Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
builtins.warn
is a simple builtin that makes evaluation time warnings with the ability to turn them into errors. It's implemented in CppNix and has no meaningful compatibility hazards, so we should port it!Here's the PR: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10592
I am going to try to port this. Looks like a good way to get to know the codebase a little better.
The introduction ofNIX_ABORT_ON_WARN
in the PR seems a bit arbitrary given that it isn't done for any of the other settings. 🤔Edit: never mind, it makes sense after reading https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/306026 and we should add it, too.
A small refactoring first: https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/2245
we've already started a bunch of refactoring of this unholy mess, see eg
cl/2225
hm… better to wait for you to be done then, I suppose.
This issue was mentioned on Gerrit on the following CLs:
I abandoned the previous small refactoring, so 2248 is now the full feature.
