Add missing docstring on InstallableCommand. Also, some of these were wrapped
when they're right next to a line longer than the unwrapped line, so we can just
unwrap them to save vertical space.
git show seems to print the entire tag message when being called on a tag
instead of a commit. git log instead always prints the correct timestamp
in my tests.
The error nix prints is: `error: stoull`.
Fixes
error: the content hash of flake '/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs-flake?ref=HEAD&rev=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000' doesn't match the hash recorded in the referring lockfile
Experimental features are now opt-in. There are currently two
experimental features: "nix-command" (which enables the "nix"
command), and "flakes" (which enables support for flakes). This will
allow us to merge experimental features more quickly, without
committing to supporting them indefinitely.
Typical usage:
$ nix build --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' nixpkgs#hello
In particular, when building a flake lock file, inputs like 'nixpkgs'
are now downloaded only once. Previously, it would fetch
https://api.github.com/repos/<owner>/<repo>/tarball/<ref> and then
later https://api.github.com/repos/<owner>/<repo>/tarball/<rev>, even
though they produce the same result.
Git and GitHub now also share a cache that maps revs to a store path
and other info.
Fixes
$ nix build
fatal: bad revision 'HEAD'
error: program 'git' failed with exit code 128
on a new flake. It is now detected as a dirty tree with revCount = 0.
For example, if the top-level flake depends on
"nixpkgs/release-19.03", and one of its dependencies depends on
"nixpkgs", then the latter will be mapped to "nixpkgs/release-19.03",
rather than whatever the default branch of "nixpkgs" is. Thus you get
only one "nixpkgs" dependency rather than two.
This currently only works in a breadth-first way, so the other way
around (i.e. if the top-level flake depends on "nixpkgs", and a
dependency depends on "nixpkgs/release-19.03") still results in two
"nixpkgs" dependencies.
If 'input.<name>.uri' changes, then the entry in the lockfile for
input <name> should be considered stale.
Also print some messages when lock file entries are added/updated.
So you now get
$ nix build
error: path '.' is not a flake (because it does not reference a Git repository)
rather than
$ nix build
error: unsupported argument '.'
Instead of a list, inputs are now an attrset like
inputs = {
nixpkgs.uri = github:NixOS/nixpkgs;
};
If 'uri' is omitted, than the flake is a lookup in the flake registry, e.g.
inputs = {
nixpkgs = {};
};
but in that case, you can also just omit the input altogether and
specify it as an argument to the 'outputs' function, as in
outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: ...
This also gets rid of 'nonFlakeInputs', which are now just a special
kind of input that have a 'flake = false' attribute, e.g.
inputs = {
someRepo = {
uri = github:example/repo;
flake = false;
};
};
With this patch, and this file I called `log.py`:
#!/usr/bin/env nix-shell
#!nix-shell -i python3 -p python3 --pure
import sys
from pprint import pprint
stack = []
timestack = []
for line in open(sys.argv[1]):
components = line.strip().split(" ", 2)
if components[0] != "function-trace":
continue
direction = components[1]
components = components[2].rsplit(" ", 2)
loc = components[0]
_at = components[1]
time = int(components[2])
if direction == "entered":
stack.append(loc)
timestack.append(time)
elif direction == "exited":
dur = time - timestack.pop()
vst = ";".join(stack)
print(f"{vst} {dur}")
stack.pop()
and:
nix-instantiate --trace-function-calls -vvvv ../nixpkgs/pkgs/top-level/release.nix -A unstable > log.matthewbauer 2>&1
./log.py ./log.matthewbauer > log.matthewbauer.folded
flamegraph.pl --title matthewbauer-post-pr log.matthewbauer.folded > log.matthewbauer.folded.svg
I can make flame graphs like: http://gsc.io/log.matthewbauer.folded.svg

Includes test cases around function call failures and tryEval. Uses
RAII so the finish is always called at the end of the function.
