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...)
2006-09-01	* Fix race condition in the test.	Eelco Dolstra

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

2006-08-30	* TDD: == should do a deep equality test, i.e., it should strictly	Eelco Dolstra
	evaluate its arguments.
2006-08-29	* Backwards compatibility test for ~.	Eelco Dolstra

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.
2006-08-23	* 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 ...'.
2006-08-22	* Urgh (see NIX-56).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-17	* Distribute *.exp.xml.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-17	* Test for `nix-instantiate --eval-only --xml'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-16	* Meh.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-16	* A test for NIX-53.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-24	* New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a function	Eelco Dolstra
	argument has a valid value, i.e., is in a certain domain. E.g., { foo : [true false] , bar : ["a" "b" "c"] }: ... This previously could be done using assertions, but domain checks will allow the buildfarm to automatically extract the configuration space from functions.
2006-07-24	* `touch' might not be in $PATH.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-24	* Tests for domain checks.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-24	* Refactoring to support domain checks.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-21	* Purify `make check'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-21	* Test for runtime root finding.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-20	* Doh.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-20	* Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to prevent	Eelco Dolstra
	running applications etc. from being garbage collected.
2006-07-19	* Add a precise test for hashDerivatioModulo.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-07-10	* This expression has an undefined variable which isn't detected, so	Eelco Dolstra
	evaluation fails: error: impossible: undefined variable `gcc'
2006-06-16	* Skip this test on Cygwin, too slow (and doesn't test anything ↵	Eelco Dolstra
	Cygwin-specific).
2006-05-29	* Handle $PATHs with spaces.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-05-08	* Allow function argument default values to refer to other arguments	Eelco Dolstra
	of the function. Implements NIX-45.
2006-05-02	* More tests.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-05-02	* Tests for NIX-45.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-05-01	* String interpolation. Expressions like	Eelco Dolstra
	"--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib" can now be written as "--with-freetype2-library=${freetype}/lib" An arbitrary expression can be enclosed within ${...}, not just identifiers. * Escaping in string literals: \n, \r, \t interpreted as in C, any other character following \ is interpreted as-is. * Newlines are now allowed in string literals.
2006-05-01	* Allow string concatenations involving derivations, e.g.,	Eelco Dolstra
	configureFlags = "--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib";
2006-04-25	* Unless --with-bzip2 is specified, use a copy of bzip2 in the	Eelco Dolstra
	externals directory. This is in particular useful because though most systems have bzip2/bunzip2, they don't always have libbz2, which we need for bsdiff/bspatch.
2006-03-10	* Allow `make check' to work in directories that have symlink	Eelco Dolstra
	components.
2006-03-10	* `nix-env -qa --description' shows human-readable descriptions of	Eelco Dolstra
	packages (provided that they have a `meta.description' attribute). E.g., $ ./src/nix-env/nix-env -qa --description gcc gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for sparc-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for mips-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for arm-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x
2006-03-10	* Oops.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-10	* `nix-env -q' now accepts arguments that allow specific derivations	Eelco Dolstra
	to be queried, e.g., `nix-env -qa firefox'. This does require the argument '' to be passed if one wants information about all derivations, so the old `nix-env -qa' now is `nix-env -qa ""'.
2006-03-01	* Tests for fixed-output derivations (and attribute selection, incidentally).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Tests to prevent a repeat of the parseHash32 debacle.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* More test coverage.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store -q --binding'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test `nix-store --add' and `nix-store -q --hash'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* TDD! Woohoo!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Oops!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test the nix-store --gc subflags.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Test nix-build. This also tests indirect roots.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Clear the substitutes prior to running the test.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Add a test for nix-log2xml.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-03-01	* Simplification.	Eelco Dolstra
