e2a70b7ec0 * Magic attribute `exportReferencesGraph' that allows the references 
graph to be passed to a builder.  This attribute should be a list of
  pairs [name1 path1 name2 path2 ...].  The references graph of each
  `pathN' will be stored in a text file `nameN' in the temporary build
  directory.  The text files have the format used by `nix-store
  --register-validity'.  However, the deriver fields are left empty.

  `exportReferencesGraph' is useful for builders that want to do
  something with the closure of a store path.  Examples: the builders
  that make initrds and ISO images for NixOS.

  `exportReferencesGraph' is entirely pure.  It's necessary because
  otherwise the only way for a builder to get this information would
  be to call `nix-store' directly, which is not allowed (though
  unfortunately possible).

e40d4a5604 * Option --reregister' in nix-store --register-validity'. We need 
this in the NixOS installer (or in the buildfarm) to ensure that the
  cryptographic hash of the path contents still matches the actual
  contents.

ae6fb27f18 * `nix-store --read-log / -l PATH' shows the build log of PATH, if 
available.  For instance,

    $ nix-store -l $(which svn) | less

  lets you read the build log of the Subversion instance in your
  profile.

* `nix-store -qb': if applied to a non-derivation, take the deriver.

kind of notation for strings.

5744dd5480 * Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do, 
e.g.,

  $ nix-env -i -A subversion xorg.xorgserver

  The main advantage over using symbolic names is that using attribute
  names is unambiguous and much, much faster.
