2021-07-22	copyPaths: Pass store by reference	Eelco Dolstra

2021-07-22	nix-build: Copy drv closure between eval store and build store	Eelco Dolstra

2021-02-25	Use `RealisedPath`s in `copyPaths`	regnat
	That way we can copy the realisations too (in addition to the store paths themselves)
2021-02-24	Initialize plugins after handling initial command line flags	Shea Levy
	This is technically a breaking change, since attempting to set plugin files after the first non-flag argument will now throw an error. This is acceptable given the relative lack of stability in a plugin interface and the need to tie the knot somewhere once plugins can actually define new subcommands.
2021-01-26	Move command plugin interface to libnixcmd	Shea Levy

2020-10-06	Remove static variable name clashes	Eelco Dolstra
	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...
2020-03-30	Remove global -I flags	Eelco Dolstra
	(cherry picked from commit 2c692a3b144523bca68dd6de618124ba6c9bb332)
2019-12-10	Make the Store API more type-safe	Eelco Dolstra
	Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like <store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix. Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop() function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics: after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types. Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern (e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).
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.
2018-04-21	Fix library ordering in Makefiles	Andrew Dunham
	The existing ordering linked `libutil` before `libstore`, which causes link failures when building statically. This is due to `libstore` using functions from `libutil`, and the fact that symbol resolution works "forward" - i.e. if you pass `-lfoo -lbar -lbaz`, any symbols that `libbar` uses from `libbaz` will be resolved, but symbols from `libfoo` will not since it comes first in the command line. All this to say: this commit reorders the libraries which fixes the link errors.
2018-02-08	Add plugins to make Nix more extensible.	Shea Levy
	All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix supports.
2017-07-30	Replace Unicode quotes in user-facing strings by ASCII	Jörg Thalheim
	Relevant RFC: NixOS/rfcs#4 $ ag -l \| xargs sed -i -e "/\"/s/’/'/g;/\"/s/‘/'/g"
2017-07-03	Replace a few bool flags with enums	Eelco Dolstra
	Functions like copyClosure() had 3 bool arguments, which creates a severe risk of mixing up arguments. Also, implement copyClosure() using copyPaths().
2017-05-01	build-remote: Don't require signatures	Eelco Dolstra
	This restores the old behaviour.
2017-03-16	ssh:// -> ssh-ng://, legacy-ssh:// -> ssh://	Eelco Dolstra

2017-03-16	copyPaths(): Use queryValidPaths() to reduce SSH latency	Eelco Dolstra

2017-03-16	nix-copy-closure: Fix assertion failure	Eelco Dolstra
	$ ./inst/bin/nix-copy-closure --to bla $(type -p firefox) nix-copy-closure: src/libstore/store-api.cc:80: std::__cxx11::string nix::storePathToHash(const Path&): Assertion `base.size() >= storePathHashLen' failed.
2017-02-07	nix-copy-closure: Use computeFSClosure() and LegacySSHStore	Eelco Dolstra

2017-01-20	nix-copy-closure: Implement in C++.	Shea Levy
	Tests fail currently because the database is not given proper hashes in the VM
