2017-01-19	Kill builds when we get EOF on the log FD	Eelco Dolstra
	This closes a long-time bug that allowed builds to hang Nix indefinitely (regardless of timeouts) simply by doing exec > /dev/null 2>&1; while true; do true; done Now, on EOF, we just send SIGKILL to the child to make sure it's really gone.
2017-01-17	Handle SIGINT etc. via a sigwait() signal handler thread	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows other threads to install callbacks that run in a regular, non-signal context. In particular, we can use this to signal the downloader thread to quit. Closes #1183.
2016-11-26	Revert "Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There really is no need for such a massive change...
2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux

2016-10-12	Shut up some warnings	Eelco Dolstra

2016-09-21	printMsg(lvlError, ...) -> printError(...) etc.	Eelco Dolstra

2016-08-10	Remove $NIX_DB_DIR	Eelco Dolstra
	This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.
2016-07-11	Modernize AutoCloseFD	Shea Levy

2016-04-25	Show the log tail when a build fails	Eelco Dolstra
	If --no-build-output is given (which will become the default for the "nix" command at least), show the last 10 lines of the build output if the build fails.
2016-04-25	Remove --print-build-trace	Eelco Dolstra
	This was added to support Hydra, but Hydra no longer uses it.
2016-04-25	Improved logging abstraction	Eelco Dolstra
	This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the "pretty" log type.
2016-03-29	Improve SIGINT handling in multi-threaded programs	Eelco Dolstra
	The flag remembering whether an Interrupted exception was thrown is now thread-local. Thus, all threads will (eventually) throw Interrupted. Previously, one thread would throw Interrupted, and then the other threads wouldn't see that they were supposed to quit.
2016-03-29	Re-enable sync_with_stdio	Eelco Dolstra
	Otherwise writing to std::cerr is not thread-safe (in particular, lines will be randomly duplicated).
2016-02-25	Merge branch 'master' into new-cli	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-23	Pool<T>: Allow a maximum pool size	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-22	Doh	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-22	Make OpenSSL usage thread-safe	Eelco Dolstra
	OpenSSL can randomly segfault unless we register a callback function to do locking. https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/crypto/threads.html
2016-02-12	Merge pull request #762 from ctheune/ctheune-floats	Eelco Dolstra
	Implement floats

2016-02-09	New command line parsing infrastructure	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-04	StoreAPI -> Store	Eelco Dolstra
	Calling a class an API is a bit redundant...
2016-02-04	Eliminate the "store" global variable	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation. Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a "T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via std::bind.)
2016-01-28	printMissing(): Propagate store argument	Eelco Dolstra

2016-01-06	@eelco's feedback: downgrade to regular float for size, remove unused function.	Christian Theune

2016-01-05	First hit at providing support for floats in the language.	Christian Theune

2015-09-18	Shut up clang warnings	Eelco Dolstra

2015-07-23	--version: Print some config info	Eelco Dolstra
	Such as whether Nix is built with signed binary cache support, and the location of the configuration file.
2015-07-20	Support systemd log severity prefixes	Eelco Dolstra
	This is mostly useful for hydra-queue-runner.
2015-05-21	nix-collect-garbage: Call collectGarbage() internally	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-12	Silence some warnings on GCC 4.9	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-12	Don't abort if we get a signal while waiting for the pager	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-10	Provide default pagers	Eelco Dolstra
	Borrowed from systemd.
2014-12-10	Revert "Use posix_spawn to run the pager"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit d34d2b2bbf784c0bb420a50905af25e02c6e4989.
2014-12-09	Explicitly include required C headers	Marko Durkovic

2014-12-05	Define ‘environ’	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/17690555
2014-12-05	Use posix_spawn to run the pager	Eelco Dolstra
	In low memory environments, "nix-env -qa" failed because the fork to run the pager hit the kernel's overcommit limits. Using posix_spawn gets around this. (Actually, you have to use posix_spawn with the undocumented POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK flag, otherwise it just uses fork/exec...)
2014-10-31	Shut up a clang warning	Eelco Dolstra

2014-10-14	Remove redundant space in usage errors	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Handle compound single dash options properly	Eelco Dolstra
	So now nix-instantiate --eval -E '{x}: x' --argstr x -xyzzy correctly prints "-xyzzy", rather than giving an error. Issue NixOS/hydra#176.
