Théophane Hufschmitt fb67c1a1fb Factor out the generation of the profile/channel directory
Make sure that all the code paths use the same one, and that the
backwards-compatibility measures are probably in place when needed

Add a test for nix copy over ssh
Check that nix copy can copy stuff, refuses to copy unsigned paths by
default, and doesn't hide the ssh password prompt.

stripIndentation() doesn't support tabs, so the entire markdown ended
up indented and thus rendered as a code block.

Why not 'nix help stores'? Well, 'nix help <arg>' already means 'show

Eelco Dolstra 16db8dc96f Open slave pseudoterminal before CLONE_NEWUSER
Otherwise, when running as root and user namespaces are enabled,
opening the slave fails with EPERM.

Fixes "opening pseudoterminal slave: Permission denied" followed by a
hang (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/213104244), and "error: getting
sandbox mount namespace: No such file or directory" (#8072), which
happens when the child fails very quickly and consequently reading
/proc/<child>/ns fails.

John Ericson 4607ac7aed Fix handling of experimental features mid-parse
If we conditionally "declare" the argument, as we did before, based upon
weather the feature is enabled, commands like

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

won't work, because the experimental feature isn't enabled until *after*
we start parsing.

Instead, allow arguments to also be associated with experimental
features (just as we did for builtins and settings), and then the
command line parser will filter out the experimental ones.

Since the effects of arguments (handler functions) are performed right
away, we get the required behavior: earlier arguments can enable later
arguments enabled!

There is just one catch: we want to keep non-positional
flags...non-positional. So if

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

works, then

    nix --thing-gated-on-foo --experimental-features=foo ...

should also work.

This is not my favorite long-term solution, but for now this is
implemented by delaying the requirement of needed experimental features
until *after* all the arguments have been parsed.

John Ericson aa663b7e89 Mark experimental features on settings
We hide them in various ways if the experimental feature isn't enabled.

To do this, we had to move the experimental features list out of
libnixstore, because the setting machinary itself depends on it. To do
that, we made a new `ExperimentalFeatureSettings`.
2023-03-20 11:06:40 -04:00
John Ericson 296831f641 Move enabled experimental feature to libutil struct
This is needed in subsequent commits to allow the settings and CLI args
infrastructure itself to read this setting.
