Eelco Dolstra 229252941a * Some GC documentation. 2005-04-05 11:30:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra eb233e728f * `--min-age' flag in nix-store and nix-collect-garbage to only delete 
unreachable paths that haven't been used for N hours.  For instance,
  `nix-collect-garbage --min-age 168' only deletes paths that haven't
  been accessed in the last week.

  This is useful for instance in the build farm where many derivations
  can be shared between consecutive builds, and we wouldn't want a
  garbage collect to throw them all away.  We could of course register
  them as roots, but then we'd to unregister them at some point, which
  would be a pain to manage.  The `--min-age' flag gives us a sort of
  MRU caching scheme.

  BUG: this really shouldn't be in gc.cc since that violates
  mechanism/policy separation.

Eelco Dolstra fdec72c6cc * `nix-collect-garbage' now actually performs a garbage collection, it 
doesn't just print the set of paths that should be deleted.  So
  there is no more need to pipe the result into `nix-store --delete'
  (which doesn't even exist anymore).

Eelco Dolstra 92e832348d * Lots of manual stuff. Reference pages for most Nix commands. 
* nix-pull now requires the full url to the manifest, i.e.,
  `/MANIFEST/' is no longer automatically appended.
* nix-prefetch-url works again.
