2006-09-14	* Wow, that bug has been there since r764.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-14	* nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /	Eelco Dolstra
	--delete-generations: lock the profile to prevent (extremely unlikely) race conditions.
2006-09-14	* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector.	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix-env failed to call addPermRoot(), which is necessary to safely add a new root. So if nix-env started after and finished before the garbage collector, the user environment (plus all other new stuff) it built might be garbage collected, leading to a dangling symlink chain in ~/.nix-profile... * Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big garbage collector lock..."). * Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.
2006-09-11	* Support `++'.	Eelco Dolstra
	* More follow restrictions on layout.
2006-09-08	* Remove debug message.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-05	* Missing #include.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-05	* Sone missing #includes.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Move setuid stuff to libutil.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Install libexpr header files.
2006-09-04	* Install header files in /nix/include/nix.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Remove unnecessary inclusions of aterm2.h.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Don't need extern "C".	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Compile the lexer as C++ code. Remove all the redundant C/C++	Eelco Dolstra
	marshalling code.
2006-09-04	* Use a proper namespace.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2006-09-04	* Store the Nix libraries in ${libdir}/nix instead of ${libdir}.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-01	* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the store	Eelco Dolstra
	and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01	* Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (Too	Eelco Dolstra
	bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-08-31	* Doh! Doh! Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-31	* Better error checking.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-30	* Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-30	* Uninitialised variable.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-29	* Support singleton values and nested lists again in `args', but print	Eelco Dolstra
	a warning.
2006-08-29	* Fix the ~ operator.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-28	* In toString, deal with nested lists properly (i.e., flatten them).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-28	* Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to all	Eelco Dolstra
	derivation attributes to flatten them into strings. This is possible since string can nowadays be wrapped in contexts that describe the derivations/sources referenced by the evaluation of the string.
2006-08-26	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-25	* Remove those storePath attribute sets, we don't need 'em.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-24	* Escape newlines in XML attributes to prevent them from being	Eelco Dolstra
	normalised away.
2006-08-24	* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression to	Eelco Dolstra
	an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-24	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-24	* Strict evaluation and XML printing of lists.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-24	* Refactoring: move strictEval to libexpr.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-23	* Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:	Eelco Dolstra
	$ nix-env -qa --system-filter \* --arg system '"powerpc-darwin"' to override the system from the default value (__currentSystem in all-packages.nix).
2006-08-23	* Pass the autoArgs to findAlongAttrPath so that "nix-instantiate	Eelco Dolstra
	foo.nix -A attr --arg name value" will work if (name, value) is needed in the evaluation leading up to "attr".
2006-08-23	* Quotes.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-23	* New primop: abort "error message".	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-23	* A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containing	Eelco Dolstra
	all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
2006-08-17	* Print attributes in sorted order, rather than the arbitrary order	Eelco Dolstra
	produced by ATermMap. Necessary for testing. * `--strict' should also work on stdin.
2006-08-16	* More XML output. `--strict' to strictly evaluate attribute sets and	Eelco Dolstra
	so on. * Removed `--print-args', it's subsumed by `--eval-only --xml'.
2006-08-16	* `nix-instantiate --{eval\|parse}-only --xml': print an XML	Eelco Dolstra
	representation instead of an ATerm. * Indent XML output.
2006-08-16	* Handle carriage returns. Fixes NIX-53.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-15	On cygwin, disable the check that the output is not group or world	Martin Bravenboer
	writable. File permissions on Cygwin are rather complex, and in this case this check introduced a problem with build jobs invoke from outside of Cygwin (MSYS). It seemed almost impossible to fix the permissions of the directory, so for now this safety check is disabled on Cygwin.
2006-08-14	* Put the value in an attribute.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-11	* `nix-store --gc --print-dead': print the total size of the store	Eelco Dolstra
	objects that would be freed.
2006-08-11	* Don't assume that paths returned by the runtime root finder are	Eelco Dolstra
	valid.
2006-08-10	* New configuration setting `build-max-jobs' which sets the default	Eelco Dolstra
	for the `-j' flag (i.e., the maximum number of jobs to execute in parallel). Useful on multi-processor machines.
2006-08-09	* Fix the help message wrt --attr.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-09	* Print a warning that the subpath operator (~) is deprecated.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-07	* Workaround for a bug (?) in GCC 2.95.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-04	* Fix a few warnings.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-04	* Weird issue on Cygwin with the include file order.	Eelco Dolstra
