This uses `git check-ignore` to determine if files are ignored before
attempting to add them in `putFile`.
We also add a condition to the `fetchFromWorkdir` filter to always add
the `flake.lock` file, even if it's not tracked. This is necessary to
resolve inputs.
This fixes#8854 without `git add --force`.
GitArchiveInputScheme now streams tarballs into a Git repository. This
deduplicates data a lot, e.g. when you're fetching different revisions
of the Nixpkgs repo. It also warns if the tree hash returned by GitHub
doesn't match the tree hash of the imported tarball.
We occasionnally commit to git repositories (like with `nix flake update --commit-lock-file`).
This shells out to `git commit`, which might wait for user input (for a signing key passphrase for instance).
Disable the progress bar while this is running to make sure that the
user can enter it.
This avoids repeated copying of the same source tree between Nix
invocations. It requires the accessor to have a "fingerprint" (e.g. a
Git revision) that uniquely determines its contents.
All OS and IO operations should be moved out, leaving only some misc
portable pure functions.
This is useful to avoid copious CPP when doing things like Windows and
Emscripten ports.
Newly exposed functions to break cycles:
- `restoreSignals`
- `updateWindowSize`
The new `MemorySourceAccessor` rather than being a slightly lossy flat
map is a complete in-memory model of file system objects.

This adds publicKeys as an optional fetcher input attribute to flakes
and builtins.fetchGit to provide a nix interface for the json-encoded
`publicKeys` attribute of the git fetcher.

This implements the git input attributes `verifyCommit`, `keytype`,
`publicKey` and `publicKeys` as experimental feature
`verified-fetches`. `publicKeys` should be a json string.
This representation was chosen because all attributes must be of type bool,
int or string so they can be included in flake uris (see definition of
fetchers::Attr).
Instead of making a complete copy of the repo, fetching the
submodules, and writing the result to the store (which is all
superexpensive), we now fetch the submodules recursively using the Git
fetcher, and return a union accessor that "mounts" the accessors for
the submodules on top of the root accessor.
We now have `schemeName` and `allowedAttrs` functions for this purpose.
We look up the schema with the former; we restrict the set of input
attributes with the latter.
Committing a lock file using markFileChanged() required the input to
be writable by the caller in the local filesystem (using the path
returned by getSourcePath()). putFile() abstracts over this.
MemoryInputAccessor is an in-memory virtual filesystem that returns
files like <nix/fetchurl.nix>. This removes the need for special hacks
to handle those files.
Two changes:
* The (probably unintentional) hack to handle paths as tarballs has
been removed. This is almost certainly not what users expect and is
inconsistent with flakeref handling everywhere else.
* The hack to support scp-style Git URLs has been moved to the Git
fetcher, so it's now supported not just by fetchTree but by flake
inputs.
Special-casing the file name is rather ugly, so we shouldn't do
that. So now any {file,http,https} URL is handled by
TarballInputScheme, except for non-flake inputs (i.e. inputs that have
the attribute `flake = false`).
Whereas `ContentAddressWithReferences` is a sum type complex because different
varieties support different notions of reference, and
`ContentAddressMethod` is a nested enum to support that,
`ContentAddress` can be a simple pair of a method and hash.
`ContentAddress` does not need to be a sum type on the outside because
the choice of method doesn't effect what type of hashes we can use.

Previously, for tarball flakes, we recorded the original URL of the
tarball flake, rather than the URL to which it ultimately
redirects. Thus, a flake URL like
http://example.org/patchelf-latest.tar that redirects to
http://example.org/patchelf-<revision>.tar was not really usable. We
couldn't record the redirected URL, because sites like GitHub redirect
to CDN URLs that we can't rely on to be stable.
So now we use the redirected URL only if the server returns the
`x-nix-is-immutable` or `x-amz-meta-nix-is-immutable` headers in its
response.
* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs
99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:
- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note
- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
per-definition docs
Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.
Picking up from #8133
* Fix two things from comments
* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`
* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs
This will render correctly.
This introduces the SourcePath type from lazy-trees as an abstraction
for accessing files from inputs that may not be materialized in the
real filesystem (e.g. Git repositories). Currently, however, it's just
a wrapper around CanonPath, so it shouldn't change any behaviour. (On
lazy-trees, SourcePath is a <InputAccessor, CanonPath> tuple.)
We hide them in various ways if the experimental feature isn't enabled.
To do this, we had to move the experimental features list out of
libnixstore, because the setting machinary itself depends on it. To do
that, we made a new `ExperimentalFeatureSettings`.
