2003-07-14 | * After building, scan for actual file system references as | Eelco Dolstra | |
opposed to declared references. This prunes the reference graph, thus allowing better garbage collection and more efficient derivate distribution. | |||
2003-07-13 | * Don't check for staleness by default. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-13 | * Pass $(prefix) and other variables through -D..., not | Eelco Dolstra | |
through config.h, to prevent silly Autoconf problems. | |||
2003-07-13 | * Generate the scripts so that we can substitute the prefix | Eelco Dolstra | |
etc. correctly. * Fixed nix-switch. | |||
2003-07-11 | * Fix a bug that caused Fix not to be deterministic (due to addToStore | Eelco Dolstra | |
returning different paths if the hash of the path to be added was already available in the store under a different name). | |||
2003-07-11 | * Fix handling of pipes (read(2) may not return the required | Eelco Dolstra | |
number of bytes in one call). | |||
2003-07-10 | * A command to register successor fstate expressions. | Eelco Dolstra | |
Unifying substitutes and successors isn't very feasible for now, since substitutes are only used when no path with a certain is known. Therefore, a normal form of some expression stored as a substitute would not be used unless the expression itself was missing. | |||
2003-07-10 | * The policy-free derivate sharing now *almost* works. :-) For any | Eelco Dolstra | |
hash for which no local expansion is available, Nix can execute a `substitute' which should produce a path with such a hash. This is policy-free since Nix does not in any way specify how the substitute should work, i.e., it's an arbitrary (unnormalised) fstate expression. For example, `nix-pull' registers substitutes that fetch Nix archives from the network (through `wget') and unpack them, but any other method is possible as well. This is an improvement over the old Nix sharing scheme, which had a policy (fetching through `wget') built in. The sharing scheme doesn't work completely yet because successors from fstate rewriting have to be registered on the receiving side. Probably the whole successor stuff can be folded up into the substitute mechanism; this would be a nice simplification. | |||
2003-07-10 | * Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create Nix | Eelco Dolstra | |
archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar). * queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying the target path (which may be empty). * Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix. TODO: bootstrap Nix and install Nix as a Fix package. | |||
2003-07-10 | * Actually go through the search directories when looking for files. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-09 | * Outline of the new scheme for derivate distribution. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-09 | * When computing the set of paths referenced by an expression, also | Eelco Dolstra | |
include the paths of the subterms. | |||
2003-07-08 | * Canonicalise paths so that Fix produces identical Nix | Eelco Dolstra | |
expressions for identical inputs. | |||
2003-07-08 | * A path canonicaliser that doesn't depend on the existence of paths | Eelco Dolstra | |
(i.e., it doesn't use realpath(3), which is broken in any case). Therefore it doesn't resolve symlinks. | |||
2003-07-08 | * The output of a Derive() node is not a referenced path. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-08 | * A command to query the paths referenced by an fstate expression. | Eelco Dolstra | |
* Use a temporary directory for build actions. | |||
2003-07-08 | * Get `--dump' and `--delete' to work again. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-08 | * Renamed `id' -> `name' to remove the implication of uniqueness. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-08 | * deletePath() now removes the path from the hash2paths mapping. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-08 | * BaseName() primitive for the generation of more sensible names | Eelco Dolstra | |
(especially in fetchurl.fix). | |||
2003-07-08 | * Get rid of the `netsources' database. | Eelco Dolstra | |
* Rename the `refs' database to `hash2paths'. | |||
2003-07-07 | * `--realise' -> `--install'. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-07 | * Make dbRefs a mapping from Hash to [Path]. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2003-07-07 | * Fixed `make check' as well. | Eelco Dolstra | |

2003-07-06 | * Got Fix working again. | Eelco Dolstra | |
