2019-01-13	Treat plain derivation paths in context as normal paths.	Shea Levy
	Previously, plain derivation paths in the string context (e.g. those that arose from builtins.storePath on a drv file, not those that arose from accessing .drvPath of a derivation) were treated somewhat like derivaiton paths derived from .drvPath, except their dependencies weren't recursively added to the input set. With this change, such plain derivation paths are simply treated as paths and added to the source inputs set accordingly, simplifying context handling code and removing the inconsistency. If drvPath-like behavior is desired, the .drv file can be imported and then .drvPath can be accessed. This is a backwards-incompatibility, but storePath is never used on drv files within nixpkgs and almost never used elsewhere.
2018-03-20	Make <nix/buildenv.nix> a builtin builder	Eelco Dolstra
	This avoids sandbox annoyances.
2018-02-08	Add plugins to make Nix more extensible.	Shea Levy
	All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix supports.
2017-10-02	Reverse retry logic to retry in all but a few cases	Dan Peebles
	It was getting too much like whac-a-mole listing all the retriable error conditions, so we now retry by default and list the cases where retrying is almost certainly hopeless.
2017-06-06	Always use the Darwin sandbox	Eelco Dolstra
	Even with "build-use-sandbox = false", we now use sandboxing with a permissive profile that allows everything except the creation of setuid/setgid binaries.
2017-05-31	OS X sandbox: Improve builtin sandbox profile	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, add rules to allow fixed-output derivations to access the network. These rules are sufficient to build stdenvDarwin without any __sandboxProfile magic.
2017-05-30	Darwin sandbox: Use sandbox-defaults.sb	Eelco Dolstra
	Issue #759. Also, remove nix.conf from the sandbox since I don't really see a legitimate reason for builders to access the Nix configuration.
2017-02-07	Add nix-perl package for the perl bindings	Shea Levy

2017-02-07	Merge branch 'nix-copy-closure-c++' of https://github.com/shlevy/nix	Eelco Dolstra

	Replaced by SSHStore.
2017-02-07	Remove build-remote.pl.in	Eelco Dolstra

2017-01-20	nix-copy-closure: Implement in C++.	Shea Levy
	Tests fail currently because the database is not given proper hashes in the VM
2016-11-10	build-remote: Implement in C++	Shea Levy

2016-10-17	.gitignore: catch up with perl -> c conversion	Alexander Ried

2016-08-11	buildenv: perl -> c++	Shea Levy

2016-08-10	Nuke nix-push.	Shea Levy
	Rarely used, nix copy replaces it.
2016-08-10	Remove nix-install-package.	Shea Levy
	Refs #831
2016-08-09	nix-build: Port to c++	Shea Levy
	This was a dumb line-for-line rewrite, because nix build/nix run/etc. will replace it.
2016-07-21	find-runtime-roots: fold into gc.cc	Shea Levy

2016-06-02	LocalStore: Allow the physical and logical store directories to differ	Eelco Dolstra
	This is primarily to subsume the functionality of the copy-from-other-stores substituter. For example, in the NixOS installer, we can now do (assuming we're in the target chroot, and the Nix store of the installation CD is bind-mounted on /tmp/nix): $ nix-build ... --option substituters 'local?state=/tmp/nix/var&real=/tmp/nix/store' However, unlike copy-from-other-stores, this also allows write access to such a store. One application might be fetching substitutes for /nix/store in a situation where the user doesn't have sufficient privileges to create /nix, e.g.: $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=/home/alice/nix/var&real=/home/alice/nix/store" nix-build ...
2016-04-25	Remove nix-log2xml	Eelco Dolstra

2016-04-11	Remove manifest support	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-22	New non-recursive, plain Make-based build system	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-14	Remove nix-setuid-helper	Eelco Dolstra
	AFAIK, nobody uses it, it's not maintained, and it has no tests.
2012-10-03	Rename nix-worker to nix-daemon	Eelco Dolstra
