Merge pull request #9948 from obsidiansystems/no-canon-path-from-cwd
Get rid of `CanonPath::fromCwd`

ecf8b12d60 group inherit by source during Expr::show
for plain inherits this is really just a stylistic choice, but for
inherit-from it actually fixes an exponential size increase problem
during expr printing (as may happen during assertion failure reporting,
on during duplicate attr detection in the parser)

6c08fba533 use the same bindings print for ExprAttrs and ExprLet
this also has the effect of sorting let bindings lexicographically
rather than by symbol creation order as was previously done, giving a
better canonicalization in the process.

1f542adb3e add ExprAttrs::AttrDef::chooseByKind
in place of inherited() — not quite useful yet since we don't
distinguish plain and inheritFrom attr kinds so far.

Add a note about lists values.md
There's probably more that can be said, but I thought it might be helpful to put something here about how to access elements of a list for folks coming from more or less any other programming language. If this is rarely used, it might be nice to add to the documentation something about why it's rarely used.

Fix link to derivation in string interpolation doc

removed, so it is currently not displayed as a link.

Restore manual pages
Commit d536c57e87 inadvertedly broke build and
installation of all non-autogenerated manual pages (in particular, all the ones
documenting the stable CLI), by moving the definition of the man-pages variable
in doc/manual/local.mk after its usage in mk/lib.mk. Move including the former
earlier so that the correct order is restored.

Don't spam the user with "running post-build-hook" messages. It's up
to the post-build hook if it has something interesting to say.

60045f9c96 add clickable anchor links
how the different invocations relate to each other seems be
confusing, which is relatable because one has to wire it up in your head
while reading. an explicit reference should make it unambiguous and
easier to notice due to links being highlighted.

Don't hardcode the -O2 compiler flag
autoconf authors apparently decided that setting `-O2` by default was a good idea. I disagree, and Nix has its own way of deciding that (with `OPTIMIZE={0,1}`). Explicitly set `CFLAGS` and `CXXFLAGS` in the configure script to disable that behaviour.

Rename hintfmt to HintFmt 2024-02-08 11:58:25 -08:00

Cleanup fmt.hh
When I started contributing to Nix, I found the mix of definitions and
names in `fmt.hh` to be rather confusing, especially the small
difference between `hintfmt` and `hintformat`. I've renamed many classes
and added documentation to most definitions.

- `formatHelper` is no longer exported.
- `fmt`'s documentation is now with `fmt` rather than (misleadingly)
  above `formatHelper`.
- `yellowtxt` is renamed to `Magenta`.

  `yellowtxt` wraps its value with `ANSI_WARNING`, but `ANSI_WARNING`
  has been equal to `ANSI_MAGENTA` for a long time. Now the name is
  updated.
- `normaltxt` is renamed to `Uncolored`.
- `hintfmt` has been merged into `hintformat` as extra constructor
  functions.
- `hintformat` has been renamed to `hintfmt`.
- The single-argument `hintformat(std::string)` constructor has been
  renamed to a static member `hintformat::interpolate` to avoid pitfalls
  with using user-generated strings as format strings.

4687beecef Get rid of CanonPath::fromCwd
As discussed in the last Nix team meeting (2024-02-95), this method
doesn't belong because `CanonPath` is a virtual/ideal absolute path
format, not used in file systems beyond the native OS format for which a
"current working directory" is defined.
