  • 79bb0008ec * `null' is a normal form. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-19 14:45:45 +0000
  • e6253b58cd * Escape codes to force line breaks to be ignored. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-18 21:32:15 +0000
  • 3f3c4cce5a * Added an extra escape code to signal "unimportant" messages. If a tree only has unimportant messages, it is collapsed by the default. * Also added an optional integer argument to the escape code for opening a nesting level to indicate lack of importance. If set, the tree is collapsed by default. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-18 21:04:14 +0000
  • 84c617966b * Collapsable trees. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-18 18:26:22 +0000
  • c2fc2c13c9 * Use unordered lists, which is more sensible semantically for representing tree structures. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-18 14:58:16 +0000
  • a784fd5792 * Don't use tables. Konqueror likes this much better. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-18 13:04:05 +0000
  • 8ce3dd4887 * Display the popup directly over the abbreviation. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-17 16:55:53 +0000
  • 8330c8202a * A simpler way of implementing the store reference popups, thanks to Martin and CSS guru Martijn Vermaat. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-17 16:52:48 +0000
  • b5539e7a30 * Store paths are now abbreviated in the generated HTML file. Hovering over the abbreviated path will reveal the full path. This probably only works in Mozilla. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-16 12:47:09 +0000
  • 9d2669d218 * Added a utility that can be used to produce nice HTML pages from Nix build logs. The program log2xml' converts a Nix build log (read from standard input) into XML file that can then be converted to XHTML by the log2html.xsl' stylesheet. The CSS stylesheet `logfile.css' is necessary to make it look good. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-15 21:51:14 +0000
  • beda10f5a2 * Make perl a dependency of Nix. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-15 15:23:53 +0000
  • a5619f1dff * Set the NIX_STORE and NIX_BUILD_TOP environment variables in builders to point to the store and the temporary build directory, respectively. Useful for purity checking. * Also set TEMPDIR, TMPDIR, TEMP, and TEMP to NIX_BUILD_TOP to make sure that tools in the builder store temporary files in the right location. Eelco Dolstra 2004-03-12 10:45:08 +0000
  • 7f0ed370da * Use $(storedir) instead of $(prefix)/store. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-20 11:32:30 +0000
  • dbf547645d * Resolve an ambiguity between ifs and attribute selection, e.g., `if b then x else y.z'. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-19 13:11:12 +0000
  • 86b7efbdbe * Don't build ATerm library if we don't need to. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-16 16:48:06 +0000
  • 0dfdafdf6d * Allow linking against an external Berkeley DB / ATerm library. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-16 16:37:16 +0000
  • f34de12140 * Allow the location of the store to be specified (--with-store-dir). * Do not create stuff in localstatedir when doing `make install' (since we may not have write access). In general, installation of constant code/data should be separate from the initialisation of mutable state. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-16 15:23:19 +0000
  • fbc48a469c * Inherited attributes in recursive attribute sets are in scope of the non-inherited attributes. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-16 09:18:35 +0000
  • 76c0e85929 * The environment variable NIX_ROOT can now be set to execute Nix in a chroot() environment. * A operation `--validpath' to register path validity. Useful for bootstrapping in a pure Nix environment. * Safety checks: ensure that files involved in store operations are in the store. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-14 21:44:18 +0000
  • 6f5a5ea5ea * Regression fix: realise substitutes and detect cycles. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-13 10:45:09 +0000
  • 1ad9d11247 * Only include predecessors that are themselves being pushed. Otherwise the substitute mechanism can break in subtle ways. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-13 10:43:31 +0000
  • 00fe1a506f * When creating a new generation, also make the normal form of the derivation (i.e., the closure store expression) a root of the garbage collector. This ensures that running `nix-collect-garbage --no-successors' is safe. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-11 10:25:31 +0000
  • 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. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-10 16:14:47 +0000
  • 6551b36790 * Print what generation we are switching to; honour --dry-run flag. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-10 13:42:58 +0000
  • 0616b7feea * Documented the most important nix-env flags. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-10 11:51:16 +0000
  • 618aa69b01 * In --upgrade': added flags --lt', --leq', --always' to specify whether we want to upgrade if the current version is less than the available version (default), when it is less or equal, or always. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-09 11:59:39 +0000
  • 06a75a7e0c * A command `--switch-generation' to switch to a specific generation of the current profile, e.g., Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-08 14:07:43 +0000
  • b8675aee54 * In `--list-generations', show what the current generation is. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-06 16:16:55 +0000

  • 49bafe1faf * Use the profile pointed to by ~/.nix-profile if no --profile argument is specified. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-06 10:59:06 +0000
  • 66e94d3275 * Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g., Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-06 10:30:20 +0000
  • d445da7a7b * Extended the `inherit' syntax to optionally select attributes from other attribute sets, rather than the current scope. E.g., Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-04 17:23:26 +0000
  • 9d25466b34 * An attribute set update operator (//). E.g., Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-04 16:49:51 +0000

  • 9b44480612 * Use a map to lookup primops. * Various performance improvements in the evaluator. * Do not link against unused (and missing!) libraries (-lsglr, etc.). Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-04 16:03:29 +0000
  • c4f7ae4aa5 * Verify that all variables in a Nix expression are defined. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-03 14:45:34 +0000
  • 1c9c0a5a46 * Added syntactic sugar to the construction of attribute sets to `inherit' variables from the surrounding lexical scope. Eelco Dolstra 2004-02-02 21:39:33 +0000

  • cdb50886f4 * Typos. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-22 09:35:35 +0000
  • 3c4bc7276a * Added a note about adding /nix/etc/profile.d/nix.sh to the profile. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-22 09:17:55 +0000

  • 1109ea0680 * Fixed a subtle uninitialised variable bug in ATermMaps copied from ATermMaps. Found thanks to Valgrind! Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-21 14:49:32 +0000
  • 47f19b6293 * Absolutise the specified path in --import' and --profile'. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-20 20:36:58 +0000

  • 291030b900 * Remove debug message. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-15 20:58:44 +0000
  • 447089a5f6 * Catch SIGINT to terminate cleanly when the user tries to interrupt Nix. This is to prevent Berkeley DB from becoming wedged. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-15 20:23:55 +0000
  • 08719c6c97 * Obsolete. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-15 20:13:54 +0000
  • 55e11bc0d3 * In nix-env --query --status', determine the I' bit by looking at the output path of a derivation, not the path of its store expression. This ensures that changes that affect the path of the store expression but not the output path, do not affect the `installed' state of a derivation. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-15 14:43:00 +0000
  • 9a404e45c9 * Synchronous nix-pull' with nix-push'. * Use curl instead of wget. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-14 14:20:33 +0000
  • 16f9b133ec * Improved `nix-push': it now uses HTTP PUT (instead of rsync) to copy files. Target location is no longer hard-coded; it accepts a number of URLs on the command line. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-14 11:13:08 +0000

  • 7959354379 * Upgraded to Berkeley DB 4.2.52. The main advantage of 4.2 is that it automatically removes log files when they are no longer needed. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-07 15:53:14 +0000
  • abe8c8c2aa * Include images/ in distribution. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-07 10:59:38 +0000

  • 2f0b93904b * Install images. Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-06 16:35:07 +0000
  • 4a373a3e9a * Implemented Eelco V.'s `nix-env -I' command to specify the default path of the Nix expression to be used with the import, upgrade, and query commands. For instance, Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-05 16:26:43 +0000
  • f83c5e3e5f * Implemented Eelco V.'s `-p' command to switch profiles. It switches the symlink ~/.nix-userenv to the given argument (which defaults to .../links/current). /etc/profile.d/nix-profile creates this symlink if it doesn't exist yet. Example use: Eelco Dolstra 2004-01-05 11:18:59 +0000
