2006-03-01* Simplification.Eelco Dolstra
2006-03-01* Make it easy to run individual tests from the command line.Eelco Dolstra
2005-02-09* Propagate the deriver of a path through the substitute mechanism.Eelco Dolstra
* Removed some dead code (successor stuff) from nix-push. * Updated terminology in the tests (store expr -> drv path). * Check that the deriver is set properly in the tests.
2005-01-25* In nix-store: change `--build' back to `--realise'. Also broughtEelco Dolstra
back the query flag `--force-realise'. * Fixed some of the tests.
2004-08-19* Make sure that no build hook is set by default in the tests.Eelco Dolstra
* Don't use `seq' - some primitive, obsolete operating systems (Darwin) don't have it.
2004-05-11* True parallel builds. Nix can now run as many build jobs inEelco Dolstra
parallel as possible (similar to GNU Make's `-j' switch). This is useful on SMP systems, but it is especially useful for doing builds on multiple machines. The idea is that a large derivation is initiated on one master machine, which then distributes sub-derivations to any number of slave machines. This should not happen synchronously or in lock-step, so the master must be capable of dealing with multiple parallel build jobs. We now have the infrastructure to support this. TODO: substitutes are currently broken.
2004-05-04* 1000th revision!Eelco Dolstra
* A test to verify that locking of output paths (caused by concurrent invocations of Nix) works correctly.
