Merge pull request #5588 from tweag/balsoft/xdg 
Follow XDG Base Directory standard
 2023-02-10 18:05:50 +01:00
Alexander Bantyev
2384d36083
A setting to follow XDG Base Directory standard 
XDG Base Directory is a standard for locations for storing various
files. Nix has a few files which seem to fit in the standard, but
currently use a custom location directly in the user's ~, polluting
it:

- ~/.nix-profile
- ~/.nix-defexpr
- ~/.nix-channels

This commit adds a config option (use-xdg-base-directories) to follow
the XDG spec and instead use the following locations:

- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/profile
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/defexpr
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/channels

If $XDG_STATE_HOME is not set, it is assumed to be ~/.local/state.

153ee460c5 primop: add readFileType, optimize readDir 
Allows checking directory entry type of a single file/directory.

This was added to optimize the use of `builtins.readDir` on some
filesystems and operating systems which cannot detect this information
using POSIX's `readdir`.

Previously `builtins.readDir` would eagerly use system calls to lookup
these filetypes using other interfaces; this change makes these
operations lazy in the attribute values for each file with application
of `builtins.readFileType`.

unsafeDiscardReferences 
Adds a new boolean structured attribute
`outputChecks.<output>.unsafeDiscardReferences` which disables scanning
an output for runtime references.

    __structuredAttrs = true;
    outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true;

This is useful when creating filesystem images containing their own embedded Nix
store: they are self-contained blobs of data with no runtime dependencies.

Setting this attribute requires the experimental feature
`discard-references` to be enabled.

0251d44cc2 Make ./mk/run-test.sh work by itself; add mk/debug-test.sh 
First, logic is consolidated in the shell script instead of being spread
between them and makefiles. That makes understanding what is going on a
little easier.

This would not be super interesting by itself, but it gives us a way to
debug tests more easily. *That* in turn I hope is much more compelling.
See the updated manual for details.
