2018-10-26	Merge all nix-* binaries into nix	Eelco Dolstra
	These are all symlinks to 'nix' now, reducing the installed size by about ~1.7 MiB.
2018-09-04	Get effective user in Nix commands	Matthew Bauer
	‘geteuid’ gives us the user that the command is being run as, including in setuid modes. By using geteuid to determind id, we can avoid the ‘sudo -i’ hack when upgrading Nix. So now, upgrading Nix on macOS is as simple as: $ sudo nix-channel --update $ sudo nix-env -u $ sudo launchctl stop org.nixos.nix-daemon $ sudo launchctl start org.nixos.nix-daemon or $ sudo systemctl restart nix-daemon

2016-11-21	nix-channel: Fix --update <CHANNELS>	Eelco Dolstra
	This unbreaks "nixos-rebuild --upgrade".
2016-09-14	Enable HTTP/2 support	Eelco Dolstra
	The binary cache store can now use HTTP/2 to do lookups. This is much more efficient than HTTP/1.1 due to multiplexing: we can issue many requests in parallel over a single TCP connection. Thus it's no longer necessary to use a bunch of concurrent TCP connections (25 by default). For example, downloading 802 .narinfo files from https://cache.nixos.org/, using a single TCP connection, takes 11.8s with HTTP/1.1, but only 0.61s with HTTP/2. This did require a fairly substantial rewrite of the Downloader class to use the curl multi interface, because otherwise curl wouldn't be able to do multiplexing for us. As a bonus, we get connection reuse even with HTTP/1.1. All downloads are now handled by a single worker thread. Clients call Downloader::enqueueDownload() to tell the worker thread to start the download, getting a std::future to the result.
