522ecab9b8 Drop support for running nix-worker in "slave" mode
AFAIK nobody uses this, setuid binaries are evil, and there is no good
reason why people can't just run the daemon.

a562d544d8 When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual page
I.e. do what git does.  I'm too lazy to keep the builtin help text up
to date :-)

Also add ‘--help’ to various commands that lacked it
(e.g. nix-collect-garbage).

2001895f3d Add a --repair flag to ‘nix-store -r’ to repair derivation outputs
With this flag, if any valid derivation output is missing or corrupt,
it will be recreated by using a substitute if available, or by
rebuilding the derivation.  The latter may use hash rewriting if
chroots are not available.

9958bd6992 Add operation ‘nix-store --repair-path’
This operation allows fixing corrupted or accidentally deleted store
paths by redownloading them using substituters, if available.

Since the corrupted path cannot be replaced atomically, there is a
very small time window (one system call) during which neither the old
(corrupted) nor the new (repaired) contents are available.  So
repairing should be used with some care on critical packages like
Glibc.

95c74eae26 Allow dashes in identifiers
In Nixpkgs, the attribute in all-packages.nix corresponding to a
package is usually equal to the package name.  However, this doesn't
work if the package contains a dash, which is fairly common.  The
convention is to replace the dash with an underscore (e.g. "dbus-lib"
becomes "dbus_glib"), but that's annoying.  So now dashes are valid in
variable / attribute names, allowing you to write:

  dbus-glib = callPackage ../development/libraries/dbus-glib { };

and

  buildInputs = [ dbus-glib ];

Since we don't have a negation or subtraction operation in Nix, this
is unambiguous.

b9c2b4d5b4 Remove setting of the immutable bit
Using the immutable bit is problematic, especially in conjunction with
store optimisation.  For instance, if the garbage collector deletes a
file, it has to clear its immutable bit, but if the file has
additional hard links, we can't set the bit afterwards because we
don't know the remaining paths.

So now that we support having the entire Nix store as a read-only
mount, we may as well drop the immutable bit.  Unfortunately, we have
to keep the code to clear the immutable bit for backwards
compatibility.

b9124a5c33 Support having /nix/store as a read-only bind mount
It turns out that the immutable bit doesn't work all that well.  A
better way is to make the entire Nix store a read-only bind mount,
i.e. by doing

  $ mount --bind /nix/store /nix/store
  $ mount -o remount,ro,bind /nix/store

(This would typically done in an early boot script, before anything
from /nix/store is used.)

Since Nix needs to be able to write to the Nix store, it now detects
if /nix/store is a read-only bind mount and then makes it writable in
a private mount namespace.

2923b55f9d Delete paths in a component in topologically sorted order
The outputs of a derivation can refer to each other (even though they
cannot have cycles), so they have to be deleted in the right order.

6c4ac29917 Disable auto store optimisation for now
I've seen operations like "nix-store --import" take much longer on one
system.  So default to off until I've investigated this a bit further.

4fca02077c Handle gc-keep-outputs and gc-keep-derivations both enabled
If the options gc-keep-outputs and gc-keep-derivations are both
enabled, you can get a cycle in the liveness graph.  There was a hack
to handle this, but it didn't work with multiple-output derivations,
causing the garbage collector to fail with errors like ‘error: cannot
delete path `...' because it is in use by `...'’.  The garbage
collector now handles strongly connected components in the liveness
graph as a unit and decides whether to delete all or none of the paths
in an SCC.

479e9172b3 Build hook: Pass the timeout to the remote builder
Note that this will only work if the client has a very recent Nix
version (post 15e1b2c223), otherwise the

Supporting the non-chroot-build case will require more work (hash

295027f533 Include config.h before any other header
"config.h" must be included first, because otherwise the compiler
might not see the right value of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS.  We've had this
before; see 705868a8a9.  In this case,
GCC would compute a different address for ‘settings.useSubstitutes’ in
misc.cc because of the off_t in ‘settings’.

a9e6752bbd Include the output name in the GC root link
Output names are now appended to resulting GC symlinks, e.g. by
nix-build.  For backwards compatibility, if the output is named "out",
nothing is appended.  E.g. doing "nix-build -A foo" on a derivation
that produces outputs "out", "bin" and "dev" will produce symlinks
"./result", "./result-bin" and "./result-dev", respectively.

56e30e161c In the chroot, make all mounted filesystems private
This is required on systemd, which mounts filesystems as "shared"
subtrees.  Changes to shared trees in a private mount namespace are
propagated to the outside world, which is bad.
