This ensures any started processes can't write to /nix/store (except
during builds). This partially reverts 01d07b1e, which happened because
of #2646.
The problem was only happening after nix downloads anything, causing
me to suspect the download thread. The problem turns out to be:
"A process can't join a new mount namespace if it is sharing
filesystem-related attributes with another process", in this case this
process is the curl thread.
Ideally, we might kill it before spawning the shell process, but it's
inside a static variable in the getFileTransfer() function. So
instead, stop it from sharing FS state using unshare(). A strategy
such as the one from #5057 (single-threaded chroot helper binary) is
also very much on the table.
Fixes #4337.

When I stop a download with Ctrl-C in a `nix repl` of a flake, the REPL
refuses to do any other downloads:
nix-repl> builtins.getFlake "nix-serve"
[0.0 MiB DL] downloading 'https://api.github.com/repos/edolstra/nix-serve/tarball/e9828a9e01a14297d15ca41 error: download of 'https://api.github.com/repos/edolstra/nix-serve/tarball/e9828a9e01a14297d15ca416e5a9415d4972b0f0' was interrupted
[0.0 MiB DL]
nix-repl> builtins.getFlake "nix-serve"
error: interrupted by the user
[0.0 MiB DL]
To fix this issue, two changes were necessary:
* Reset the global `_isInterrupted` variable: only because a single
operation was aborted, it should still be possible to continue the
session.
* Recreate a `fileTransfer`-instance if the current one was shut down by
an abort.

Improve error formatting
|
|
GitHub now omits the etag, but 304 implies it matches the one we
provided. Just use that one to avoid having an etag-less resource.
Fixes #4469
|

Changes:
* The divider lines are gone. These were in practice a bit confusing,
in particular with --show-trace or --keep-going, since then there
were multiple lines, suggesting a start/end which wasn't the case.
* Instead, multi-line error messages are now indented to align with
the prefix (e.g. "error: ").
* The 'description' field is gone since we weren't really using it.
* 'hint' is renamed to 'msg' since it really wasn't a hint.
* The error is now printed *before* the location info.
* The 'name' field is no longer printed since most of the time it
wasn't very useful since it was just the name of the exception (like
EvalError). Ideally in the future this would be a unique, easily
googleable error ID (like rustc).
* "trace:" is now just "…". This assumes error contexts start with
something like "while doing X".

This was useful for an experiment with building Nix as a single
compilation unit. It's not very useful otherwise but also doesn't
hurt...
|
|
|
|
This gets rid of the inclusion of <future> in util.hh, cutting
compilation time by ~20s (CPU time).
Issue #4045.

`nix flake info` calls the github 'commits' API, which requires
authorization when the repository is private. Currently this request
fails with a 404.
This commit adds an authorization header when calling the 'commits' API.
It also changes the way that the 'tarball' API authenticates, moving the
user's token from a query parameter into the Authorization header.
The query parameter method is recently deprecated and will be disallowed
in November 2020. Using them today triggers a warning email.

Due to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3841 we don't know how print
different messages for different verbosity levels.

We have a larger problem that passsing computed strings to the first
variable argument of many exception constructors is unsafe because that
first variable argument is interpreted not as a plain string, but format
string, and if it contains '%' boost::format will abort, since there are
no arguments to the format string.
In this particular instance '%' was used as part of an escape code in a
URL, which, when the download failed, caused Nix to abort displaying the
`FileTransferError`.

Everywhere seems to use `getHTTPStatus` now.
|
|
|
|
The successful states used in these two places in the code were slightly
different. Should they be the same list?

Fixes #3618.
