* Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.
...
With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented
(NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).

* Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail of
...
list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold
function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22 14:46:36 +00:00

* New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check for
...
attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute
set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They
differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is
an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)

...
regular files into memory all at once.

* Supply the 64-bit ATerm patch, but don't apply it (since that
...
requires rerunning Autoconf/Automake). Interested users should do
that themselves.

NARs. Fixes the impurity of nix-push (NIX-21).

* `optimise-store.pl' reduces disk space consumption by hard-linking
...
all identitical files in the Nix store to each other. (Previously
it only computed the size that would be saved by doing so.)

* `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).
$ ./show-duplication.pl /nix/var/nix/profiles/default
gcc 11
3.3.6 19293318
3.4.4 21425257
...
average 14942970, waste 149429707
coreutils 6
...
average package duplication 1.87628865979381, total size 3486330471, total waste 1335324237, 38.3017114443825% wasted
This utility is useful for measuring the cost in terms of disk space
of the Nix approach.

* nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /

* 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...
* Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big
garbage collector lock...").
* Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary
anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.
2006-09-14 22:30:33 +00:00

* 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.

7974aae81c
* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the store
...
and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write
builders inside a Nix expression, e.g.,
stdenv.mkDerivation {
builder = "
source $stdenv/setup
...
";
...
}

bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution
isn't quite right...)
