9d2669d218 * Added a utility that can be used to produce nice HTML pages from Nix
build logs.  The program `log2xml' converts a Nix build log (read
  from standard input) into XML file that can then be converted to
  XHTML by the `log2html.xsl' stylesheet.  The CSS stylesheet
  `logfile.css' is necessary to make it look good.

  This is primarily useful if the log file has a *tree structure*,
  i.e., that sub-tasks such as the various phases of a build (unpack,
  configure, make, etc.) or recursive invocations of Make are
  represented as such.  While a log file is in principle an
  unstructured plain text file, builders can communicate this tree
  structure to `log2xml' by using escape sequences:

  - "\e[p" starts a new nesting level; the first line following the
    escape code is the header;

  - "\e[q" ends the current nesting level.

  The generic builder in nixpkgs (not yet committed) uses this.  It
  shouldn't be to hard to patch GNU Make to speak this protocol.

  Further improvements to the generated HTML pages are to allow
  collapsing/expanding of subtrees, and to abbreviate store paths (but
  to show the full path by hovering the mouse over it).

f34de12140 * Allow the location of the store to be specified (--with-store-dir).
* Do not create stuff in localstatedir when doing `make install'
  (since we may not have write access).  In general, installation of
  constant code/data should be separate from the initialisation of
  mutable state.

0791282b2f * Substitutes and nix-pull now work again.
* Fixed a segfault caused by the buffering of stderr.
* Fix now allows the specification of the full output path.  This
  should be used with great care, since it by-passes the normal hash
  generation.
* Incremented the version number to 0.4 (prerelease).

d072485d28 * Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create Nix
archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar).
* queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying
  the target path (which may be empty).
* Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix.  TODO: bootstrap
  Nix and install Nix as a Fix package.

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.
