstra
	Conflicts: src/libexpr/eval.cc
2015-07-23	Optimize small lists	Eelco Dolstra
	The value pointers of lists with 1 or 2 elements are now stored in the list value itself. In particular, this makes the "concatMap (x: if cond then [(f x)] else [])" idiom cheaper.
2015-07-23	Add primops all and any	Eelco Dolstra
	These are used thousands of times during NixOS evaluation, so it's useful to speed them up.
2015-07-23	Importing derivations: Add name attribute to make a valid drv	Shea Levy

2015-07-23	Allow derivations-as-srcs in the context of builtins.toFile files	Shea Levy

2015-07-23	Add foldl' primop	Eelco Dolstra

2015-07-20	Make <nix/fetchurl.nix> a builtin builder	Eelco Dolstra
	This ensures that 1) the derivation doesn't change when Nix changes; 2) the derivation closure doesn't contain Nix and its dependencies; 3) we don't have to rely on ugly chroot hacks.
2015-07-17	OCD: foreach -> C++11 ranged for	Eelco Dolstra

2015-07-17	Make printValue() interruptible	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #572.
2015-07-14	Move attribute set data structures into their own header file.	Nicolas B. Pierron
	This modification moves Attr and Bindings structures into their own header file which is dedicated to the attribute set representation. The goal of to isolate pieces of code which are related to the attribute set representation. Thus future modifications of the attribute set representation will only have to modify these files, and not every other file across the evaluator.
2015-07-03	Fix the parsing of "$"'s in strings.	Guillaume Maudoux

2015-07-03	Fix the hack that resets the scanner state.	Guillaume Maudoux

2015-06-17	Support URLs in $NIX_PATH	Eelco Dolstra
	This didn't work (despite claims in the manual), because the colon in "http://" was parsed as a element separator. So handle "://" specially.
2015-06-01	Add tarball tests	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-01	Document tarball downloading	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-01	Fix fetchurl/fetchTarball	Eelco Dolstra

2015-06-01	readFile: Check against nul bytes	Eelco Dolstra

2015-05-22	Fix import-from-derivation in restricted eval mode	Eelco Dolstra
	This relaxes restricted mode to allow access to anything in the store. In the future, it would be better to allow access to only paths that have been constructed in the current evaluation (so a hard-coded /nix/store/blabla in a Nix expression would still be rejected). However, note that reading /nix/store itself is still rejected, so you can't use this so get access to things you don't know about.
2015-05-06	nix-env/nix-instantiate/nix-build: Support URIs	Eelco Dolstra
	For instance, you can install Firefox from a specific Nixpkgs revision like this: $ nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz -iA firefox Or build a package from the latest nixpkgs-unstable channel: $ nix-build https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz -A hello
2015-05-05	Allow URLs in the Nix search path	Eelco Dolstra
	E.g. to install "hello" from the latest Nixpkgs: $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A hello -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz Or to install a specific version of NixOS: $ nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz
2015-05-05	Make downloads interruptable	Eelco Dolstra

2015-04-16	Fix using restricted mode with chroots	Eelco Dolstra

2015-04-09	Use cached result if there is a network error	Eelco Dolstra

2015-04-09	Move curl stuff into a separate file	Eelco Dolstra

2015-04-09	Implement a TTL on cached fetchurl/fetchTarball results	Eelco Dolstra
	This is because we don't want to do HTTP requests on every evaluation, even though we can prevent a full redownload via the cached ETag. The default is one hour.
2015-04-09	Implement caching of fetchurl/fetchTarball results	Eelco Dolstra
	ETags are used to prevent redownloading unchanged files.
2015-03-25	Add fetchTarball builtin	Eelco Dolstra
	This function downloads and unpacks the given URL at evaluation time. This is primarily intended to make it easier to deal with Nix expressions that have external dependencies. For instance, to fetch Nixpkgs 14.12: with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-14.12.tar.gz) {}; Or to fetch a specific revision: with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/2766a4b44ee6eafae03a042801270c7f6b8ed32a.tar.gz) {}; This patch also adds a ‘fetchurl’ builtin that downloads but doesn't unpack its argument. Not sure if it's useful though.
2015-03-25	addToStore(): Take explicit name argument	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-24	Don't rely on __noChroot for corepkgs	Eelco Dolstra
	This doesn't work anymore if the "strict" chroot mode is enabled. Instead, add Nix's store path as a dependency. This ensures that its closure is present in the chroot.
2015-03-19	Disable scanning for interior pointers	Eelco Dolstra
	This may remove the "Repeated allocation of very large block" warnings.
2015-03-19	Fix Boehm API violation	Eelco Dolstra
	We were calling GC_INIT() after doing an allocation (in the baseEnv construction), which is not allowed.
2015-03-19	Check return values from malloc/strdup	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-18	Print some Boehm GC stats	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-18	valueSize(): Take into account list/bindings/env size	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-06	Fix typos: s/the the/the/	Daniel Hahler

2015-03-06	forceValueDeep: Add to error prefix	Eelco Dolstra

2015-03-06	Improve error message	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-23	Add restricted evaluation mode	Eelco Dolstra
	If ‘--option restrict-eval true’ is given, the evaluator will throw an exception if an attempt is made to access any file outside of the Nix search path. This is primarily intended for Hydra, where we don't want people doing ‘builtins.readFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa’ or stuff like that.
2015-02-19	Merge branch 'tilde-paths' of https://github.com/shlevy/nix	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-19	tilde paths: The rest of the string has to start with a slash anyway	Shea Levy

2015-02-19	tilde paths: construct the entire path at parse time	Shea Levy

2015-02-19	tilde paths: get HOME at parse time	Shea Levy

2015-02-19	Remove obsolete reference to ~ operator	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-19	ExprConcatStrings: canonicalize concatenated paths	Shea Levy

2015-02-19	Allow the leading component of a path to be a ~	Shea Levy

2015-02-05	Remove tab	Eelco Dolstra

2015-01-29	Merge remote-tracking branch 'shlevy/baseNameOf-no-copy'	Shea Levy
	baseNameOf: Don't copy paths to the store first
2015-01-15	Fix assertion failure in nix-env	Eelco Dolstra
	$ nix-env -f ~/Dev/nixops/ -iA foo nix-env: src/libexpr/eval.hh:57: void nix::Bindings::push_back(const nix::Attr&): Assertion `size_ < capacity' failed. Aborted
2015-01-09	Fix builtins.readDir on XFS	Eelco Dolstra
	The DT_UNKNOWN fallback code was getting the type of the wrong path, causing readDir to report "directory" as the type of every file. Reported by deepfire on IRC.
2015-01-07	Show position info for failing <...> lookups	Eelco Dolstra
