* Clarify the documentation of foldl': That the arguments are forced
before application (?) of `op` is necessarily true. What is important
to stress is that we force every application of `op`, even when the
value turns out to be unused.
* Move the example before the comment about strictness to make it less
confusing: It is a general example and doesn't really showcase anything
about foldl' strictness.
* Add test cases which nail down aspects of foldl' strictness:
* The initial accumulator value is not forced unconditionally.
* Applications of op are forced.
* The list elements are not forced unconditionally.
After we've send "\2\n" to the parent, we can't send a serialized
exception anymore. It will show up garbled like
$ nix-build --store /tmp/nix --expr 'derivation { name = "foo"; system = "x86_64-linux"; builder = "/foo/bar"; }'
this derivation will be built:
/nix/store/xmdip0z5x1zqpp6gnxld3vqng7zbpapp-foo.drv
building '/nix/store/xmdip0z5x1zqpp6gnxld3vqng7zbpapp-foo.drv'...

While trying to use an alternate directory for my Nix installation, I
noticed that nix's output didn't reflect the updated state
directory. This patch corrects that and now prints the warning before
attempting to create the directory (if the directory creation fails,
it wouldn't have been obvious why nix was attempting to create the
directory in the first place).
With this patch, I now get the following warning:
warning: '/home/deck/.var/app/org.nixos.nix/var/nix' does not
exist, so Nix will use '/home/deck/.local/share/nix/root' as a
chroot store
The documentation for `parseDrvName` does not agree with the implementation when
the derivation name contains a dash which is followed by something that is
neither a letter nor a digit. This commit corrects the documentation to agree
with the implementation.
If we don't have any github token, we won't be able to fetch private
repos, but we are also more likely to run into API limits since
we don't have a token. To mitigate this only ever use the github api
if we actually have a token.
The current definition of `intersectAttrs` is incorrect:
> Return a set consisting of the attributes in the set e2 that also exist in the
> set e1.
Recall that (Nix manual, section 5.1):
> An attribute set is a collection of name-value-pairs (called attributes)
According to the existing description of `intersectAttrs`, the following should
evaluate to the empty set, since no key-value *pair* (i.e. attribute) exists in
both sets:
```
builtins.intersectAttrs { x=3; } {x="foo";}
```
And yet:
```
nix-repl> builtins.intersectAttrs { x=3; } {x="foo";}
{ x = "foo"; }
```
Clearly the intent here was for the *names* of the resulting attribute set to be
the intersection of the *names* of the two arguments, and for the values of the
resulting attribute set to be the values from the second argument.
This commit corrects the definition, making it match the implementation and intent.
Make sure that people who run Nix in non-interactive mode (and so don't have the possibility to interactively accept the individual flake configuration settings) are aware of this flag.
Fix#7086
These settings seem harmless, they control the same polling
functionality that timeout does, but with different behavior. Should
be safe for untrusted users to pass in.
I just had a colleague get confused by the previous phrase for good
reason. "valid" sounds like an *objective* criterion, e.g. and *invalid
signature* would be one that would be trusted by no one, e.g. because it
misformatted or something.
What is actually going is that there might be a signature which is
perfectly valid to *someone else*, but not to the user, because they
don't trust the corresponding public key. This is a *subjective*
criterion, because it depends on the arbitrary and personal choice of
which public keys to trust.
I therefore think "trustworthy" is a better adjective to use. Whether
something is worthy of trust is clearly subjective, and then "trust"
within that word nicely evokes `trusted-public-keys` and friends.
The history is not critical to the functionality of nix repl, so it's
enough to warn here, rather than refuse to start if the directory Nix
thinks the history should live in can't be created.

Remove the `verify TLS: Nix CA file = 'blah'` message that Nix used to print when fetching anything as it's both useless (`libcurl` prints the same info in its logs) and misleading (gives the impression that a new TLS connection is being established which might not be the case because of multiplexing. See #7011 )
