545145cd58 * normaliseFState() now locks all output paths prior to building, thus 
ensuring that simultaneous invocations of Nix don't clobber
  each other's  builds.

* Fixed a bug in `make install'.

4a013962bd * Started using Berkeley DB environments. This is necessary for 
transaction support (but we don't actually use transactions yet).

8846465934 * Get garbage collection and cache population to work *properly*. 
Renamed `fstateRefs' to `fstateRequisites'.  The semantics of this
  function is that it returns a list of all paths necessary to realise
  a given expression.  For a derive expression, this is the union of
  requisites of the inputs; for a slice expression, it is the path of
  each element in the slice.  Also included are the paths of the
  expressions themselves.  Optionally, one can also include the
  requisites of successor expressions (to recycle intermediate
  results).

* `nix-switch' now distinguishes between an expression and its normal
  form.  Usually, only the normal form is registered as a root of the
  garbage collector.  With the `--source-root' flag, it will also
  register the original expression as a root.

* `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--keep-successors' which
  causes successors not to be included in the list of garbage paths.

* `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--invert' which will print all
  paths that should *not* be garbage collected.

949c4fa1a8 * `nix --help'. 
* `nix --query --graph' to print a dot dependency graph of derive
  expressions.

3509299aca * After building, scan for actual file system references as 
opposed to declared references.  This prunes the reference
  graph, thus allowing better garbage collection and more
  efficient derivate distribution.

e6363b05ae * Pass $(prefix) and other variables through -D..., not 
through config.h, to prevent silly Autoconf problems.

7dd91d3779 * Prebuilt package sharing. We allow transparent binary deployment by 
sharing package directories (i.e., the result of building a Nix
  descriptor).

  `nix-pull-prebuilts' obtains a list of all known prebuilts by
  consulting the paths and URLs specified in
  $prefix/etc/nix/prebuilts.conf.  The mappings ($pkghash,
  $prebuilthash) and ($prebuilthash, $location) are registered with
  Nix so that it can use the prebuilt with hash $prebuilthash when
  installing a package with hash $pkghash by downloading and unpacking
  $location.

  `nix-push-prebuilts' creates prebuilts for all packages for which no
  prebuilt is known to exist.  It can then optionally upload these
  to the network through rsync.

  `nix-[pull|push]-prebuilts' just provide a policy.  Nix provides the
  mechanism through the `nix [export|regprebuilt|regurl]' commands.

aa8fda4b54 * We no longer use nix-populate standalone, rather we use it as a 
build action for `system' packages (like system.fix) that have
  dependencies on all packages we want to activate.

  So the command sequence to switch to a new activation configuration
  of the system would be:

    $ fix -i .../fixdescriptors/system.fix
    ...
    system.fix -> 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f

    $ nix-switch 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f

* A nix-profile.sh script that can be included in .bashrc.

nix-instantiate.
