When reviewing old PRs, I found that #9997 adds some code to ensure one
particular assert is always present. But, removing asserts isn't
something we do in our own release builds either in the flake here or in
nixpkgs, and is plainly a bad idea that increases support burden,
especially if other distros make bad choices of build flags in their Nix
packaging.
For context, the assert macro in the C standard is defined to do nothing
if NDEBUG is set.
There is no way in our build system to set -DNDEBUG without manually
adding it to CFLAGS, so this is simply a configuration we do not use.
Let's ban it at compile time.
I put this preprocessor directive in src/libutil.cc because it is not
obvious where else to put it, and it seems like the most logical file
since you are not getting a usable nix without it.
`NIX_HARDENING_ENABLE` causes `_FORTIFY_SOURCE` to be defined.
This isn't compatible with `-O0`, and the compiler will happily remind
us about it at every call, spamming the terminal with warnings and stack
traces.
We don't really care hardening in that case, so just disable it if we
pass `OPTIMIZE=0`.
Just `stdenv.isDarwin` isn't enough because it doesn't apply to the
build platform, which mean that cross packages building from darwin to
another platform will have `isDarwin` set to false.
Replace it by `stdenv.buildPlatform.isDarwin`.
Instead, serialize as NAR and send that over, then rehash sever side.
This is alorithmically simpler, but comes at the cost of a newer
parameter to `Store::addToStoreFromDump`.

desugaring inherit-from to syntactic duplication of the source expr also
duplicates side effects of the source expr (such as trace calls) and
expensive computations (such as derivationStrict).

Continuation of 5334c9c792 and 837b889c41.
After commit 91b6833686 (" Move tests to separate directories, and
document"), previously-built test executables are now tracked by Git,
which is annoying for developers.
This patch add .gitignore rules to ignore the obsolete test directories
to solve such problem and enhance developer experience.
This seems to have found one actual bug in fs-sink.cc: the symlink case
was falling into the regular file case, which can't possibly be
intentional, right?
Docker uses "latest" as the default label instead of "master".
This change will allow to docker run ghcr.io/nixos/nix without having to
specify the label.
It keeps the :master label on docker hub for back-compat.
