a4d2b22c8c * Be stricter in verifying store paths. 2004-04-14 08:08:55 +00:00

76c0e85929 * The environment variable NIX_ROOT can now be set to execute Nix in a
chroot() environment.
* A operation `--validpath' to register path validity.  Useful for
  bootstrapping in a pure Nix environment.
* Safety checks: ensure that files involved in store operations are in
  the store.

447089a5f6 * Catch SIGINT to terminate cleanly when the user tries to interrupt
Nix.  This is to prevent Berkeley DB from becoming wedged.

  Unfortunately it is not possible to throw C++ exceptions from a
  signal handler.  In fact, you can't do much of anything except
  change variables of type `volatile sig_atomic_t'.  So we set an
  interrupt flag in the signal handler and check it at various
  strategic locations in the code (by calling checkInterrupt()).
  Since this is unlikely to cover all cases (e.g., (semi-)infinite
  loops), sometimes SIGTERM may now be required to kill Nix.

cff6fd22eb * Allow successors that don't exist but have a substitute.
* Integrity: check in successor / substitute registration whether
  the target path exists or has a substitute.
