Steam Deck User a86916eb72 Make warning about chroot store location more accurate
While trying to use an alternate directory for my Nix installation, I
noticed that nix's output didn't reflect the updated state
directory. This patch corrects that and now prints the warning before
attempting to create the directory (if the directory creation fails,
it wouldn't have been obvious why nix was attempting to create the
directory in the first place).

With this patch, I now get the following warning:

    warning: '/home/deck/.var/app/org.nixos.nix/var/nix' does not
    exist, so Nix will use '/home/deck/.local/share/nix/root' as a
    chroot store

This unclutters the per-command options a bit by moving out some
global options.

parseDrvName: remove doc/impl discrepancy, add test covering the gap

Adam Joseph 5e24863d5a tests/lang/eval-okay-versions.nix: add test for previous commit
This commit adds a test covering the discrepancy between parseDrvName's
implementation and documentation (the discrepancy was eliminated in the previous
commit).

Adam Joseph 7ef71cd21f src/libexpr/primops.cc: parseDrvName: make documentation follow implementation
The documentation for `parseDrvName` does not agree with the implementation when
the derivation name contains a dash which is followed by something that is
neither a letter nor a digit.  This commit corrects the documentation to agree
with the implementation.

Stel Abrego 34e3fa3a4a Fix fish shell MANPATH creation
Previously the MANPATH was set even if MANPATH was empty beforehand
which resulted in a MANPATH of only ~/.nix-profile/share/man which
omitted the default man page directory (commonly /opt/local/share/man)
from man page results.

Jörg Thalheim d9abce4ad4 libfetchers: avoid api.github.com ratelimit if no github token is set
If we don't have any github token, we won't be able to fetch private
repos, but we are also more likely to run into API limits since
we don't have a token. To mitigate this only ever use the github api
if we actually have a token.

Adam Joseph dc205c75a2 src/libexpr/primops.cc: correct definition for intersectAttrs
The current definition of `intersectAttrs` is incorrect:

> Return a set consisting of the attributes in the set e2 that also exist in the
> set e1.

Recall that (Nix manual, section 5.1):

> An attribute set is a collection of name-value-pairs (called attributes)

According to the existing description of `intersectAttrs`, the following should
evaluate to the empty set, since no key-value *pair* (i.e. attribute) exists in
both sets:

```
builtins.intersectAttrs { x=3; } {x="foo";}
```

And yet:

```
nix-repl> builtins.intersectAttrs { x=3; } {x="foo";}
{ x = "foo"; }
```

Clearly the intent here was for the *names* of the resulting attribute set to be
the intersection of the *names* of the two arguments, and for the values of the
resulting attribute set to be the values from the second argument.

This commit corrects the definition, making it match the implementation and intent.

Matthew Bauer 6e049ae607 Allow pass max-silent-time and build-poll-interval to daemon untrusted
These settings seem harmless, they control the same polling
functionality that timeout does, but with different behavior. Should
be safe for untrusted users to pass in.

John Ericson a2a8cb10ac Dodge "trusted" vs "trustworthy" by being explicit
Hopefully this is best!
2022-09-22 14:37:52 -04:00
John Ericson 752f967c0f "valid signature" -> "trustworthy signature"
I just had a colleague get confused by the previous phrase for good
reason. "valid" sounds like an *objective* criterion, e.g. and *invalid
signature* would be one that would be trusted by no one, e.g. because it
misformatted or something.

What is actually going is that there might be a signature which is
perfectly valid to *someone else*, but not to the user, because they
don't trust the corresponding public key. This is a *subjective*
criterion, because it depends on the arbitrary and personal choice of
which public keys to trust.

I therefore think "trustworthy" is a better adjective to use. Whether
something is worthy of trust is clearly subjective, and then "trust"
within that word nicely evokes `trusted-public-keys` and friends.
