151e61fa5a * By default, `nix-env -i' now deletes previously installed
derivations with names matching the derivations being installed.
  The option `--preserve-installed / -P' overrides this behaviour.

24286e15c9 * `nix-env -u' now allows a specific version to be specified when
upgrading.

  This fixes a bug reported by Martin:

    $ nix-env -i foo-1.0
    $ nix-env -u foo-1.0
    upgrading foo-1.0 to foo-1.1

92e832348d * Lots of manual stuff. Reference pages for most Nix commands.
* nix-pull now requires the full url to the manifest, i.e.,
  `/MANIFEST/' is no longer automatically appended.
* nix-prefetch-url works again.

66e94d3275 * Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g.,
default -> default-94-link
  default-82-link -> /nix/store/cc4480...
  default-83-link -> /nix/store/caeec8...
  ...
  default-94-link -> /nix/store/2896ca...
  experimental -> experimental-2-link
  experimental-1-link -> /nix/store/cc4480...
  experimental-2-link -> /nix/store/a3148f...

* `--profile' / `-p' -> `--switch-profile' / `-S'
* `--link' / `-l' -> `--profile' / `-p'
* The default profile is stored in $prefix/var/nix/profiles.
  $prefix/var/nix/links is gone.  Profiles can be stored anywhere.
* The current profile is now referenced from ~/.nix-profile, not
  ~/.nix-userenv.
* The roots to the garbage collector now have extension `.gcroot', not
  `.id'.
