9488ae7357* `show-duplication.pl', a small utility that shows the amount of package duplication present in (e.g.) a profile. It shows the number of instances of each package in a closure, along with the size in bytes of each instance as well as the "waste" (the difference between the sum of the sizes of all instances and the average size).

5c38c863bd* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector. 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...

2e210b2387* Convenience option `nix-collect-garbage -d' (--delete-old): removes old generations of *all* profiles in /nix/var/nix/profiles, then runs the garbage collector. Quick way to get rid of all old stuff. Of course, one cannot roll back to earlier points in time after this.

2006-08-24 15:02:39 +0000
215ec2ddc6* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression to an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.

4a053bfdfd* A new primop builtins', which returns an attribute set containing 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 ...'.

3e5b68068bOn cygwin, disable the check that the output is not group or world 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.
