2017-05-02	Add an option for specifying remote builders	Eelco Dolstra
	This is useful for one-off situations where you want to specify a builder on the command line instead of having to mess with nix.machines. E.g. $ nix-build -A hello --argstr system x86_64-darwin \ --option builders 'root@macstadium1 x86_64-darwin' will perform the specified build on "macstadium1". It also removes the need for a separate nix.machines file since you can specify builders in nix.conf directly. (In fact nix.machines is yet another hack that predates the general nix.conf configuration file, IIRC.) Note: this option is supported by the daemon for trusted users. The fact that this allows trusted users to specify paths to SSH keys to which they don't normally have access is maybe a bit too much trust...
2017-05-02	Factor out machines.conf parsing	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows hydra-queue-runner to use it.
2017-05-02	build-hook: If there are no machines defined, quit permanently	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-02	build-remote: Ugly hackery to get build logs to work	Eelco Dolstra
	The build hook mechanism expects build log output to go to file descriptor 4, so do that.
2017-05-01	build-remote: Don't require signatures	Eelco Dolstra
	This restores the old behaviour.
2017-05-01	Support arbitrary store URIs in nix.machines	Eelco Dolstra
	For backwards compatibility, if the URI is just a hostname, ssh:// (i.e. LegacySSHStore) is prepended automatically. Also, all fields except the URI are now optional. For example, this is a valid nix.machines file: local?root=/tmp/nix This is useful for testing the remote build machinery since you don't have to mess around with ssh.
2017-05-01	Minor cleanup	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Implement LegacySSHStore::buildDerivation()	Eelco Dolstra
	This makes LegacySSHStore usable by build-remote and hydra-queue-runner.
2017-05-01	Chomp log output from the build hook	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD	Eelco Dolstra
	This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment variables predate nix.conf. The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote). The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now.
2017-05-01	build-remote: Don't copy the .drv closure	Eelco Dolstra
	Since build-remote uses buildDerivation() now, we don't need to copy the .drv file anymore. This greatly reduces the set of input paths copied to the remote side (e.g. from 392 to 51 store paths for GNU hello on x86_64-darwin).
2017-05-01	Pass verbosity level to build hook	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-01	Reduce severity of EMLINK warnings	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #1357.
2017-05-01	Add a dummy Store::buildPaths() method	Eelco Dolstra
	This default implementation of buildPaths() does nothing if all requested paths are already valid, and throws an "unsupported operation" error otherwise. This fixes a regression introduced by c30330df6f67c81986dfb124631bc756c8e58c0d in binary cache and legacy SSH stores.
2017-05-01	lexer: remove catch-all rules hiding real errors	Guillaume Maudoux
	With catch-all rules, we hide potential errors. It turns out that a4744254 made one cath-all useless. Flex detected that is was impossible to reach. The other is more subtle, as it can only trigger on unfinished escapes in unfinished strings, which only occurs at EOF.
2017-05-01	Fix lexer to support `$'` in multiline strings.	Guillaume Maudoux

2017-04-28	Hopefully fix the Darwin build	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/52080911
2017-04-28	Suppress warning about ssh-auth-sock	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-28	Check for libreadline	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-28	Fix brainfart	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-28	Fix hash computation when importing NARs greater than 4 GiB	Eelco Dolstra
	This caused "nix-store --import" to compute an incorrect hash on NARs that don't fit in an unsigned int. The import would succeed, but "nix-store --verify-path" or subsequent exports would detect an incorrect hash. A deeper issue is that the export/import format does not contain a hash, so we can't detect such issues early. Also, I learned that -Wall does not warn about this.
2017-04-26	Merge pull request #1358 from shlevy/store-nesting	Eelco Dolstra
	Add Store nesting to fix import-from-derivation within filterSource

2017-04-25	Cleanup in preparation of merging nix-repl repo into nix repo	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-25	StorePathCommands: Build installables	Eelco Dolstra
	So for instance "nix copy --to ... nixpkgs.hello" will build nixpkgs.hello first. It's debatable whether this is a good idea. It seems desirable for commands like "nix copy" but maybe not for commands like "nix path-info".
2017-04-25	Set default installable	Eelco Dolstra
	Thus $ nix build -f foo.nix will build foo.nix. And $ nix build will build default.nix. However, this may not be a good idea because it's kind of inconsistent, given that "nix build foo" will build the "foo" attribute from the default installation source (i.e. the synthesis of $NIX_PATH), rather than ./default.nix. So I may revert this.
2017-04-25	Interpret any installable containing a slash as a path	Eelco Dolstra
	So "nix path-info ./result" now works.
2017-04-25	Make StorePathsCommand a subclass of InstallablesCommand	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows commands like 'nix path-info', 'nix copy', 'nix verify' etc. to work on arbitrary installables. E.g. to copy geeqie to a binary cache: $ nix copy -r --to file:///tmp/binary-cache nixpkgs.geeqie Or to get the closure size of thunderbird: $ nix path-info -S nixpkgs.thunderbird
2017-04-25	Move code around	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-25	Add "nix eval" command	Eelco Dolstra
	This replaces "nix-instantiate --eval". The result is evaluated strictly since this seems more useful.
2017-04-25	Restructure installables handling in the "nix" command	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-24	Remove debug statement	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-24	Factor out --json	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-24	nix-shell -p: Use runCommandCC	Eelco Dolstra
	This restores pre-17.03 behaviour by making gcc available.
2017-04-21	add helper function to set 'interruptThrown'	David McFarland
	this fixes a linker failure on cygwin 64 due to some bad interaction between tls and shared libraries. see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64697
2017-04-20	Detect lsof	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, don't use lsof on Linux since it's not needed. Fixes #1328.
2017-04-20	Improve nix show-config --json	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, show descriptions. This could be used for manpage generation etc.

	Fixes #1339.
2017-04-19	getDerivations(): Filter out packages with bad derivation names	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, this disallows attribute names containing dots or starting with dots. Hydra already disallowed these. This affects the following packages in Nixpkgs master: 2048-in-terminal 2bwm 389-ds-base 90secondportraits lispPackages.3bmd lispPackages.hu.dwim.asdf lispPackages.hu.dwim.def Closes #1342.
