Eelco Dolstra	80faa2f98a	* In nix-store: change --build' back to --realise'. Also brought ... back the query flag `--force-realise'. * Fixed some of the tests.	2005-01-25 10:55:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	8f1dcdfc0a	* Make sure that no build hook is set by default in the tests. ... * Don't use `seq' - some primitive, obsolete operating systems (Darwin) don't have it.	2004-08-19 09:09:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	c8d3882cdc	* True parallel builds. Nix can now run as many build jobs in ... parallel as possible (similar to GNU Make's `-j' switch). This is useful on SMP systems, but it is especially useful for doing builds on multiple machines. The idea is that a large derivation is initiated on one master machine, which then distributes sub-derivations to any number of slave machines. This should not happen synchronously or in lock-step, so the master must be capable of dealing with multiple parallel build jobs. We now have the infrastructure to support this. TODO: substitutes are currently broken.	2004-05-11 18:05:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	f044ccf702	* 1000th revision! ... * A test to verify that locking of output paths (caused by concurrent invocations of Nix) works correctly.	2004-05-04 13:56:30 +00:00
