reproducibility: hide non-reproducible settings from manual
|
|
Closes #1584.
|
|
|
|
Because the manual is generated from default values which are themselves
generated from various sources (cpuid, bios settings (kvm), number of
cores). This commit hides non-reproducible settings from the manual
output.

Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole
codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features.
This means that
- Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed
(making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features)
- It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t
experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the
enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages
of it.

Some people want to avoid using registries at all on their system; Instead
of having to add --no-registries to every command, this commit allows to
set use-registries = false in the config. --no-registries is still allowed
everywhere it was allowed previously, but is now deprecated.

They are equivalent according to
<https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#hard-line-breaks>,
and the trailing spaces tend to be a pain (because the make git
complain, editors tend to want to remove them − the `.editorconfig`
actually specifies that − etc..).

Mostly removing useless comments and adding spaces before `&`

Rather throw a proper exception, and catch&log it on the client side

We know the flag will be ignored but the user wants it to take effect.

Add x86_64-darwin and aarch64 to "extra-platforms" automatically when Rosetta2 is detected
|
|
Since 0744f7f, it is now useful to have cache.nixos.org in substituers
even if /nix/store is not the Nix Store Dir. This can always be
overridden via configuration, though.

macOS systems with ARM64 can utilize a translation layer at
/Library/Apple/usr/libexec/oah to run x86_64 binaries. This change
makes Nix recognize that and it to "extra-platforms". Note that there
are two cases here since Nix could be built for either x86_64 or
aarch64. In either case, we can switch to the other architecture.
Unfortunately there is not a good way to prevent aarch64 binaries from
being run in x86_64 contexts or vice versa - programs can always
execute programs for the other architecture.

This removes the extra-substituters and extra-sandbox-paths settings
and instead makes every array setting extensible by setting
"extra-<name> = <value>" in the configuration file or passing
"--<name> <value>" on the command line.

This change provides support for using access tokens with other
instances of GitHub and GitLab beyond just github.com and
gitlab.com (especially company-specific or foundation-specific
instances).
This change also provides the ability to specify the type of access
token being used, where different types may have different handling,
based on the forge type.

Add a nix.conf option for allowing a symlinked store

This reduces compilation time by 207s.

`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.
|
|
Instead make a separate header with the template implementation of
`BaseSetting<T>::toJSONObj` that can be included where needed
|
|
|
|
This means we don't have two (divergent) sets of option descriptions
anymore.

Some users have their own hashed-mirrors setup, that is used to mirror
things in addition to what’s available on tarballs.nixos.org. Although
this should be feasable to do with a Binary Cache, it’s not always
easy, since you have to remember what "name" each of the tarballs has.
Continuing to support hashed-mirrors is cheap, so it’s best to leave
support in Nix. Note that NIX_HASHED_MIRRORS is also supported in
Nixpkgs through fetchurl.nix.
Note that this excludes tarballs.nixos.org from the default, as in
\#3689. All of these are available on cache.nixos.org.

This reduces memory consumption of
nix-instantiate \
-E 'with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" { src = ./blender; } "echo foo"' \
--option nar-buffer-size 10000
(where ./blender is a 1.1 GiB tree) from 1716 to 36 MiB, while still
ensuring that we don't do any write I/O for small source paths (up to
'nar-buffer-size' bytes). The downside is that large paths are now
always written to a temporary location in the store, even if they
produce an already valid store path. Thus, adding large paths might be
slower and run out of disk space. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Of course, you can always
restore the old behaviour by setting 'nar-buffer-size' to a very high
value.
