This combines the *.o into a big .o producing one translation unit.
This preserve our unused static initializers, as specified in the C++
standard:
If no variable or function is odr-used from a given translation
unit, the non-local variables defined in that translation unit may
never be initialized (this models the behavior of an on-demand
dynamic library).
Note that this is very similar to how the --whole-archive flag works.
One advantage of this is that users of the final .a library don’t have
to worry about specifying --whole-archive, or that we have unused
static initializers at all!
Needed so that we can include it as a logger in loggers.cc without
adding a dependency on nix
This also requires moving names.hh to libutil to prevent a circular
dependency between libmain and libexpr
The `remote-store` test loads the `user-env` one to test nix-env when
using the daemon, but actually does it incorrectly because every test
starts (in `common.sh`) by resetting the value of `NIX_REMOTE`, meaning
that the `user-env` test will never use the daemon.
Fix this by setting `NIX_REMOTE_` before sourcing `user-env.sh` in the
`remote-store` test, so that `NIX_REMOTE` is correctly set inside the
test
Make the printing of the build logs systematically go through the
logger, and replicate the behavior of `no-build-output` by having two
different loggers (one that prints the build logs and one that doesn't)
Add a new `--log-format` cli argument to change the format of the logs.
The possible values are
- raw (the default one for old-style commands)
- bar (the default one for new-style commands)
- bar-with-logs (equivalent to `--print-build-logs`)
- internal-json (the internal machine-readable json format)
bool coerces anything >0 to true, but in the future we may have other
file ingestion methods. This shows a better error message when the
“recursive” byte isn’t 1.
As `git fetch` may chose to interpret refspec to it's liking, ensure that we
only pass refs that begin with `refs/` as is, otherwise, prepend them with
`refs/heads`. Otherwise, branches named `heads/foo` (I know it's bad, but it's
allowed), would be fetched as `foo`, instead of `heads/foo`.
The previous regex was too strict and did not match what git was allowing. It
could lead to `fetchGit` not accepting valid branch names, even though they
exist in a repository (for example, branch names containing `/`, which are
pretty standard, like `release/1.0` branches).
The new regex defines what a branch name should **NOT** contain. It takes the
definitions from `refs.c` in https://github.com/git/git and `git help
check-ref-format` pages.
This change also introduces a test for ref name validity checking, which
compares the result from Nix with the result of `git check-ref-format --branch`.
The idea is it's always more flexible to consumer a `Source` than a
plain string, and it might even reduce memory consumption.
I also looked at `addToStoreFromDump` with its `// FIXME: remove?`, but
the worked needed for that is far more up for interpretation, so I
punted for now.
On macOS the system tar has builtin support for lzma while xz isn't
available as a separate binary. There's no builtin package manager
there available either so having to install lzma (without nix) would be
rather painful.
