-Subject: [PATCH] Added support for passing an (impure) NIX_BUILD_CORES variable to build expressions.
-
-This patch adds the configuration file variable "build-cores" and the
-command line argument "--cores". These settings specify the number of
-CPU cores to utilize for parallel building within a job, i.e. by passing
-an appropriate "-j" flag to GNU Make. The default value is 1, which
-means that parallel building is *disabled*. If the number of build cores
-is specified as 0 (synonymously: "guess" or "auto"), then the actual
-value is supposed to be auto-detected by builders at run-time, i.e by
-calling the nproc(1) utility from coreutils.
-
-The environment variable $NIX_BUILD_CORES is available to builders, but
-the contents of that variable does *not* influence the hash that goes
-into the $out store path, i.e. the number of build cores to be utilized
-can be changed at will without requiring any re-builds.
